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.
We advise you to shave regularly (at least 3 times
a week) for a period of 3 weeks to allow your skin
to adapt to the new shaver. During this period, use
your new electric shaver exclusively and do not use
other shaving methods. If you use different shaving
methods, it is more difcult for your skin to adapt to
the new shaving system.
