CHOOSING THE RIGHT FOIL FOR YOUR FACE
One of the most exciting benefits of owning the Wahl Shaver is that you can customize it to your individual needs with a choice of three special
Until now, any shaver was a compromise because of differences in skin and individual preferences. But Wahl lets you choose just the right foil head for your face.
The Wahl Custom Shave System comes complete with all three interchangeable foil heads. And all Wahl DynaFlex Shaver owners can purchase these foils as accessories.
SENSITIVE FLEX FOIL
This foil is designed for people who don’t need to have their whiskers cut quite so close, people who experience irritation with other foils, and people who have a tendency toward ingrown hairs. The SENSI- TIVE Flex Foil is also great for those who are trying an electric shaver for the first time. It makes the
CLOSE Flex Foil
This foil has a standard hole configuration and thickness suitable for most beards, providing close, smooth, comfortable shaves.
SUPER CLOSE FLEX FOIL
An extremely thin foil with larger holes that allow the whiskers to be cut closer. It’s especially effective on tough beards. Since this foil will cut closer, it should be
You’ll probably find that all of these foil heads will give you a great shave. But you will undoubtedly develop your own preference and will want to purchase your favorite foil.
SHAVING PROCEDURES FOR FAST, CLOSE SHAVES We suggest that you thoroughly cleanse
and completely dry your skin prior to shaving. For maximum speed and efficiency, hold the shaver so that both screens are in contact with the skin. When shaving the upper lip or neck, hold shaver so that the uppermost screen is in contact with skin. Shave both with and against the grain of the beard, and stretch the skin taut in the path of the shaver. Guide the dual foil heads gently back and forth, primarily
against the grain of the beard. Do not press screen heads hard against face. Heavy scrubbing action with the shaver (as you might do with a rotary shaver) could damage the foil.
As a general rule, we recommend replacing the Flex Foil Head every four to six months for maximum results. The foil is
precise, raised inner cutting edges around the whisker holes. These raised cutting edges will wear with use, which will be indicated if your shaver slows down and the blades seem to get warm. Always replace the Foil Guard to protect the delicate dual foil heads when shaver is not in use. To ensure continued shaving satisfaction, you should replace the foils often and cutter bar periodically. We recommend foil replacement twice a year. Cutters should be replaced at least every two years.
SHAVING HEAVY BEARD GROWTH
Begin shaving in a less dense area of the beard. Move the shaver in a circular motion on a small area of the face (this picks up the hairs that grow in all directions). When you see that this small area is shaved clean, gradually move into a new area while still using the circular motion. Continue this

And, as mentioned earlier, it can be used to “knock down” heavy beard growth prior to shaving with the foil.
To use, remove Foil Guard and simply push the
Switch in an upward motion until trimmer slides (clicks) into position. Push On/Off Switch to “ON” position (marked “l” on shaver). Then begin trimming/styling.
