 You will be glad you got these blades Dec 29, 2006
By D. Dell
"Dell"
Replacement blades are a must. The razor will remind you about once a year which is fine in most cases. But, if you have a heavy beard or shave more than once a day, as I do, then you should replace the blades every 8 months or so. The reminder on the razor is only a suggestion, not a command. After all, it does not know when the blades get dull. So, I simply ignore the reminder and replace the blades when I feel it is necessary.
One thing you must do is use the new blades for several days until they settle in and adjust to your skin. Until then you may have a little irritation. Another problem I have solved is the hair on my neck. I use to think the harder I press the razor, the better it would get those stray hairs. But, all I got was a rash. I discovered that if I simply use a very light touch and not press hard then it got those hairs much better and with no redness.
Replace your blades at least once a year and your face with thank you.

Old into like-new1 Jul 22, 2007
By Sub Man
Purchasing the Norelco HQ8 Spectra Tripleheader Replacement heads for my 5+ year-old Norelco razor was a really good move. The "old "razor" now works like a new razor. I should have replaced the heads long ago but kept using the old ones and complaining that "I need to get a new razor."

The guy who said they are not durable is incorrect Jan 30, 2006
By Robert Silvers
He determined they are not durable because the 'replace heads' light came on soon after he installed them. That is just because he replaced the heads early before the light came on. The light is just a timer and comes on every so many minutes of use. His new heads were fine, but he did not understand what makes the 'replace heads' light come on.

Great Replacement Blades! Feb 19, 2008
By K. Avery
"blootnik"
I've been a Norelco triple headed electric razor user for over 25 years. The razor which I use now is one which is about four years old and still going strong. Replacing the blades [heads] every 6 - 12 months is still cheaper than purchasing a new Norelco razor. I've not noticed any irritation after installing new heads, just a better shave with less effort. Keep your old razor and replace the heads! You can't go wrong! Amazon's price for these HQ 8 Spectra replacements was the lowest I could find on the Internet. Shipped very fast!

 Shameful Price Gouging By Norelco Dec 20, 2010
By Alan Houston
"alanhouston-texas"
I bought my Norelco shaver for $30. Next to it on the store shelf were the HQ8 replacement heads, selling for the SAME $30. So, Norelco sells a new shaver, with cutting heads, rechargeable batteries, and a charger for the same price as the heads alone!!!
Presumably, Norelco makes some profit on the new $30 razor. The three cutting heads represent, maybe, 20% of the value of the new razor...or about $6 in value. So, to sell the replacement heads for $30 or for the discounted Amazon.com price of $25 is robbery.
Norelco seems to be telling its customers to simply buy a new shaver each time the cutting heads begin to get dull...encouraging more wastefulness on a planet being buried in waste...thanks Norelco.
