Lead with the toe, and also, Lead with the toe
If you have a razor honed by Lynn, unless there was some goof, it is ready to shave.
But if you are pulling the razor down across your face with the heel going first, then you are going to have rotten results.
Try to make each pass with the toe slightly ahead of the heel as you move the razor. On your cheek, going down, angle the razor so the toe is below the heel, and then move it straight down your cheek that way, keeping the toe ahead of the heel.
Try shorter strokes if this feels unnatural. Short strokes work best for me if I have a questionable razor or a difficult spot on my face. Go with the grain only until you get the hang of it.
DO NOT PUSH INTO your face. The motion is more of a wiping motion.
Leading with the toe in easy areas (cheek, neck) gets you started. If the razor is properly honed, you should also be able to move it down exactly horizontal, as you will still be catching the back slope of the teeth.
Remember to keep the pressure light, and be sure your prep is good. Your whiskers should be exposed to warm water and soap for at least 2 minutes continuously, more is better. Post shower is best.
