Trimming Facial Hair (e.g., upper lip, cheeks)

• Ensure your skin is clean and dry.
• Hold the skin taut with one hand.
• Gently glide the trimmer flat against the skin, moving it in small, controlled strokes against the direction of hair growth. The rounded blade design is intended to be gentle on the skin.

Eyebrow Trimming

Use the included eyebrow cover and comb for precise eyebrow shaping and length adjustment.

1. For Shaping (using Eyebrow Cover):
   • Attach the eyebrow cover by aligning it with the blade slit and sliding it on. This cover helps protect eyelashes when shaping around the brow area.
   • Gently trim unwanted hairs around the desired eyebrow shape.
2. For Length Adjustment (using Eyebrow Comb):
   • Attach the eyebrow comb by aligning it with the blade slit and sliding it on.
   • Adjust the comb to your desired length setting (2mm, 4mm, or 6mm) by sliding the comb up or down.
   • Comb through your eyebrows and gently trim the hairs to an even length.
