    Default Jawline shave

    So I have a pretty bony face... I've always been pretty unsatisfied with the results I get on my jawline and I found something that works for me and I wanted to share.

    I always pull the skin of my jawline both up and down during the shave so I theoretically should be getting all of it... at least it seems that way, the soap/cream is gone in those areas..

    Nonetheless, I always finish the shaves and still feel some minor stubble on the jawline.

    I started just making one quick ATG pass over my jawline, especially on the side of my face directly under the ears. I don't pull the skin, I don't stretch anything at all, just one smooth glide over the area from bottom to top.

    I've been getting awesome results and the jawline is BBS. There may be something I'm overlooking with my old technique but this seems to work great so I'm going to keep it up until I find something that works better!

    Just thought I'd share, maybe someone can tell me why stretching and pulling never worked, maybe I'm just passing in the wrong directional path or something... who knows...

    I've run into the same issue several times myself, as I have a pretty square jaw. I've tried the ATG but coming over that "corner" can get pretty tricky, trying to stay fluid in adjusting the angle, but keeping the movement smooth at the same time. I'll attempt your Verizon and hopefully solve the mystery. Although I've achieved the BBS everywhere else. It can be frustrating having to go back over a minuscule spot.

    I can get my left jaw easily but my right is more difficult. I have to pull the skin really tight and then come from the direction of my nose across the jaw to the ear with kind of a scythe motion.
