Here's how they work:
* Cutting the hairs: The foil is a thin, perforated metal sheet with tiny holes through which the shaver's blades are positioned. When the shaver is turned on, the blades move quickly, cutting the hairs that protrude through the holes in the foil.
* Protecting the skin: The foil acts as a protective barrier between the blades and the skin, preventing irritation and cuts.
* Close shave: The foil helps to achieve a close shave by ensuring that the blades cut the hairs close to the skin.
Types of Braun shaver foils:
* Standard foils: Suitable for general use.
* Sensitive foils: Designed for sensitive skin.
* Precision foils: For trimming and detailing.
When to replace Braun shaver foils:
It's important to replace the foil when it becomes dull or worn out, which can occur after a few months of use. Signs that your foil needs replacing include:
* Reduced shaving performance: It takes longer to shave or you need to go over areas multiple times.
* Increased irritation: You experience more razor burn or ingrown hairs.
* Noticeable wear and tear: The foil has visible scratches or dents.
By using and maintaining the foil correctly, you can enjoy a close, comfortable shave with your Braun shaver.
