Thread: How to shave "valleys" nearby my chin ?

Funny that you said Dizzy Gillespie!! That is what I think every time I shave my cheeks. I puff them out to get a good shave. I also have to hold the razor with a chopping grip to get my right jawline cheek. The hair grows from the front of my face to my ear. On the left side it is straight down. WTG and then ATG.

Good suggestions. Let me also mention that there are razors with shorter blades - they may work better in some cases.

Cheers

I have a low spot on both sides of my neck too, I use the middle section of the razor to the heel to get them, seems I can get them better that way than trying to use the toe end of the blade. Just on my WTG pass though, going ATG is easy enough with the other half of the blade.

Thank you for all the tips. They are very informative and useful. When my wiskers grow again i will try to shave the "valleys" and use the techique you recommend. I have very sensitive skin but i notice that my straight irritates it less and less with every shave. These valleys are always very red after the shave but i will improve it.
It would be good to have a "shaving simulator" in the form of mannequin where the direction of hair growth could be adjusted freely
