I just wanted to know if using a high angle would ruin my blade's sharpness. I guess I will lower it a bit. I only use a high angle when going ATG on the neck and under my chin, not for the whole shave, don't misunderstand what I meant. My facial hair is very corse and I have been shaving since SIXTH grade. It also growths flat against my skin, making it hard for the blade to get under it sometimes. I think I need to try the stretching technique where you stretch the hair upward so it stands up.
