Good technique should come with time, you will likely adjust sub-conciously to get a comfortable, smooth and effective shaving angle and intuitively know what direction you facial hair grows and adjust accordingly. New Shavers often find more aggressive razors easy to get a close shave with, because such razors often cut through a wider range of angles. A milder razor will often have a narrower cutting angle (the Feather ASD2 being a fairly extreme example of such, it is akin to an on / off switch) and therefore requires good technique in maintaining the correct angle. Razors such as the R89 and 34C are both relatively mild and have a wide range of cutting angle and are therefore great for new and experienced shavers alike. You will often see advice asserting no pressure when shaving, the reality is each razors requires a different amount of pressure, albeit subtle and still a light touch, to get the best from them, this will also come with familiarity. The old adage one brush, one soap, one razor, one blade (e.g. not swapping and changing for period of time) will help in nailing technique.
