FAQs

How often should I replace the blade cartridge?

Gillette recommends replacing the ProGlide cartridge every month, or when the blades feel dull.

Can I use this razor with other Gillette cartridges?

This razor is designed to fit ProGlide cartridges. It is compatible with all Gillette 5-blade razor handles excluding GilletteLabs.

How do I clean the razor?

Rinse the razor thoroughly under running water after each stroke. Allow it to air dry after use. Do not tap the blades to remove hairs as this can damage the blades.

What is the FlexBall technology?

The FlexBall technology allows the razor head to pivot and respond to facial contours for a close shave.

What is the Lubrastrip?

The Lubrastrip is a thin strip of pre-lubricated material that softens the skin for slick glide and extra comfort while shaving.

How do I use the precision trimmer?

Use the precision trimmer on the back of the razor for styling facial hair and reaching tricky areas. Use short, controlled strokes.

What should I do if the razor feels uncomfortable?

Ensure you're using a shaving gel or foam. Check to see if your blade is dull and replace it if needed.

Troubleshooting

Razor feels like it's dragging or pulling.

Replace the blade cartridge with a new one. Dull blades are a common cause of pulling.

Difficulty shaving around the chin or jawline.

Use the FlexBall technology to pivot the razor and maintain contact with the skin. Ensure you are applying a shaving gel or foam to provide adequate lubrication.

Irritation or redness after shaving.

Use a fresh blade and ensure you're using a quality shaving gel or foam. Shave in the direction of hair growth and avoid excessive pressure.

The precision trimmer is not working effectively.

Make sure the trimmer is clean and free of debris. Use the trimmer with short, controlled strokes.
