Philips Norelco HQ167 Cool Skin Replacement Heads for 6700 Series

Caution:Norelco tells you to replace the heads every 12 months, however, that can be excessive in some situations. If you use your Advantage shaver in a dry mode (without lubricant), then replacing the heads yearly is about accurate. However, what Norelco doesn't tell you (and the reason why most people buy an Advantage) is that if you use this shaver when your face is warm, wet, and with a lubricant (i.e. shaving in the shower) then you can easily go 2 years without replacing the cutters.The reason for this is because dry shaving with an electric razor is extremely hard on any blade (not just these ones). By warming and wetting your face and whiskers with water and a lubricant (there are many to choose from), you can decrease blade wear by about 60%! It's also more gentle on your face and can prevent/decrease razor burn.Skin Care Tip:If you're concerned about healthy skin, skin cancer, and/or want to keep your skin looking young as you get older, it's best to apply an after shave lotion on your entire face with SPF shortly after the shave, while your pores are still open. You also need to apply it every day, not just on days that you shave. Pay the extra and get an after shave lotion with SPF and NOT a big bottle of generic sun block; you just might end up smelling like coconuts. The lotion can be a little pricey when you see the size of the bottle you get for your money, but just remember what your buying it for. And lastly, and this is VERY important, make sure that it blocks both UVA and UVB; not all of them do.

The blades arrived with the top taped shut; however, the metal rivets holding the packaging together were not disturded. Upon opening the package, I found the individual blade packages to already be open as well. I am assuming I paid top dollar for a returned item. The blades work well and are "new" i.e. Never used (3stars instead of 1), but I still feel slightly swindled.

I got this for my husband. He has the toughest whiskers. These give him the best shave ever. I got him 2 sets. As long as these are available he will never use another razor. Has been using this electric razor for about 8 years. I will sure buy again and highly recommend any one looking for a new close shave razor. Well worth every dollar.

Goodbye phillip, I'm leaving you. At first, it was good. I got several months of good loving. But now, even after just a month the quality is just not there. 6 weeks in it is simply unbearable. How could you let yourself fall apart like that? It's like you don't even care anymore. I can't take this kind of abuse any more, and after decades of loyalty this just hurts more.You need to know that there is someone else. He's japanese and knows how to treat me right. He'a smooth and long lasting. It started so innocently. He was just sitting on the counter. One encounter couldn't do any harm, could it? Once I realised what some smooth treatment was like, there was no turning back. The second day felt so much better too.Get help, Phillip. You need serious professional help. Only a sociopath treats those so loyal so badly. You have betrayed us all and deserve the love of no one.

I have had my 6701x Norelco shaver for 4 years with the original heads due to my inability to find them at the local stores and the distraction of other goodies when shopping online. I finally remembered to order them and it feels like I have a whole new razor. The difference - both dry and in shower - is that there is alot less irritation on my face because the hair is being cut rather than pulled on the pitted blades. I gave up using the shaver for a bit because of the pulling feeling, but now I look forward to shaving with eh Norelco again.It's becoming difficult to find this online, but if you have the Norelco shaver and it's in good working order, get it, your skin will thank you for it.

Good

Not as sharp as a new razor then just as worn out as old one after just 6 months

Amazon has the best price on these heads for my old 5715X Norelco. I use the razor dry and replace the heads once a year. It's next to impossible to find them in stores where I live. Kinney drugs is the only one that sells them and they are $39.99. Recommend getting them here to anyone.

very good product,only problem ,the post and packageing cost more than the goods.I feel that this item should be sent free of charge.

As discribed good quality very sharp
