When do I need to replace my lady shaver foil?

For optimal cutting and gliding performance, we advise you to replace the foil every 12 months or when it no longer provides the shaving or trimming results you expect. Always replace the foil with an original Philips foil.

Depending on your usage behavior, the exact lifetime of your foil may vary. Similar to a manual blade, the foil becomes blunt over time, and this may result in reduced shaving performance and an increased hair pulling sensation during shaving and trimming. You may wish to replace your foil sooner or later than indicated, depending on how satisfied you are with the performance of the foil.
