Using the Foil Shaver
The VGR V-353 features a high-strength ultra-thin metal net slice combined with an ultra-thin reciprocating floating blade for a close and comfortable shave. It supports both wet and dry shaving.
- Dry Shave: Ensure your face is clean and dry. Hold the shaver at a right angle to your skin and move it against the direction of hair growth.
- Wet Shave: Apply shaving foam or gel to your face. Shave as you would with a dry shave, then rinse your face and the shaver head thoroughly.

Maintenance
Cleaning the Shaver
