I am trying to master shaving with a straight razor. I am currently using the Tedalus Essence razor to hone my skills. I usually go for 3 passes (WTG, XTG, and ATG) and I am able to get a BBS on most areas of my face.
However, the hairs on my neck grow sideways. So technically XTG is WTG/ATG for the hairs on my neck. I am unable to find a way to hold the razor to shave XTG. Depending on how I hold the razor, the tang or the scales keep getting in the way. Holding the razor like a Kamisori only allows me to shave the Adam's apple.
That's why I was wondering if there is certain grip that allows you to shave XTG on the neck area. Please share with me your thoughts on the matter.
