Product FAQS
------------
What makes Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power better than Gillette
Fusion Power?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
What makes Fusion ProGlide better than Gillette Fusion is
technological innovation. The razor has been reengineered and
redesigned to create Gillette's Most Comfortable Shave.
Gillette Fusion ProGlide shares the same core technology as
Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power: thinner, finer shaving blades, a
low resistance coating and the redesigned Precision Trimmer
Blade. In addition to this:
* The blade stabilizer helps maintain precise blade spacing for
optimal comfort.
* The redesigned handle has larger, more ergonomic grips for
better control.
* The enhanced Lubrastrip is larger, with more lubricants and a
touch of mineral oil.
* The redesigned precision trimmer features an improved razor
blade and anti-clogging rinse slots.
* The streamlined comfort guard offers channels to help clear
away excess shave prep.
Together, these technologies combine to create Gillette's Most
Comfortable Shave.
How does the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power handle compare with
the Gillette Fusion Power handle?The Fusion ProGlide Power now
has ergonomic side grips for better handling.
What is the microchip and how does it work?
-------------------------------------------
A battery-powered razor delivers an optimal shave when the
voltage and frequency remain consistent shave after shave. Over
the lifetime of the battery, the voltage can weaken, reducing
frequency and therefore performance. The microchip maintains
constant voltage and frequency over the lifetime of the battery,
delivering consistent product performance every time you shave.
How does the Low-Battery Indicator Light work?
----------------------------------------------
When a battery reaches a certain level, the oscillation frequency
declines and the system is no longer capable of delivering the
optimal shave. The microchip inside Gillette Fusion ProGlide
Power senses when the battery is approaching this level. When
this happens, the Low-Battery Indicator Light begins to flash,
signaling that it's time to change the AAA battery.
What is the Automatic Shut-Off feature?
---------------------------------------
The Automatic Shut-Off feature turns the razor off after roughly
8 minutes of continuous operation. This feature protects the
battery if the razor is accidentally activated, especially when
traveling.
How does movement of the razor give men a better shave?
-------------------------------------------------------
With battery-powered razors, Gillette opened a new chapter in wet
shaving. The addition of oscillation to Gillette wet shaving
systems delivers soothing micropulses with comfort so incredible;
you'll barely feel the blades. Fusion ProGlide Power is
Gillette's most comfortable shave.
For best results, should the power be turned on or off when using
the Precision Trimmer Blade?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Precision Trimmer Blade can be used with the power turned on
or off. Preference varies from person to person. Using the
Precision Trimmer Blade with or without power is an individual
choice.
What type of battery does Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power use? How
long does it last?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power utilizes a AAA battery. With the
Low-Battery Indicator Light, Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power will
let you know when it's time to change the battery. Assuming
average shaving, the battery should last approximately 3\u20136
months.
What is the difference between a single, double, triple and
5-blade razor? Which is best?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Gillette's research has demonstrated that single blade
technology, which has been applied since 1901, is demonstrably
inferior to twin blade shaving systems such as Sensor Excel, and
even more so to 5-blade systems such as Gillette Fusion ProGlide.
But the number of blades alone does not ensure a superior shave.
The 5-blade shaving surface of Fusion ProGlide Manual and Fusion
ProGlide Power features progressive blade alignment, an advanced
blade coating process and a flexible comfort guard which
collectively provide Gillette's best shave.
How do I avoid nicks and cuts, particularly above my upper lip?
---------------------------------------------------------------
The area above the upper lip is tricky for many men. To help
avoid nicks and cuts, always leave it for last. Apply plenty of
shave gel and allow this area to soak up as much lather as
possible. When shaving, don't apply too much pressure. Gillette
Fusion ProGlide's Precision Trimmer is really useful when shaving
under the nose.
Is it safe to shave with Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power in the
shower?Yes. Gillette Fusion Power is watertight and totally safe
to use in wet environments.
Can I get electrocuted if Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power is
submerged in water?No. Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power is safe to
use in water.
How long will the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power cartridge last?
----------------------------------------------------------------
How long a razor cartridge lasts varies from person to person, as
it is dependent on many variables such as beard toughness and
thickness, beard preparation, shaving habits, and skin
sensitivity. The Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power's reformulated
INDICATOR lubricating strip will provide you with a visual cue
\u2014 it fades to white \u2014 when optimal shave conditions
have been reduced. When this happens, you may want to change your
cartridge for a more comfortable shave.
What are thinner, finer blades and how will they improve my
shave?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power razor has 5 blades spaced closer
together, forming an advanced shaving surface. The razor blades
are thinner than those of Fusion\u2013enabling the blades to cut
effortlessly through the hair with less tug and pull.
How was the Precision Trimmer redesigned?The blade was improved
and anti-clogging rinse slots were added.
What is the Streamlined Comfort Guard with channels? What are the
benefits of the Streamlined Comfort Guard?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power features a Streamlined Comfort
Guard. The soft, flexible material surrounds the microfins,
creating an outer edge that wraps around the sides of the
cartridge and channels that clear away excess shave prep. This
Streamlined Comfort Guard follows the contours of your face to
help the shaving surface of the razor comfortably shave close.
Have there been any enhancements to the lubrication strip?Yes. It
now contains more lubricants and a touch of mineral oil.
Will the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power cartridge fit any other
razors on the market?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power cartridge features a razor
blade that fits on any Gillette Fusion, Fusion ProGlide or Fusion
ProGlide Power handle.
Shaving FAQS
------------
Is it better to use hot, cold, or warm water to shave?Warm water
is best for hydrating beard hair. Soaking in warm water softens
hair and causes it to expand, making it 70 percent easier to cut.
What is the best way to avoid razor burn?
-----------------------------------------
If the skin is not properly prepared before shaving or if the
blade on your razor is dull, you are more likely to end up with
razor burn. Make sure to hydrate hair in warm water for up to
three minutes and apply plenty of shave gel. Also, be sure to
change the blade on your razor at the first sign of dullness or
discomfort.
Is it okay to let my girlfriend or wife borrow my men\u2019s
razor?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
For both hygiene and performance, it's not a good idea to share
your razor with your partner. Women have a much larger area to
shave and you may find that after only a few shaves, your blade
has dulled considerably; increasing the likelihood of nicks and
cuts. Tell her to try a razor specifically designed for the way a
woman shaves, such as Gillette Venus Embrace

Does shaving make your hair grow back thicker?
----------------------------------------------
Scientists at Gillette have conducted extensive testing on the
effects shaving has on both male and female hair growth, texture
and color. This testing has proven that shaving does not affect
hair growth, color or texture. Shaving does, however, alter the
tip shape of the regrown hair, which may initially change the way
hair feels as it grows back. But if hair is left to re-grow
completely, it will return to its former state.
In what direction should I shave to achieve the best shave?Men's
facial hair tends to grow in different directions. Start by
shaving with light, gentle strokes with the grain. Then, if
necessary, go against the grain for an even closer shave.
What is the difference between disposable and refillable razors?
----------------------------------------------------------------
The entire razor is dided when you are through with a
disposable razor. With a refillable razor, only the blade
cartridge is replaced. Refillable razors like Gillette Fusion
ProGlide and Gillette Fusion incorporate more advanced blade
technology and ergonomics vs. most disposables for great control
and a close comfortable shave.
