      Hi, thank you for leaving a review. We are saddened to hear that the trimmer is not working for you. The Philips Nose Trimmer is a multi-functional device, which comfortably trims your nose, ear, and eyebrow hair. Your nose trimmer may not seem to work if you do not use the device properly. Other reasons that the product is not working might be that the battery is empty, or a cutting element is blocked.

      Feel free to contact us for more in-depth detailed troubleshooting instructions. 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

      Hi Richard, thank you for taking your time to leave this review. We are very sorry about your experience with our trimmer, and we would like to see how we can improve it. Please allow us to suggest few tips to improve it.
      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.

      Please move 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. 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.

      Please follow our cleaning advice below:
      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.
      However, we are still happy to look into this matter further! 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.
      Hope to speak to you soon!
      Kind regards,
      Philips Consumer Care philipsglobal

      Hi James, thanks for reaching out to us regarding your Philips 3000 Hair Trimmer. We are sorry to hear that it is not performing well on thick hair and hope we can help! Your Philips Trimmer may come with different attachments to use on your hair and beard. Kindly make sure to use the correct attachment on the corresponding area. Another tip: Wet hair is more difficult to trim as they tend to stick to your skin and can be missed by the device. Therefore, we advise clipping your hair when it is completely dry. We hope these suggestions 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!
