    Here's my $0.02:

    Choose your most comfortable razor (I wouldn't recommend the slant or a straight during this time) and stick with that for at least a month.

    Shave daily and don't use a blade more than 3 times during this process.

    First work on getting a pretty close shave on the WTG and XTG passes. Less likely to catch resistance on your ATG pass.

    Use your slickest shaving soap/cream and make sure you have plenty of water in it to keep it moist during that third ATG pass.

    On your ATG keep the angle of the blade low and try to use a light touch.

    Then practice.

    See how that goes and let us all know how it works for you.

    ... Oh, and YES pulling the skin helps every time.

    May your lather be moist and slick, the sweep of your razor sure, and your edge always keen!
