Wash face and dry, then apply some pure corn starch baby powder to face. it will dry and lubricate the face making the shaver glide smoothly with no harm to the cutters. Do not use much pressure as that drags on the skin and can irritate. If you have dry skin apply some skin lotion afterwards.
I've been using the Philips Norelco SensoTouch 3D 1255x for many years. I had to go electric because cartridge razors were killing me. Every shave yielded razor burn. I use my philips dry, but I use the Remington Face Saver Pre Shave Powder Stick | SP-5B. It works great, allows the shaver to glide smoothly over the face. I almost always shave after showering, no burns. I'm thinking to upgrade to 9000 Prestige. I just need to verify the RQ111 trimmer works on the 9000. I need that to trim my beard.
Thanks for your comment. You're applying some good shaving practices! But every persons skin and hair is unique - we're glad you found your routine. Good luck with the purchase, and do consider using the links in the video description ;)
You guys always make me laugh and need to do stand comedy in technology . You must be techies on your day job. That was 3 weeks of growth a clean look looks better on you. 👍😊
That was funny. Good, but funny...More channels should have a follow up on things that don't or may not go well when using a particular product. Good explanations and advice too...;-)
I used Braun Series 9 for 2 years it was great with occasional slight razor burns , then I heard that philips putting out new shaver so i bought it , the s9000 prestige has great look and built quality shaves very close but i ve been using it for 2 weeks now and the experience is HELL i get sever skin irritations i tried wet shave things got little better but eventually i had to see a dermatologist because of the pain associated with this shaver.dont get it if you have sensitive skin.
Did you try following some of the tips in this video? I had the same experience first, but after changing shaving speed and starting with neck first (and wet shaving) my experience improved drastically.
@@DHRME I ordered one of these after watching your review which seemed very positive. Here you say the trimmer is crap and you both suffered irritation (from the shaver, not just from each other). It would have been handy to have this information in the review!
Yeah....I tried the 7000 series and I turned away from Philishave....I looked like you in the photos..my usual beloved Braun series 7 replacement carts suck...AND THEN!...I found the old Gillette Sensor...why didn't i buy this when they had it on the shelf still...because I was too young perhaps..
I havelm a really thick beard an it's kinda tough to shave using this Shaver, though it does it's job, I recommend shaving you beard more often if you have a coarse one.
After I shave either with my Philishave or with my safety rasor I find that a lot of my facial heir lays low and does not get cut. I wet my face with water and a bit of shaving cream and rub my skin against the grain, then use my razor again. That tends to get more of the hair that would not get picked up before. There does not seem to be a perfect razor to accomplish this though the ads say there is.
I tend to have that a lot around the neck area. Everyone's skin type and hair growth direction can be different. Have you tried a pre-shave treatment? That may help.
i used the philips aquatouch shaver AT890 trimmer pop up one for shaving and it never gave me irritation but the philips series7000 trimmer was irritating
I shave everyday with the Phillips series 9000 prestige started 5 days ago and I have the irritation and bumps my kinda work I have to shave everyday pls do I continue shaving or use another clipper?
so i dont have the prestiege, just the s9000, but the tips are good, nevertheless.....Nice, fun way to learn how to shave! And how about alum as an astringent instead of a balm?
Thanks! Alum is great to stop bleeding from shaving cuts, but you still want to disinfect, calm and hydrate the skin after a shave, and for that a balm is better.
LMAO!! only 1:32in and I'm nearly in tears laughing!!!!great video!!!!! 5⭐... YES I AGREE, you'd be great in stand up Comedy....like what am I watching here? A review or a comedy 😳😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄👍 And sub'd at 1:32 ....RARE for me on ANY VIDEO
yah, dude(s) … your cc _(closed-caption)_ messing up a bit … the guy with the beard enunciated *"balm"* correctly _(__7:11__)_ … cc interpreted as *"bomb"* … whereas, the 'clean' shaven dude on the left exacerbated the cc-annoyance by enunciating *"bomb"* . relax, i get the part about the humor. same cc-annoyance with *"after-shade"* instead of *"after-shave"* _(__6:51__)_ . you really should consider editing captions/ subtitles before posting videos … they're simple text-files. as for the _'content'_ of the video … s'just okay. philips/norelco states confusing protocol/method _(ingrown hairs)_ when compared to your video. so, idk really. thanks for the effort, guys.
Why spend the money on this razor when there is no smartclean system? especially with limited time and sensitive skin? oils and buildup on the heads can really destroy your face.
Wayne Douglas sure I don’t know how to move it in circles around my face, my daddy never taught me how to shave.... go and spend 500 usd on this piece of shit then
Hi i love your videos and always have had Philips but i hate that PHILIPS do not have text in the manual, just pictures and that do not say anything you can do with the shaver and it is diffucult to understand the pictures so it is total garbage. I got the SP 9862/14 but never PHILIPS again if they do not change the manual to text and explain everything you can do with the shaver !!!
Buy the Philips series 9000 Prestige (+wireless charger): geni.us/S9000PrestigeWC
Buy the Philips series 9000 Prestige: geni.us/S9000Prestige

Y'all are hilarious. Thanks for the entertainment in the tips, lol.
I have stumbled across you guys and have to say I really like the humour. Do more!
On the series 9000 prestige, no one seems to talk about the beard styler. Can you do a small video review on that!? Is it any good?

I find that interesting. I found the Prestige to be easier on my skin than the arc 5 AND the Braun series 9 pro?
You guys are amazing. Thank you!

Already a subscriber - ever since you'll reviewed the Sony xm2 which I subsequently bought!
You can just shower after shaving whitch feels a lot (!) cleaner than before shaving. I even shower after wet shaving also.
Funny review and great tips!
Y'all crack me up ! Thumbs up
You guys are funny. Thanks for the video.👍
does electric shavers like philips aquatouch series 7000 darken skin (hyperpigmentation)???
I just bought it. Should I drain the battery to 0% before recharging it or is it useless with today's batteries?
Lol this was funny and informative thanks guys.

The prestige
Have been using S 9000 prestige for the last 3 months. A great experience.
Philips one blade ,also electric saver,do the job in just 1min.better and cost 40 euro and you dont have to keep rotate and rotate and rotate

Some handy tips in the video. And funny with it. Good one guys.

Why bother shaving?
Fair question.
Even in wet shave ,irritation going on?
It's much better with a wet shave!
Biggest mistake was definitely waking up
This shaver sucked and it was really hard to return
Wayne Douglas sure I don’t know how to move it in circles around my face, my daddy never taught me how to shave....
go and spend 500 usd on this piece of shit then
Yes! The return process is awful! I’m trying to get mine returned because it’s got my neck looking like Freddy Krueger.

You can download a better manual from their website but I agree it should be included, especially at this premium price.

I hear these 2 want to learn how to fly a plane but not how to land it.
