Your shaving stroke should be slow, fluid and gentle. Remember,
that's a sharp object you're scraping at your face with, so be a little
careful. Make sure your strokes are going down the bladed edge, not off
to the sides. Any sideways stroke across the blade will result in a cut.
For certain parts of your face, like around your jawline, you may need
to turn or angle the blade to ensure you are scraping down the bladed
edge, but in a horizontal stroke. Again, do not attempt a straight, sideways stroke across the blade.
