How to Use the FlexSeries Pro Nose & Ear Trimmer Safely

Quick Answer

To use the FlexSeries Pro Nose & Ear Trimmer safely, start with clean, dry hair, use gentle circular motions, and clean the trimmer after each use to prevent irritation and maintain performance.

Step-by-Step Safe Trimming Routine

1. Clean and dry the area: Wash your face and ears with mild soap and water, then pat them completely dry. Trimming dry hair is easier and less likely to pull or snag. Never trim wet hair—it can cause the trimmer to grab and pull.
2. Choose the right attachment or setting: If your trimmer includes guards or adjustable settings, select the one suited for the area you're trimming. For nose and ears, a shorter guard or no guard is typically best for precision. Using too long a guard can leave uneven results; too short may irritate skin.
3. Trim with gentle circular motions: Insert the trimmer just inside the nostril or ear canal, then move it in slow, circular motions while pressing lightly. Avoid pushing too deep or applying pressure. Stop if you feel any pain or discomfort—that's a sign you're pressing too hard.
4. Trim visible hairs only: Focus on hairs that are visible outside the nostril or ear. Don't try to remove hair deep inside the canal, as this can cause irritation or injury. The goal is to tidy up, not to clear the entire canal.
5. Clean the trimmer after each use: Remove any hair clippings from the blades using the included brush or rinse under running water if the trimmer is washable. Dry it thoroughly before storing. Regular cleaning prevents bacteria buildup and keeps the blades sharp.
