How do you shave? (piefed.blahaj.zone)

Hi, I wanted a bit of advice as I'm not sure how to do it properly.
When I shave, I either go both ways which causes me to cut myself a lot more, or I go from top to bottom but when doing this, my skin feels lot coarser. Is there a technique I should be using?

I got an electric foil shaver, it's fairly high quality and it works on my face. My body hair follicles seem to hate being shaved always break out and b itchy afterwards, no matter whether I use a razor or Nair or scissors or my shaver.
