Hi My Dad.
I'm sure things will work out in time
What is your shave prep. That can be important especially for thick hair. I shave in the shower and it allows the hair to soften a bit before shaving. My shave in the shower is the last thing I do after washing. but you can also shave right after showering. Also you might try a glycerin soap to wash your head with. The point is...sometimes it is the prep and not the shave that is the problem . Next I would check my lather. Maybe that gel isn't working for ya.
Good luck. Prep that head man!
