Its natural for us to think of taking the blade to the stubble. We are probably better off thinking of making the stubble available to the blade with the way we stretch and stroke. Done right, no pressure beyond keeping the edge in contact w/ the skin is the rule. If you need to use pressure to do that - your stretch and stroke need changing.
If you need a hand w/ edges, PM me. 'Just the cost of return postage.
