      Hi, thanks for your review regarding the Norelco 3000 Series Trimmer. We are sorry to hear that it is not trimming your nose hairs well, and hope we can improve your experience. Nose trimmers are built with a protective guard, such as the models with a cutting element on each side, ensuring the blades will not be in direct contact with the skin. The protection guard leaves short stubs of hair. It gives you a clean look without risk of cuts, ingrown hairs or hair pulling. We suggest moving the trimming head properly around in your nose, to catch the hairs growing in different directions. While rotating you may hold the flat side of the trimmer against the skin to reduce any tickling effect that might occur. We hope this helps!

      If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch via social media. We’re available 24/7 on Facebook and Twitter. Alternatively, you can reach out to us via the contact page on our website www.philips.com/support. One of our colleagues will then try their best to help you further.

      Hope to speak to you soon!

      Kind regards,
      Philips Consumer Care philipsglobal

    Eastern Mediterranean man hear. I used to love their older unit . It worked like a razor blade and used it for ear hair and beard shaping. However they changed the blade shape and now it’s useless. It doesn’t get a close cut at all.

    I ordered the Philips Norelco hair trimmer, They checked and said it was in stock. The next day they canceled it. I then re-ordered it, again they said it was in stock. This process took over three hours and this was very unsatisfactory to order one simple item. I could have gone somewhere else to purchase it. I should be compensated for this frustrating situation.

      Hi Forenz, thank you for taking your time to leave this review. We are very sorry to hear that your experience with our trimmer is far from perfect. Please allow us to suggest a few tips that can improve your experience. It could be that the battery is empty, or a cutting element is blocked. If you have confirmed that your Philips Nose Trimmer has a full battery and it is still not working, then it may not be working because it is dirty and the cutting unit is blocked. We advise that you clean your nose trimmer after each use for optimal performance. We kindly ask you to follow our cleaning advice:
      1. Rinse the trimming head of the nose trimmer with lukewarm water. Switch on your nose trimmer after 15 seconds and switch off the appliance again after 5 seconds. Retry a few times.
      2. If rinsing the trimming head under the tap is not sufficient, immerse the trimming head in a glass of warm water for a few minutes. Do not put the handle of the trimmer in the water, as this can damage its internal machinery. Repeat step 1 again.
      3. If this does not help, detach the nose trimmer attachment and soak this part separately in water for 8 hours. Reattach and repeat step 1 again.
      4. If the trimmer is operable again: carefully shake off excess water and let the trimmer air dry.
      5. For best results, clean your nose trimmer after each use and lubricate the trimming head with a drop of sewing machine oil every six months.
      Should this not help, please feel free to get in
      touch via social media. We’re available 24/7 on Facebook and
      Twitter. Alternatively, you can reach out to us via the contact
      page on our website. One of our colleagues will then try their
      best to help you further.

      Hi, thanks for your review regarding our Philips 3000 Hair Trimmer. We are sorry to hear that your experience has not yet been the best, and hope we can help! The trimmer requires regular cleaning to function properly, as hair or debris can get stuck in the device and affect its performance. To clean this device, kindly take off the attachments and cutter and clean the area underneath it with water. Make sure not to use soapy water or any cleaning detergents, as this can remove the protective grease on the cutter and effect its performance. Next, wash and dry the attachments separately before reattaching them to the device. We hope this will help!
      If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch via social media. We’re available 24/7 on Facebook and Twitter. Alternatively, you can reach out to us via the contact page on our website www.philips.com/support. One of our colleagues will then try their best to help you further. Hope to speak to you soon! Kind regards, Philips Consumer Care philipsglobal

    I'll keep this short and sweet. It comes with a installed blade guard so you can't get close enough to being a bald shave. Waste of money, I'm pretty upset!
