Welcome Cam! Post your routine and we may be able to help even more.
My routine has changed a little since I started...
1. A quick 5 minute hot shower
2. Mach3 gel over the dome
3. Mach3 razor with the grain all over...
...this is where it starts to get frustrating coz after I have finished, my head most times still feels pretty stubbley...

4. Mach3 gel over the dome again
5. Mach3 razor AGAINST the grain all over...
...at this point I'm frustrated and cursing at why I wasted my time going with the grain before...

6. Back in shower
7. Ice cube all over to close pores
8. Nivea sftershave soothing lotion all over
All up it takes around 15 minutes.
SLOW .....LONG.....EVEN STROKES.....................wow that sounded bad. LOL....no but if you are rushing your blade across your noggin....slow down just a tad bit. I start in the front against the grain..right down the middle to the top ( crown ) of my head. one complete pass. Slowly..then i do the same from the back...start at the base of the neck ..up towards the top. I use the headblade and I have now mastered it to where when im in the back....( cause that is where the party is ...lol) I can start at the top of the neck and make one complete pass up over the ear and down to the side burn. Shaves it all off easily. Before..when i first started....going around the ear was the most difficult..now its just one pass and bingo...its gone. Just keep trying bro....you will get the hang of it and you will know your limits. Good Luck
