stevensj2-- I admire your diagramming efforts , but haven't you switched aggressive and forgiving on the top right?
That's what I thought, too. Basically cap == forgiving, bar == aggressive. Right?

No. Sorry for the poor wording (I was literally staring at my post for a matter of seconds trying to figure out the correct words ).
Here is a simple diagram to try and explain what I mean (sorry for the large size).
The graph shows the relative closeness of the shave in regards to angle and pressure, as well as how the risk for irritation increases depending on angle and pressure.

I do not wear a collar shirt. Only t-shirts.
I have to second the concerns of some of the others......I think the diagram is reverse

My experience is that your aggressivenss indicator is reversed.
I am having the same problem with neck irritation since I started using DEs. Its like a lot of little red dots. I started using sharp blades and it was limited to a small cluster on each side of my neck. Today I used crystals and its now all over my lower neck. Between this and my total inability to make lather Im getting discouraged.
Could this just be a too aggressive blade angle? or the blade? or bad lather?
Thanks
