You can use your shaver for either. For a dry shave, start with clean, completely dry skin. For a wet shave, wet your face and apply shaving foam or gel. Choose the method that feels most comfortable for your skin and routine.

 

Can I handle the shaver with wet hands?

Yes. The shaver is suitable for wet use and can be handled with wet hands. Keep a secure grip while shaving, especially if your hands or the handle is covered in foam or gel. Use the shaver cordless when shaving with water, foam or gel.

 

How much pressure should I apply?

Keep the shaving heads in full contact with your skin and guide them slowly in small circular movements. Apply steady pressure, enough to maintain contact, but don’t press the heads into your skin. Let the shaver do the work. Pressing too hard or repeatedly shaving the same area can increase friction and cause irritation.

 

What results should I expect?

Your first shaves may not feel as close or comfortable as you expect. Your skin and beard may need around two to three weeks to adjust, especially if you’re switching from a manual razor or another shaving system. Shaving regularly with slow, circular movements can help you get used to the technique. Results can also vary depending on beard length, hair growth direction and skin sensitivity.
