To trim with the precision trimming comb:
- Attach the comb to the blade, applying gentle pressure until it clicks into place.
- Turn the hair length setting wheel to select your desired hair length. Settings relate to a number of millimeters, ranging from 0.4mm (1/32 inch) to either 9mm (11/32 inch) or 10mm (13/32 inch), depending on the model of OneBlade Pro you are using.
- Switch your OneBlade Pro on and place against your face, ensuring that the front of the comb is firmly against the skin. Begin trimming your facial hair by moving the blade in long strokes against the direction of hair growth. Note that not all hairs grow in the same direction, so you may need to try moving the OneBlade Pro in multiple directions for best results.
- Once you are done, switch your OneBlade Pro off. You can now remove the comb by first pulling its back part off the body and then sliding it off the blade.
