A few days growth (longer beard) shouldn't make the shave any harder or less comfortable, I wouldn't worry about it so much. If your beard grows very fast you could trim with trimmers first. Since you let your beard grow out some before you shave you have a great opportunity to map your beards growth pattern. By mapping the direction of growth you can adjust your approach to ensure you are going with the grain for your first pass, this usually helps reduce irritation and might even make the shave feel easier.Thanks Spider. Will give it a try. My only problem, and again I think it’s a problem, is that since I get irritations every shave I have to wait 2 to 3 days to let the face heal but that also makes me hace to shave with a 2 to 3 day facial hair and I also feel it becomes harder to shave while having longer hair. Unless you also have some tips for that?
Thanks

One last suggestion. Even though you arent shaving every day I recommend lathering on your face everyday. As long as your skin isn't so irritated you can rub it with the brush the daily face lather will help you learn to build better lathers and in my opinion it makes your skin healthier and more forgiving. I lather my face every evening, usually in the shower.
