The key to a less irritated shave is great shave prep, sharp edge, no pressure, don't force the shave, and post shave treatment. There is no answer for all these but whatever works for you.

Welcome to SRP, my story was very similar, could shave with teh grain of my beard but would easily get razor burn or ingrown hairs. I was going to go DE but jumped to Straight Razor and so happy!...
