ok upon completeion of my 7th shave!! i decided im going to list whats happened during this week. on the first day i had a fair amount of razor burn but only 1 or 2 cuts day 2 i had zero cuts and minimal razor burn but was left with fuzzy patches. for the rest of the week iv only really got minimal burn behind the ears from constantly trying to get it right. but today i dont know what went wrong might be my new razor or my attempts to get the little fuzzy its but i completely butchered my head got about 5 nicks and 1 pretty nice chunk missing from behind my ear :/ im sure it will all come with time and i just hope these cuts dont prevent me shaving :)

You didn't post what razor you use or if you use shave soap, cream or gel. I like Gillette Fusion & Schick Hydro 5. I've never cut myself with them. I also prefer a shave gel. After shaving with the grain you might try buffing when you shave against the grain. You go back & forth with your razor without lifting it from your scalp.

sorry i used the fusion until day 6 then swapped to a mach3 with fusion shave gel

Be sure to look at the Head Shaving Routines listed on the Head Shaving Forum. Lots of great info that will surely help you out. But like the guys are saying, you'll get the hang of it soon.
