Mapping hair growth is a great help and so is the technique as well. I found hot water works better for me than cold, also running a little hot water on the blade before I start seems to make a difference for me. I usually do two passes, one with grain and one across it. There are two places on my neck that I found I have to use a combination arched and scything stroke to catch. Just keep at it and you will figure it out eventually. Just be sure you pay attention as you do so that you can repeat it the next time.
I have started to really pay attention to my hair growth. I never really cared about it with my Mach 3 but I have now. I'm gonna try the cold water at least once to see what affect it has. Thanks for the advice.
