Gillette Proglide Value Pack: Handle + 9 Razor Blades

What's the best way to travel with a ProGlide razor?

Most men will want to take their ProGlide razor with them when they travel to enjoy a close, comfortable shave wherever they are. You're allowed to take razors in your hand luggage on most flights, so you can tuck it away in your usual travel bag. Alternatively, for added protection and convenience, Gillette's ProGlide Travel Case is specifically designed for durability in transit. While you're away, remember to pack a Gillette's PRO Sensitive prep in your hold luggage since these products are designed to work better together for an even closer shave versus no shave gel.

How do you clean a ProGlide razor?

It's important to clean your ProGlide PROBLADESTM regularly to maintain their high performance. To do so, simply rinse the razor's head after every few strokes, then more thoroughly after you've finished your shave. Don't tap the razor against the sink or any hard surface to remove debris, as this can damage the precision dimensions of the cartridge and the triple blade stabiliser system that holds them. Just rinse the razor for longer, running the water from back to front to shift stubborn hairs. Once you're done, allow your PROBLADESTM to dry out in the open air, preferably in a vertical position. For convenient storage, try out Gillette's razor stand or mini hanger.

Microcomb technology to gently guide hairs

The ProGlide cartridge's guard bar is finished with a microcomb located just behind the soft microfins. Featuring multiple microslots, the microcomb is designed to gently guide hairs towards the blades during shaving, while the microfins gently stretch your skin in front of the blades to help prepare the surface for shaving. It can also help to tackle curly hairs and tough stubble.

A precision trimmer to reach difficult areas

Behind the main blades, on the other side of the ProGlide cartridge, you'll find a single precision blade, which is useful for shaving hard-to-reach areas, such as underneath the nose or the corners of the mouth. It's also a great styling tool that can help define your beard's lines, style your moustache or trim your sideburns with ease.

Revolutionary FlexBall handle that adjusts to contours

The ProGlide razor's FlexBall handle makes shaving easier by adjusting to the contours of your face, including your chin, cheekbones and jawline, allowing you to capture virtually every hair. The ergonomic handle ensures a secure grip for great control, easily rolling through the fingers when changing from the front of the cartridge to the back.

Ingenious low cutting force blades

Shaving with your ProGlide razor will be comfortable and low resistance thanks to a unique anti-friction coating and Gillette's sharpest edges (*blades 1 to 4). Each of these low cutting force blades rests on a flexible, individual spring-mount that intuitively adjusts to irregular surfaces and the contours of the face, allowing you to achieve great accuracy and comfort during shaving.
