Whether shaving with a straight or DE, one of the recommendations is keeping the skin taut (sp?).
When shaving above the jawline, this can mean holding the opposite hand just above the sideburn to slightly stretch the skin.
Which way should you stretch the skin for the neck area? Does pulling below the neck (towards the chest) pull the hairs down, thus bad technique? Should I use my opposite hand to pull just above the jawline, angling the hairs upward?
I've got a goatee so I don't worry about the upper lip and jaw area.
