Are you making sure you are lathering well on the back of your neck? Looks like a reaction to a dry shave. Suggest laying off shaving that area for a couple days to let it heal, then prep it with a preshave oil to provide more lubrication for the blade.

Suggest laying off shaving that area for a couple days to let it heal, then prep it with a preshave oil to provide more lubrication for the blade. I am not an experienced enough shaver to say if I am lathering "well" or not but I only use a small amount of HeadSlick (about 3 pumps worth). In terms of a preshave oil, I don't actually know what that is? I use HeadShed and HeadWash before I apply HeadSlick.
Ok so I left it nearly an entire week and shaved again today and still the same issues. I am wondering if I need to start using a shaving cream designed for ultra sensitive skin as opposed to using headslick? I am also wondering if the 6-blade cartridges on my ATX is causing the problem, perhaps I should revert back to triple blades?
