I end up some days with lather quite thick, not so thick, masses of it, not so much. Not surprising because I rarely use the same soap/cream/brush combination or product/water ratio.
But I rarely have a poor shave.
I've seen videos with guys looking like Father Christmas and others with a thin smooth layer of lather. So just about anything probably works.
As for me, I like a fairly thick layer of lather for my first pass and settle for a little less for my second and third passes. I squeeze out what's left in my brush for a mini Father Christmas tidy up. I don't like my lather to be light and fluffy and I don't like it to be too thick - something between the two is what I aim for.
