Loading soap with a synthetic brush

Hey everyone,

Hope all is well.

I would like to get some tips on loading Soap with a synthetic brush.

I use plisson and Mama bears shaving soap.

However I have tried several techniques, but seem to have failed in all.

Technique 1:
- Bloom Soap
- Wet brush
- Squeeze out all water from brush and put bloomed water into another bowl and start loading.

However after a few secs it seems as though the brush isnt picking up soap...and its rather dry...so I add a few more drops of water and continue. once again after 20 secs it dries out and I repeat. This goes on for a minute and it seems fine on the brush and I go to the face...but by the second pass the lather is a bit thin and I can tell its not as protective.

Technique 2
- Bloom soap
- Wet brush
- give the brush 2 slight shakes
- put bloom water into another bowl
- start loading

Lather seems thin and dissipates easily.

Hong Kong has hard water so this might be an issue as well.

Any tips on loading soap with a synthetic brush would be nice!

Let me know
Thanks
Sam
