Best way to avoid razor burn on my neck?

Having serious issues with shaving my neck and crazy razor burn. I used one of the best razors and a really good shave gel. Plus only shave normally right after a shower when my skin is soft. I use a really good after shave lotion but it seems not to be enough.

    You may be shaving with too sharp of blades. How vigorously are you shaving? If a lighter touch will do, you'd do well to go easy on it.

    (To answer the obvious question, if you don't want razor burn, don't shave. LOL!)

    You need to make sure that your after shave lotion doesn't contain alcohol, this will only dry your skin and create more damage.

    Are you using the proper shaving technique?

    I know this may sound weird but I saw this on RACHAEL RAY and thought it sounded like really good advice. I usually can't stand her but sometimes she has neat things on her show:

    I sent the story to my boyfriend after seeing it on the show.

    I suggest a lighter touch too, but you also need to make sure that your razor is not too old and is VERY clean from the previous shave.

    You gotsta trim it with a beard trimmer/hair buzzer first, just the buzzer part, no extensions. Do you do that? Helped me out a lot.
