Notes: 4th try at shaving with my shovelhead, finally finished a shave with it .Bad irritation even after trying to change my technique with angle and lightest pressure. I will re try at a later date .
I used to have trouble with that one, too. Like most all Gem and Every-ready razors, put the head flat on your face. That will tame your shave. The angle is built into the razor. If you feel tempted to increase the angle then only do it very slightly. The more the angle --- the angrier the shave.
