Shaving
Skin adaptation period
Your rst shaves may not bring you the result you expect and your
skin may even become slightly irritated. This is normal. Your skin and
beard need time to adapt to any new shaving system. To allow your
skin to adapt to this new appliance, we advise you to shave regularly
(at least 3 times a week) and exclusively with this appliance for a
period of 3 weeks.
