Tips for best shaving results
Start out shaving by applying gentle pressure to your face.
Stretch your skin with your free hand and move the shaver back
and forth in the direction of your beard. You may gently increase
the amount of pressure as your skin becomes accustomed to
this shaver. Applying excessive pressure does not provide a
closer shave.
