Caution:
Norelco tells you to replace the heads every 12 months, however, that can be excessive in some situations. If you use your Advantage shaver in a dry mode (without lubricant), then replacing the heads yearly is about accurate. However, what Norelco doesn't tell you (and the reason why most people buy an Advantage) is that if you use this shaver when your face is warm, wet, and with a lubricant (i.e. shaving in the shower) then you can easily go 2 years without replacing the cutters.

The reason for this is because dry shaving with an electric razor is extremely hard on any blade (not just these ones). By warming and wetting your face and whiskers with water and a lubricant (there are many to choose from), you can decrease blade wear by about 60%! It's also more gentle on your face and can prevent/decrease razor burn.

Skin Care Tip:
If you're concerned about healthy skin, skin cancer, and/or want to keep your skin looking young as you get older, it's best to apply an after shave lotion on your entire face with SPF shortly after the shave, while your pores are still open. You also need to apply it every day, not just on days that you shave. Pay the extra and get an after shave lotion with SPF and NOT a big bottle of generic sun block; you just might end up smelling like coconuts. The lotion can be a little pricey when you see the size of the bottle you get for your money, but just remember what your buying it for. And lastly, and this is VERY important, make sure that it blocks both UVA and UVB; not all of them do.

I have had my Nelreco razor for 5 years now and was forced to replace the blades after one of the combs was damaged during a trip to Hawaii. I ordered the OEM replacement blades and combs from Amazon and was at my door two days later (standard shipping). Received it fast and now my razor wooks good as new. I only had to go to work for two days with a short beard. Nelreco recommends you replace the blades once a year and now that I have the new set, I must agree as I could see the immediate difference. Replace once a year...

the item came when expected. glad they still make these replacement blades for my electric shaver. price was acceptable. would buy again.

This was exactly what I was looking for, in terms of replacement heads. They work great, and I am very happy.

These blades fit perfectly and made all the difference in the performance of my razor! I will be purchasing another set
in a few months!

The blades sent to me do not fit my razor. The part number is correct, but the way the circular blades are made they do not fit onto the spindles that project from the razor. Hence they are unusable.

I did not realize how dull my blades were until I replaced them with new ones. After replacing the blades with these OEM blades I was very suprised at how much faster and better of a cut I am now getting. My razor is also less noisey with new blades. If you have had your razor over 8 months I would suggest you change 'em!

I couldn't find this in store cant afford a new razor yet. Great price. Philips Norelco HQ167 Cool Skin Replacement Heads for 6700 Series

Amazon has the best price on these heads for my old 5715X Norelco. I use the razor dry and replace the heads once a year. It's next to impossible to find them in stores where I live. Kinney drugs is the only one that sells them and they are $39.99. Recommend getting them here to anyone.

I received this new head in a timely manner, it performed just like a new razor when I installed the new heads
