Hi, Edwin Jagger razors are generally very mild to use. I rarely do more than two passes. It may be tempting to press, or to have to 'feel' something as you shave - i.e. have some kind of feedback when shaving. With my razor, EJ Chatsworth Barley, I don't get a lot of feed back, and the shave is very mild, and I'd rather not have an aggressive razor because I don't want to risk getting a rash or soreness.
I have only been DE shaving for 1 month, and am still experimenting with different blades. It won't be long before my Ingrams shaving cream reaches its Morden stage - the end of the tube, which I've had for nearly 6 weeks (previously used the Azor, and BIC disposables with this cream). Then onto Men U cream. So, take your time, don't try too hard. After all, it's only shaving.
With regards abbreviations, I also have:
XTGL - Across the grain to the left
XTGR - Across the grain to the right.
I even thought of this one for head shavers:
XTB - Across the brain!
