Recently I have been watching a few shaving videos looking at technique etc with the latest being shaving ATG. However I can't help but notice how different people approach the task to get the same results. I find it interesting how other people's minds work differently and that relates to how they do things. One of the many things I like about SR shaving is that you can personalize it and really make the shaving experience all yours. Something I have seen is that people tend to develop a certain routine as to how they go about shaving their face, not the pre and post shave but the actual shave itself - what parts of your face do you hit first what parts last, how do you break down the sections of your face? … Why do you do it that way?

Some do one side of their face than the other, some start at the top and work down, some start at the bottom and work up, some go for the easy parts than the hard …

So how do YOU do it???

Me?
I start with the cheeks and jaw line, I then do the sides of my neck, under my chin, then my chin and upper lip. I always do the right side of each part than the left and change hands on each side.
When I am going WTG I use the same hand as the side I am working on, when I go XTG and ATG I use the opposite hand to the side I am working on.

The hands thing I got from videos and found it the most comfortable way, the actual order I shave my face in just kind of happened out of habit, I guess cause that is the way I shaved with a DE before using a straight.
