Having some trouble here, given that it is not a flat surface. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks

Am answering here Ali in the hope someone else far more experienced will be motivated to do so also. Am relatively new to wet shaving (DE) & biggest problem(s) are doing the curve transition to neck area & getting a close shave in the area. Current best practice for myself is WTG, XTG both ways & WTG final pass as still picking up stubble (Gamechanger 84 SB). Have tried ATG here as a 4th pass, but only on the flatest area, this is pretty rough going & not worth it for me (difficult enough doing that on the cheeks). I can imagine using the Kamisori style razor for the area presents a whole new level of difficulty.

Wish I could give some advice, but I haven't done any straight shaving whatsoever.

Most issues with a difficult area are solved by pulling the skin one way to shave and then the other to get the curved skin on a flatter terrain. Eventually you'll get a better feel and may be able to complete the curve. Hope that makes sense. Sorry, it's all I got for ya.

Stretch, stretch and stretch.

Under no circumstances add any pressure to the blade.

Slick lather is more important than cushioning for straight shaving (even for extremely damaged sensative skin such as mine).

Oh, was stretching mentioned?
