Facial hair growth is like a thumb print, no ones grows exactly the same. Getting to know the growth of your hair will enable you to get the best possible shave.
When starting out, there is a generic ‘order’ in which you can attempt to make your passes. This helps if you’re just getting started and a bit unsure where to begin.
Once you develop an understanding of the growth of your hair, you will develop what suits best for you.
The numbers state which order and the arrows depict what direction to shave in.
The first diagram shows stroke directions with the grain and the second diagram shows stroke directions against the grain.
If possible, stretch the skin in the opposite direction to which you’re shaving
