The Philips Precision Trimmer is your key to shaping and designing. Some models come with additional attachments that help you shape and style, like a trimming comb and shaving foil. All Philips products consisting of a shaving foil are skin friendly. Philips is not a dermatological authority and cannot give skin, hair or nail advice on individual cases.
Before using a Philips product with a shaving foil, it is good practice to visually check the grooming device to ensure that the shaving foil is still intact. Replace the foil immediately when it is damaged, via our webshop or your local Consumer Care.
Some products come with additional attachments to use on sensitive areas, like your pubic region. You can find more information about using these attachments in your user manual, or you can contact us.
If you are still unsure about how to use Philips devices with a shaving foil, please consult your physician or healthcare professional, who can examine whether your skin is suitable for this type of grooming device.

Wet or dry use
Some of our Bikini Trimmers can be used both wet and dry. If you want to trim wet, make sure that your Bikini Trimmer is suitable for that. Check if a shower or bathtub symbol is printed on the back of your device. It so, it is safe to be used with water.
When using wet, make sure that your skin is completely wet with water.
Be mindful that trimming wet hair is a bit tricky, as wet hair tends to stick to your skin and is difficult to remove. We recommend trying out both wet and dry trimming and seeing what works best for you.
For washable products, clean the trimming head with running water from time to time during use. Also clean the appliance with running water after use and let all parts dry before you store them.
For non-washable trimmers, you can blow off the hair on the trimmer or use the cleaning brush supplied to clean the device.
