Question for XTG shavers

I shave my head with a DE and I do 1 WTG pass and 1 XTG pass. I have somewhat sensitive skin so I avoid ATG shaving like the plague (not really I do it in certain areas cause I love the smoothness).

My question is when you guys do multiple XTG passes do you guys go in the same direction or reverse it ?
 
I do XTG in a crisscross pattern, if that make any sense. ATG on my head causes ingrowns, so I avoid it. Most of the time I now just use a Whal Balding clipper and call it good enough.
 
I shave a bit differently depending on how my skin feels. If it's been a while and my skin is oily, I go for full BBS (ATG+ATG touch up).

If I want to just look shaven, I just do two passes, WTG and XTG.

Often it's somewhere in between, and I probably need four passes to get near BBS if I shave regularly. When I do this, I do two XTGs. First XTG is from my ear to nose, and reverse on the third pass (second XTG).

I don't shave my head though, so I'm not sure my answer is of any interest.
 
yea big time I only did one XTG pass at a downward angle to take away any risk of an unintended ATG shave I'm going to the try the criss-cross pattern thanks.
