I will try some of your ideas. I probably don't soak my head enough. I shave at the sink and wash my head/face in water as hot as I can take, then I lather my head, then my face. Then I shave my face. Touch up the lather on my head and shave it. I will try to shave in the shower. I am getting better at learning my head, so I can almost shave by feel. I will try your ideas and let you know if I still have issues.
Thanks
