FAQs

How often should I replace the blade?

Gillette recommends replacing the blade refill when you notice pulling or discomfort, or after approximately 20 shaves.

Can I use this razor for sensitive skin?

While the razor itself doesn't have specific features for sensitive skin, using a sensitive skin shaving cream is recommended to minimize irritation.

How do I use the precision trimmer?

Use the precision trimmer on the back of the razor to trim sideburns, shape facial hair, and reach difficult areas.

How do I clean the razor?

Rinse the razor blades thoroughly under running water after each shave. Avoid tapping the blades on the sink or wiping them with a towel, as this can damage them.

Where can I buy replacement blades?

Replacement blades are widely available at most drugstores, supermarkets, and online retailers.

What is the benefit of the microfins?

The soft microfins gently stretch and smooth the skin before the blades pass over, helping to prepare hairs for a close shave.

Is this razor good for beginners?

Yes, the Gillette Fusion5 is relatively easy to use, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced shavers. Just ensure you are using good technique and quality shaving cream.
