Don't feel like your face is crazy.
I have several spots below the jawline that have hair growing in several directions. So that last across the grain pass requires that I lather up the same place a couple of times.

If you have razor burn in only one place (on one cheek, for example), you're almost certainly using more pressure there, and/or a bad blade angle. Shave that area with very short strokes, paying careful attention to pressure, and also to blade angle. All this assumes that your prep is good and you ...
