Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the benefit of electric shaving?
-
With electric shaving you don’t have to compromise: You get both closeness and skin comfort. Also, electric shavers are convenient to use: many shavers can be used wet and dry and also under the shower.
- What is the benefit of rotary shaving?
Rotary shaving heads are known for their flexibility. As a result, you get a smooth shave even in difficult-to-reach areas. You can complete your shave with fewer passes and less pressure. The result is a close shave with great skin comfort.
- How do I get the best shave?
Skin adaptation period
Your first shaves may not bring you the result you expect and your skin may even become slightly irritated. This is normal. Your skin and beard need time to adapt to any new shaving system. To allow your skin to adapt to this new appliance, we advise you to shave regularly (at least 3 times a week) and exclusively with this shaver for a period of 3 weeks.
Shaving tips
- For optimal skin comfort, pre-trim your beard if you have not shaved for 3 days or longer.
- Select your personal comfort setting
