Gillette ProGlide men's 5-blade razor handle + 1 blade refill — FlexBall contouring, Precision Trimmer

This ProGlide kit combines an ergonomic handle and a single replaceable ProGlide cartridge engineered to follow facial contours while minimizing tug and irritation. The cartridge features five anti-friction blades, an enhanced Lubrastrip that fades to signal when performance declines, and a Precision Trimmer on the rear for edging and detailing. The handle’s FlexBall technology helps keep blade contact through curves, and ProGlide refills are compatible with most Gillette five-blade handles (excluding GilletteLabs).

How does the FlexBall handle improve my daily shave?

The FlexBall mechanism allows the razor head to pivot and maintain blade contact across jawlines, chin, and neck. That adaptive movement reduces the need for repeated strokes and helps the blades capture more hair with each pass.

• Responsive articulation to follow facial contours
• Reduces pressure and repeated strokes
• Helps reach tricky angles near the jaw and under the chin

What makes the ProGlide blade cartridge different from other cartridges?

The ProGlide cartridge packs five ultra-thin, anti-friction blades spaced and stabilized to deliver closeness with comfort. An enlarged Lubrastrip provides smoother glide and visually fades to indicate when the cartridge has worn down.

• Five anti-friction blades for a close, consistent cut
• Enhanced Lubrastrip for added glide and fade-to-warn feature
• Blade stabilization to maintain optimal spacing for comfort

Can I use the Precision Trimmer for styling and hard-to-reach areas?

Yes. The narrow Precision Trimmer on the back of the cartridge is designed for shaping sideburns, trimming under the nose, and defining edges where the full blade surface is too broad. It gives more control when you need fine lines or detailed grooming.

• Exact trimming edge for shaping moustaches and sideburns
• Good for small, precise passes in tight spots
• Pairs with the main blade for an all-in-one grooming routine

How long does one ProGlide refill last and how does it fit existing Gillette handles?

ProGlide refills are engineered for longevity and can provide up to 20 comfortable shaves depending on beard coarseness and maintenance. The cartridge fits most Gillette five-blade handles, offering a straightforward replacement option when your Lubrastrip fades.

• Estimated up to 20 shaves per refill under typical use
• Compatible with most Gillette five-blade handles (excludes GilletteLabs)
• Replace cartridge when Lubrastrip color indicates reduced performance
