Thanked: 1Weird grain directions!
Hi guys,
It's been 2 weeks and thanks to you, a lot has been learned. Now I can say that my side burns and tight areas are almost BBS. However, under the chin, chin, all around the mouth I have razor burns/skin irritation. Both hurts and doesn't look good. I can't figure out how many passes I have to, and for that I do 6-8 passes on some parts. I use as little pressure as possible but dense areas like chin doesn't cut without a little push. There are really weird angle that I managed to donot WTG, not XTG and not ATG. It's like reverse (XTG+ATG)/2 angle(not the razor angle). I find the direction by feeling the remaining whiskers and go against them. Afterwards I use alum block and Nivea aftershave balsam. Before the shave I at least get hot shower(I even apply Nivea shaving gel in the shower for couple of minutes to soften, I don't use it for shave) sometimes even hot towel. Still sideburns are perfect, but the chin and jowl are reddish, irritated. So what now?
Thanks,
