My question is should we be doing four pass shaves for the ultimate in smoothness?
I can't because my face can't take it. Someone suggested five passes as a means of getting in more practice and learning faster but three is my limit.

Ironically, a two pass shave doesn't cut it for me either. For some strange reason one day I did the WTG and ATG, but forgot the XTG. When I realized what I had done I tried to do a "touch up" to get what I had missed and my face felt more irritated than usual.

I think if you continue with your three passes I think you'll get better and achieve the results you want. That's my experience anyway.
