    5) Have a look at this article from the Wiki. It'll explain a lot of those shaving passes and other techniques.

    6) Yep! Sometimes you'll remove all the hair at once, but because hair and skin are flexible you probably will need a few passes to clear it all off as what you're cutting shifts around a bit as you shave.

    7) Again, I dont think there is a specific time for it to take to get things down. The more I shave, the more I learn about how to tackle those problem areas.

    Just recently I found a way of tackling my chin that gets more of the stubble that grows around a scar I have there, from a bumper car steering wheel strangely enough..! The hair grows every which way around the scar, and this technique clears most of it off.

    Its all about finding the techniques that work for you, and that takes as long as it takes.

    If something isnt working though, dont keep doing it but try something else. The method you're using on your neck right now isnt optimal for you, so read the wiki article I linked, try re-mapping your beard and figure some different pass directions that hopefully will work better.

    Its all part of the fun..!

    But yes, if you keep down the road of trying things and altering/changing them to suit your beard then you'll get there..!

    Good luck and keep us posted!
