- How does the Series 8 compare with the Series 9?
- The Series 9 has five cutting elements and a more flexible head, and it often comes with a cleaning station. The Series 8 has four elements and the same style of motor, so it shaves nearly as close for less outlay, but it is less thorough on the neck.
- Is it good for sensitive skin?
- The foil head and wet-or-dry design suit many sensitive-skin shavers, especially with gel. Go slowly and avoid pressing hard; some users still get redness on the first few shaves.
- Can I use it in the shower?
- Yes. It is waterproof and rated for wet use, so you can shave in the shower with foam or gel. Rinse the head under warm water afterward and let it dry.
- How often do I need to replace the head?
- Braun recommends a new cutter head about every 18 months, or sooner if the shave starts pulling. The shaver signals when the head is worn.
- What is in the box?
- The shaver, a charging stand, a power cord and a protective cap. A travel case and cleaning station are not included in this version.
- Does it work with shaving cream?
- Yes. It is a wet-or-dry shaver, so it works with foam, gel or soap as well as dry. Rinse the head thoroughly after using cream.
