Philips Precision Trimmer 4000 Touch-up pen trimmer Model HP6388/00

• This is a compact pen-style trimmer for women’s grooming by Philips: model HP6388/00. 

• It’s designed for facial hair and eyebrow grooming, featuring a small “1/3″ trimming head” for precision. 

• It supports two trimming lengths (2 mm and 4 mm) via a comb attachment for eyebrows. 

• It runs on a single AAA (or included battery) for cordless portability. 

• The device is marketed as an on-the-go beauty tool for quick touch-ups of fine hairs on the face (e.g., upper lip, sideburns) as well as shaping eyebrows. 

 Key Benefits

For your grooming or model-prep use (especially if you work on visuals, shoots, or need models looking clean & polished), these are the main benefits:

• Precision grooming: The small trimming head allows accurate removal of fine hairs (upper lip, under chin, sideburns, brow area) without needing bulky gear.

• Portable & convenient: Runs cordless on a single AAA battery and compact in size — good for touch-ups backstage, on the go, between shoots or on location.

• Dual length control for brows: The included comb for 2 mm/4 mm lengths helps you shape eyebrows with some uniformity rather than free-hand — useful when prepping models for consistent look across shots.

• Less visible grooming: Since it focuses on fine hairs, it helps create cleaner skin surfaces (important for close-up visuals or high-resolution brand assets) — fewer stray fine hairs means less post-production or patch correction.

• Budget-friendly grooming tool: For personal grooming and model prep alike, this is a relatively moderate cost tool that covers fine-hair touch-up rather than full body or heavy hair removal.

 How to Use It

Here’s a practical step-by-step, especially relevant if you’re prepping models for shoots or doing grooming in a studio/backstage environment:

1. Prepare the area

   • Clean the skin surface where you plan to trim (face/upper lip/brows). Remove makeup or moisturiser if it covers the hairs.

   • For eyebrows: brush the brow hairs upward/outward so you see stray hairs and can shape cleanly.

2. Install the comb attachment (if shaping brows)

   • Choose the comb for 2 mm or 4 mm length (depending on how much hair you want left). 

   • Snap the comb onto the trimming head securely.

3. Trim/shape with the device

   • Turn the device on (ensure battery installed and good).

   • Hold the trimming head flat or slightly angled and gently move against the direction of hair growth for upper lip or sideburn area; for brows, modest strokes along the hair growth direction with light pressure.

   • For fine stray hairs, you may remove comb and use trimming head alone for closest removal.

4. Clean and finish

   • After use, turn off device and remove the head/comb (if possible) to clean hairs. Use the small brush included to remove trimmed hair from head. 

   • Wipe the area (model’s face) with a clean cloth, and then you may apply a light moisturiser or soothing gel especially if skin looks slightly red.

   • For modelling/grooming prep: follow with any base skincare or makeup routine to ensure model skin is ready for shoot.

5. Maintenance

   • Replace battery when device slows or under-performs.

   • Store in a clean, dry place (especially in humid climates) to avoid corrosion of the head.

   • Clean head regularly and if wear/damage observed replace the trimming head (if spare parts available).
