A shaving apparatus () having a first shaving unit portion () connected to a main housing () and accommodating a single driven input member () rotatable about an axis of rotation. A second shaving unit portion () of the shaving apparatus has a hair-cutting unit () and a drive unit () which transmits a driving force from the single driven input member to an internal cutting member () of the hair-cutting unit. The second shaving unit portion is manually rotatable relative to the first shaving unit portion about the axis of rotation of the single driven input member. An adjustment system () has a sensing unit () configured to have an output property which varies with the angular position of the second shaving unit portion relative to the first shaving unit portion about the rotational axis. The adjustment system adjusts an operational parameter of the shaving apparatus in dependence on the output property of the sensing unit.

A hand held personal care devicehas a main housingarranged to be held by hand, and an operative unitconnected to the main FIG.housingand adapted for carrying out a personal care operation to a body part of a user. The main housinghas a main axis of extensionand accommodates a light indicatorfor indicating an operational condition of the personal care device. The light indicatorhas a light emitting surface, that extends circumferentially around the main housingas a closed-loop surface about the main axis of extension, and a light guiding wallof which at least a portion, including the closed-loop surface, extends as a closed-loop wall portionabout the main axis of extension.

A hair cutting device includes a hair cutting device body and an interchangeable comb unit for defining a hair length after cutting. The hair cutting device body further includes a comb interface for releasable attachment of the comb unit to the hair cutting device body, and a hair length indicator operatively coupled to the comb interface for indicating the hair length to a user. The interchangeable comb unit includes a comb identification member for identifying a hair length associated with the comb unit, and the comb interface includes a comb recognition arrangement being electrically coupled to the hair length indicator. The comb recognition arrangement is configured to sense the comb identification member when the comb unit is connected to the hair cutting device body, and to provide an electronic signal indicative of the hair length associated with the comb unit to the hair length indicator.
