− | + | A "pass" refers to a shave that covers each part of the face and neck once. A shaver may make more than one pass when shaving. A pass may be with the direction that the hairs grow ("with the grain," or WTG), across the direction of hair growth ("across the grain," or XTG), or against the direction of hair growth ("against the grain," or ATG). | |

+ | If only part of the face is shaved, this is a "partial pass." A shaver may, for example, make a "partial XTG pass" on a troublesome part of the neck. Of course, one may speak casually of a "pass" when a partial pass is meant: "This morning I shaved WTG and XTG, then took a ATG pass at my upper lip and cut myself for my trouble." |
