Another damn serviceable shave from the $headless and $MammothMafia24 setup. If I can get the neck area sorted out, I could easily see myself using something like this as a one-pass option any day of the week to spice things up. This challenge, however, requires two passes, and while an ATG pass leaves my cheeks smooth as butter, it's a bit too much hassle to keep switching up my grip while also stretching the skin taut, and the possibility of ending up like the (Heath Ledger) Joker should I slip up is enough to keep me second-guessing my every move.
I'll be honest, there was a tiny spot of blood on my neck today, right near the Adam's apple. I didn't even notice it at first until I touched it; it was so little blood it hardly warrants including, but the counter is there for a reason. Goes to show the neck is still a dicey area for me. Alum told me as much today, too.
