I have lately come to the conclusion that for me at least I need to just go very, very slow, keep working on very basic technique (light pressure, right angle, skin stretching) while just doing north-south passes for a while longer. I would like to get a closer shave at the jowl line and outside edges of my chin, but not at the expense of cutting my face to smithereens.
