Note that I haven't shaved with a straight yet, as it is still with customs...
But anyway, I'm busy planning my first shave.

The whiskers on the side of my neck grow sideways, from the side of the neck (i.e. below the ear lobes) towards the adams apple. Hair growth at the front of the neck is straight down from the chin.

Shaving WTG down the front should be easy enough, but how do I hold the razor to do the WTG "sideways" stroke at the sides of my neck?

The most likely solution I've come up with is to extend the handle so that it's in line with the razor blade (i.e. one loooong razor) and shave with my right hand on the left neck, and the left hand on my right neck. Does that make sense? I can't think of any other way without the scales bumping into all sorts (like my collar bone).

Any opinions (especially from other folks with sideways neck hair growth) much appreciated!
