Pre-trim your long facial hair
Shaving long hair can be uncomfortable and may lead to skin irritation.
If you have not shaved for a couple of days and have a heavy beard, it is a good idea to trim
your beard before you start shaving. This technique also helps in reducing shaving time.
Some Philips Shavers come with a trimming attachment that you can use to trim your beard.
Otherwise, use your normal beard trimmer.
Be gentle and apply the right amount of pressure
While shaving, it is important to be gentle, especially if you have sensitive skin that is prone to
irritation. Do not press the shaver too hard against your skin. Only apply gentle pressure that
makes your facial hair stand upright and makes it easier for the shaver blades to catch and cut
them.
Gentle pressure also reduces friction between the shaver and your skin, resulting in a more
comfortable experience. The latest models of S9000 will help you to apply the right amount of
pressure thanks to its pressure-guard feature.
My Philips Shaver is making a loud noise
If your shaver is making a strange or loud noise, it is probably because it is not assembled
correctly. This can cause a rattling noise and we advise that you reassemble your shaver. For
full instructions on how to do it, refer to your user manual.
