Genuine Philips SH71/51 replacement shaving heads (full set). After about two years your heads have cut millions of hairs* — swap them and get back to 100% performance.
Who it's for. Series 7000, angular Series 5000 / 6000, and 500-series owners whose shave has gone dull or scratchy. Not for rounded Series 5000 heads (those need SH50).
Will it fit? Check the back of your handle for SH71 (or SH70 — SH71 replaces it). Fits S7000, angular S5000/S6000, and 500 series. Does not fit rounded S5000 or SensoTouch RQ10xx/RQ12xx. Unsure? Send us your model number.
