Because it can get really close to the skin and it was actually designed for skin fades and beard lines, the Andis ProFoil can be an excellent head shaver. Upgrade your shaving routine with the Andis Replacement Foil Head ProFoil Lithium Titanium Shaver and effortlessly achieve a flawlessly groomed look. The ultra long-lasting lithium-ion battery doubles the run-time of its competitors, you can focus solely on your next smooth finish.

First of all, if you have very sensitive skin, you likely won’t be able to get the best out of it in terms of closeness. Whenever I failed to do so, it would instantly bite back, causing some nasty stinging, redness, and even a few nicks. Twin, gold titanium hypo-allergenic foils deliver irritation-free shaving for men prone to razor bumps. I confirm that I am a qualified beauty therapist/hair professional or a student undergoing training on a beauty/hair course.

The ultra-fine foil is made from hypoallergenic gold, enabling it to glide effortlessly over the skin for bump-free results. And speaking of it, this solution of offsetting the foils is surprisingly effective, allowing you to hold the shaver in a more natural way, with the two foils remaining in perfect contact with the skin (especially when shaving the neck). I would not recommend the Andis ProFoil to users dealing with razor bumps or ingrown hairs, I think there are much better alternatives, despite the fact that a gentler electric shaver won’t be able to get as close. Six months between replacements is about right I think, if you use it for your head 2 or 3 times a week. The ProFoil Lithium Titanium Foil Shaver has the model number TS-1 and you’ll also find it listed as 17150, which is the item number from Andis — just know that they all refer to the same product.

The staggered-head blades provide an exceptionally close shave that's ideal for stubble removal or for finishing fades. and was relatively inexpensive but the cleaning process seems to negate the time saved compared to the DE blade.Both use two staggered foil cutters, both are similar in terms of design and functionality, both work corded and cordless and the performance will also be quite similar. There’s no need to lubricate the blades according to the manufacturer, but I don’t think it would hurt. So the takeaway is that you should replace them when the performance of your ProFoil drops significantly and it’s not able to provide a decent level of comfort and closeness.

That’s quite a short period of time compared to other brands that claim between 12 and 18 months of use.In this review, I’ll share everything about my experience with the Andis ProFoil, hopefully helping you decide whether it’ll be a good option for you. As you can see, those aren’t very important differences, but I think overall they make the Andis ProFoil a better pick.
