As with any quality shaver, there is the need to purchase replacement heads like the Norelco HQ9 replacement heads to ensure the closest and best shave available. With time blades dull and at some point replacement blades are necessary. The quality Norelco shavers also need to have their heads replaced occasionally for users to continue to experience the close, quality shave they have become accustom to with their Norelco shaver product.

The Norelco HQ9 replacement heads work for a couple different Norelco shavers that are currently on the market. The Norelco speed XL and the Norelco SmartTouchXL shaving systems are both shaving systems that can make use of replacement heads to keep the shaving system operating at its best by providing the closest shave possible.

The Norelco HQ9 replacement heads provide 50% more shaving surface than the average blade. The larger shaving surface provides a closer shave that leaves skin smooth and with less change of the five o’clock shadow developing. The smoother shave that the replacement heads provide is noticeable not only to the user, but also to those around them.

The Norelco HQ9 replacement heads are a very economical buy at under $30 dollars an average and can last for quite some time depending on the type of hair that the user has and how often they use their Norelco shaving system. Replacing the heads on a Norelco shave is less expensive over time than purchasing disposable shaving systems that also do not seem to offer the same quality shave as a Norelco shaving system and the subsequent replacement heads.

If a person is looking to by one of the Norelco shaving systems that use the Norelco HQ9 replacement heads then it is a good idea to buy some replacement heads at the same time as buying the rest of the system. A person can always buy more replacements, but having extras heads right from the beginning is very helpful particularly if this is a gift.
