I'm a newbie. I just finished my fourth DE shave ever (NDC Gillette Tech w/Astra SP blades, badger brush and TOBS shave cream). But yesterday I read an article about face mapping and thought I'd give it a try. I printed out a face map and spent some time mapping my whisker - which seem to grow in every conceivable direction.
Unfortunately, the result of my face mapping lead to a pretty bad shave. I think the face map took my focus off the shave itself, and had me thinking about a variety of shave angles instead of simple up and down strokes. I'm probably too new at this to focus on anything other than technique...and not lopping part of my face off.
Just wanted to get your thoughts, and see what your experiences have been with face mapping.
