Hey guys. I have been shaving for a while now (using a Gillette Fuzion razor) and I have always gone with the grain which is down the neck (from chin towards chest). However, I find I don't get a particularly close shave. Recently I tried going up the neck (chest towards chin) which according to the Gillette adverts, is normal. However, I find that even with a slight bit of hair, it can become painful, leaving bad razor burn afterwards. However, it's a much smoother shave. I tend to shave after getting out of the shower and I use Nivia balm after which helps a lot, but which way should I be going and do you have any tips as to the best shave? Thanks, Alex 
). Anyway, what you're saying is do one pass with the grain, lather up again and then go against? I guess that makes sense, never thought of doing it that way. I read some guides and I tend to follow them, I just wondered whether most people go down the chin, or up (like they always do in the commericals).
