Shaving tips and tricks
- Make sure that the blade is in full contact
with the skin by placing it flat on the skin
(Fig. 5).
- For the best result, move the product
against the grain (Fig. 6).
- Make long strokes while pressing lightly.
- You can use the product dry or wet with
gel or foam. You can even use the
product in the shower.
- Shaving a clean beard and face gives the
best results.
Edging
- Use both edges of the blade to create
sharp lines and perfect edges.
- Hold the product in such a way that the
blade is perpendicular to the skin and
one of its edges touches the skin. This
allows more precise detailing of
sideburns and the area around the
mouth and nose.
1 To create sharp edges and lines, you can
use either edge of the blade (Fig. 7).
2 Switch on the product.
3 Place the edge of the blade
perpendicular onto the skin (Fig. 8).
4 Make straight strokes while applying
gentle pressure (Fig. 9).
5 Switch off and clean the product after
