I’m at the point where I can get through my first WTG pass very nicely and finish with DE. My cheeks are amazingly smooth.
My big issue is getting my jaw line which grows horizontally from chin to ears. An XTG with a straight is kind of scary until I figure it out. It is necessary to get my jaws, I believe.

Forgive me off I've have already responded to this I think I drafted something very never hit send.... Its been a long week.
I have the same hair growth.
1) Two handed shave :
Pass 1: from top of cheek down and sweep round along jaw WTG Pulling skin upwards from above the blade. This pulls the jawline skin above the jawline.
Pass 2: Stroke 1 : Ear to mouth across cheek pulling from behind razor.
Stroke 2: collar bone to over jaw.
Pull bottom off neck downwards, shave upwards hallway up neck, then, as you proceed upwards switch your skin stretching to above the jaw from the cheek. This is the golden trick - you pull the skin really tight over the jaw so the lathered skin pulls all the way over. If the skin is tight enough the razor should just glide over.
1) One handed shave (Right hand).
Left side : Rock the heal to toe along the jaw from below. On the downwards pass from the check you kind of reshave from above with the lather you push down from the cheek.
Right side : top of jaw using the ball from a mouth to ear cheek pass, doubling up with an almost ATG pass diagonally across the neck.
Reverse this off you are left handed.
In all of this your mileage definitely will vary!! But I hope there is something of use.
