Base of the neck: my Kryptonite!
I have been safety razor shaving for a few months now for one big reason: I cannot get the base of my neck close with a sr. I cannot seem to get it any where near close. I have course hair on my face and the hair at the base of my neck grows straight out away from my Adam's apple.
I cannot get it close and have yet to find a technique anywhere to do it, let alone a video that shows how to tackle it. To make matters worse, there is a crease in the trouble area that prevents a close shave here from xtg passes. It is also the most sensitive area on my face and having stubble there increases irritation and makes shaving that area even harder.
Could someone please help? I love sr shaving, but I'm right on the cusp of complete discouragement. I sr shaved daily for about 3 months and have had this problem consistently. :banghead:
