That's pretty much against and around the grain.

I go front to back and then back to front. To go completely against the grain on my sides would be to go from the bottom to the top, but I still get smooth enough without doing that.

Yeah, this is what I was always wondering about too Tyler. That's the reason I have had the love/hate relation ship with my HB this whole time. It wasn't really the front, top, and back of the head giving me problems. I would hardly ever get nicked up there. It was the sides that were messing me up. Especially behind the ear, of course. But it's like I could never get the sides completely smooth unless I went up from the sideburn/ear line towards the crown of the head. But doing this with the HB, or any razor for that matter, always irritates the crap out of that area. So I've been trying like you said on here. Just front to back, back to front all around and it has made things less irritated on the sides. But they are not perfectly smooth if you know what I mean?

I know what you mean, but it's close enough for me because someone is rarely going to rub from your ear upwards and that's the only way it doesn't feel smooth.

Good point bro. O0
joergHH:
Having shaved my head I turn the blades resp. insert the triple blades in the other way in my HB sport and shave my face.
Thereafter I do the round-the-ears-shave, cut the "earbrows" (like Marz said) and go over the temples from bottom to top against the grain. So the whole noggin is slick as a baby's butt.
