Does shaving make your hair grow back darker or thicker? |
| |
Since the dawn of mini-skirts, plenty of ladies have been sweating over this needlessly. That’s because removing hair on the skin’s surface has no effect on the color or thickness of the hair. Hair shafts just starting to emerge a day or two after shaving are notorious for having a coarse, rougher feel. If you allow the hair to grow out, it will take on its original appearance and texture.

Are shaving gels or creams really necessary? |
| |
Shaving gels and creams are not only fun to dispense out of their shiny cans—they’re also vital to a high performance shave. The reason is that unlike soap, shaving gels and creams hold moisture close to the skin. This lets the razor glide more easily.

Will shaving remove cellulite, give me better dancing skills or magically transport me to wonderful islands with waterfalls? |
| |
Sorry, not yet. But it’s in development. We’ll get back to you in 2089. |

Will shaving take away my tan? |
| |
Fear not, golden girls! Tanning occurs at the lower levels of your skin, where the skin's pigment cells are located. Razor blades never come in contact with these cells. In fact, shaving with a high performance razor like Quattro® For Women™ can actually "polish" your skin, removing flaky surface cells and improving the look of your tan. |

What makes the Quattro For Women® razor better than other razors? |
| |
Until now, a woman looking for a high performance razor had to “borrow” a man’s razor. That changed with the Quattro For Women® razor. As the only women’s razor to boast four-blade technology and a sleek metal handle, it gives you precise control over your shaving. How’s that for innovation?

Isn’t the Quattro For Women® razor just a men’s Quattro® painted fuchsia? |
| |
From the number of women who’ve been “borrowing” the men’s Quattro® razor, we know it has a lot of female fans. We could’ve just made it fuchsia and called it a ladies’ razor.
Instead, the engineers at Schick® got busy creating a new razor that drew on the men’s Quattro® razor for inspiration, but was built specifically for a woman. The pivoting head, for example, is sized and shaped to reach the places a woman shaves.

Why do I need a razor with four blades? |
| |
Sure, a 15-minute foot rub is great. But if you’re already at a spa, wouldn’t you rather have a full-hour, deep-down body massage? That’s the idea behind the four specially synchronized blades. You’ve got to shave anyway. So why not get as many hairs as you can with a single stroke? Why not enjoy a close, effortlessly smooth shave?

Is “high performance” really for me? |
| |
The Quattro For Women® razor has the look of a fancy, high-tech gadget. But unlike those fancy gadgets, you’ll gladly use your Quattro For Women® razor on a regular basis. This is because its four blades provide a close shave and the solid rubber grip keeps you in control. Can your cell phone/organizer/camera do that? |

How do I keep my guy’s paws off my razor? |
| |
Schick’s engineers gave Quattro For Women® razors a highly sophisticated built-in defense mechanism: the color fuchsia. It has been shown to be 90.6% effective in preventing guy-trial (in laboratory tests we fully intend to actually conduct someday). |

Will my loofah get jealous? |
| |
It’s easy to imagine how you’d feel if you were a dried-up gourd on a stick trying to compete with the sleek, metal artistry of a Quattro For Women® razor! The good news is these two don’t have to fight for a place in the shower. Experts actually recommend exfoliating with a loofah before you shave for supremely smooth results. How’s that for teamwork? |

 |
How often should I change my Quattro For Women® blade cartridge? |
| |
For the optimal high performance shave, Schick’s engineers recommend replacing the cartridge after five uses. Some people prefer to wait a little longer between replacements. Just keep in mind that your risk of getting of nicks, cuts and irritation goes up big-time the longer you use a cartridge. Of course, if you’re a hard-core perfectionist, change things more frequently. |

 |
Can I give my Quattro For Women® razor a name? |
| |
That’s a great idea. In fact, we’ve noticed some trends as women everywhere have started to name their Quattro® razors. The action hero theme is pretty popular this season, with names like Fuzz Ninja and Stubble Striker at the top of the list.
