Thread: How many passes do you normally do?

I'm just curious to see what everyone's normal routine is like. I go WTG and XTG for my face, then WTG for my neck.

I normally do two passes.

WTG and XTG on my face.

WTG twice on my neck. I still cannot seem to find a way to get XTG on my neck as my hair grows north to south, so it is awkward.

My chin usually needs a little extra touching up, but that does not count as a pass.

I generally do 4 passes....WTG, ATG, XTG and the final pass is a very very light WTG pass and seems to make the shave last longer...almost a polishing pass....don't do much in the way of clean up.

My technique has improved to the point where I can get by with one on most of my face/neck but two maximum. Some days only the one. Depends on the razor.

If I'm shaving every day, I do WTG, XTG, and a little cleanup.

If I'm skipping days, I do WTG, XTG, and ATG.

Every day WTG then ATG except for the chin that get XTG.

I usually do two: WTG and XTG and then a few clean up swipes for any bits I missed.

I never do ATG as my skin is quite sensitive and the ATG pass sets my face on fire..!

I usually do two passes to get BBS. If it isn't enough then first thing to do is to get razor back to barber hone.

I usually go WTG for my first pass, then XTG on face only, then ATG on cheeks and neck area. It's around the lip area that I have to be the most focused and I do XTG around this area, sometimes going ATG lower lip.

for my daily shave i do one pass. WTG down my side burns XTG on my Cheeks and Jaw and WTG on my neck. Its not a BBS but close enough for my daily needs. I to 3 passes and maybe a touch up if i want a slicker than snot shave.
