I've been working on getting an irritation-free, perfectly smooth shave on my neck for a few months now. I can get it smooth, but I have to do several rounds of ATG-buffing which gives me quite a bit of irritation, and takes several weeks of going without shaving to get to go away fully. So my question is: what exactly causes this redness? I've tried many different blades, including ones that are known to be sharpest. I've also tried perfecting my angle and switching to a high blade rigidity razor, the Gillette New SC.
If anyone knows how to get a completely smooth, irritation free shave please let me know what worked for you.
