Serious question, dealing with thick neck hair that grows in multiple directions

I used to get tugging and uneven cuts on thick neck hair. Now I go against the grain in small sections, and it's much smoother! What do you all do?

Have you tried a really solid pre shave routine to soften things up first? I found washing my neck with hot water and using a good gel or oil makes a HUGE difference before I even touch the razor. That prep work lets your against the grain method work even better because the hair is way more manageable. Using a fresh, sharp blade is non-negotiable too, it just glides through. It totally turns the whole shave around and cuts down on the irritation and bumps.

Cold water works better (no kidding) for sensitive skin.
