I am currently using a Muhle shaving bowl in stainless steel that I’d like to replace by something better… So my question is: what is your experience with shaving bowls and what would you recommend?
For example, I read a lot of good things about the wooden bowl of The Goodfellas Smile, but I wonder what it does in everyday use. Whipping up foam won't be a problem, I guess, but is it easy to maintain? Does it dry up quickly after use? What does it look like after a number of shaves?
Another bowl that I sometimes see passing by in SOTD is the Saponificio Varesino Shaving Grail. How do you use it? Apparently the handle is removable and there is also a wooden bottom piece allowing more air in the lather.
So what’s your opinion? What shaving bowl do you like best and why?
And... of course all tips, tricks and advice related to this subject are accepted in thanks.
Have a nice evening, everyone.
