      @TCX-up6hs 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @TheGameChanger depends how often you shave. The leaf OR the twig would be plenty if you shave frequently. If you take long breaks between shaves you’d require a trimmer/clipper to knock the hair down some before using your leaf or twig.

I didn't expect to find a whole community of people going through the same as me with such positivity.

    Have the Leaf/Twig combo myself. Absolutely fabulous head shave razor combo! I have switched to the Astra "green" blades myself. The Leaf blades are good, but I experienced some pulling/tugging with them when going ATG. Astra's slice like a hot knife through butter. I'll eventually try my Feather blades, but the Astra's are hard to beat for the price vs performance.

    Leaf one kind of looks like a modern DE safety razor. Looks pretty cool, I won't lie. A bit "steam punky" And as much as I love the aesthetic of my vintage Wilkinson Sword D.E, it's too tidiuous for me to use daily. Is like a 20minute ritual ha.
    I'm usually super skeptical of promos *cough* surfshark *cough* Raycon earbuds, but you've always been authentic since the beginning. I trust your judgement. And I'm happy you are partnered with this product 😊.

    Bought a Leaf razor about a year ago. Used it a couple of times and it cut me up bad. So it's been in the cupboard ever since. After watching this video I got inspired to give it another go. Tried not to apply any pressure and was quite pleased with the results. Only 1 cut. I guess it's just practice. I want to like the Leaf so much and I will try to keep using it for a while to see if I can improve my technique. Thanks for your video.

    • @Baldcafe
      @Baldcafe  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I made the same mistake initially too. Applying too much pressure and really Kida rushing things. Now I pretty much just shave across the grain on the most part with a nice continuous shaving stroke and it really does the trick. Because I don't need to go over and over it works out about the same time. Stick with it 👍

    • @TCX-up6hs
      @TCX-up6hs 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I had the same experience and went back to cartridges. After about a year I decided to bust the Leaf back out. I knew it had to be user error or an incompatible blade or something. The Leaf has since become my favorite shaver. I now have a Twig on the way.

    Just ordered the duo kit from leaf. Was a baldy for about 18 months fourteen years ago and just started reshaping my head again three weeks ago today. Using the Gillette pro shield with okay results plus, I’ve retained my beard that I continue to keep trimmed on a more professional level. The post head shave sensitivity is very real. I look forward to trying the twig for how it works for me.

    After watching the video it isn't entirely clear to me, whether there is a substantial difference in the shaving result between the Leaf and the Twig. Could you elaborate on that? When on a budget is it still better to get the Leaf because of some benefits or is the Twig enough. Or perhaps it is advisable to save up and get both? Planning on using it pretty much on my whole body. Great video man, love the positivity as always!

    • @azku
      @azku 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I have both, and I have been using them for quite a while for headshave.
      If u are gonna use it for headshave, I would highly recommend the Leaf.
      I end up using the Leaf all the time. 2 or 3 pass shave. I only use the Twig for the last touch up around the ears (The Leaf is a bit bulky).
      The Leaf is currently my all time favourite for headshave. Better than the Twig, better than any DE razor (I have lots of them including the expensive ones like Timeless, Karve etc).
      So if u are still for either the Leaf or the Twig for headshave, I would highly recommend the Leaf.

    Love your podcast! I am torn between the “Leaf” and the “Twig” for my head shaves. Currently I use a “Rex Ambassador “ DE for the unbearded parts of my face. (A 1-6 adjustable DE that I would love to see you review). I love triple edge plastic razors for my head because it’s a quick shave in the shower, but I am thinking that a single blade would be better for my skin. Anyway, I am hoping that you will follow up here with your report on which is the better head shave razor. Thank you for all of your podcasts!

      I’d say the safest bet is to go with the leaf especially because you will have the option of using 1, 2 or 3 blades and even the option to have them in different locations on the razor head depending on how aggressive you’d like the razor. Gives you that customizable shave and do guilt on being wasteful. It’s an absolute winner for me 👍

      I think if you are coming from DE razor, twig feels more like a DE razors. It's smaller and more manourable.
      I just bought both, and still deciding which one I like better.

      @@longbowsafari9974 I just had another headshave with the Leaf this morning.
      I think probably the Leaf is easier to shave with overall (for headshave). It's a bit bulky, so can be tricky to go around the ear.
      I think probably it feels more like a cartridge razor (I never used cartridge razor for headshaving though).
      The shave is quite effortless due to the moving head, but I'm still getting used to it. I find I need to put a little bit more pressure than I'm used to to get it to cut.
      The handle is long and bulky, so I have to change my grip a little bit.
      Overall, I had one of the best shave this morning. Effortless, no cut, no irritation, no razor burn, very close shave.

    Do you fill all 3 slots when you shave or just use 2? I like the idea of just using 1 blade snapped in half instead of using 1.5 blades, but curious what you think. Thanks!

      I use a single Astra "green" DE snapped in half. Load in the bottom and middle slots. All you need. I've tried all 3 slots loaded, but imho using the two slots mentioned above provides just as great a shave as all 3 slots loaded.

    Well, apparently in this video Leaf Razor is the best option for shaving your head? Do you still think the same? I have shaved my head since the beginning of the pandemic and I discovered that my appearance improved, according to all my friends and family, that is why I decided to continue being bald. But I don't want to use disposable cartridges anymore because it's too expensive to look bald.
    I bought a safety razor but discovered that it is not the same to shave the head, I do not like the way it looks, it is difficult to shave against the grain, I find it difficult to admit but even a low cost disposable razor gives better results than shaving the head with safety razor.
    I am willing to try another option but this time I do not want to be wrong, if I buy the Leaf Razor I must be sure that the result will be as incredible as a disposable razor.
    Please, I will appreciate your honest feedback, do you still recommend the leaf razor for a wonderful and perfect head shaving experience? because it is not economical and I must be sure that the finish is the same as a disposable razor.
    Thank you for your response and opinion. Greetings

    Leaf razor is a cool idea but it's expensive. It will take a few hundred shaves to break even if you are using something like mach 3 and cartridge packs. That could be years depending on how often you shave. With all those moving parts there is a lot that could go wrong.
    But as I said the idea is cool and if it gets enough attention we will see Chinese clones soon

    • @paulcarlin5181

      I have come to expect that it all costs. I have discovered that for me the Defender Razor works really well for bald head shaving. I could get a years worth of shaving for about 70 bucks. SOme might say that is great or others scoff at. I am ok with it, goodness knows I have blown a hundred at a strip club in twenty minutes. I would like to think since I use a product for 100 times a year, that my face,head and comfort is worth the money spent. Shaving just costs money and we have to accept it. No electric or otherwise shave method is perfect. Every product has a flaw. It comes down to what we are ok with spending, dealing with (razor burn), and tolerance.

It's listed on Agent Shave for the same price with 0.2mm greater blade gap and 0.18mm greater span. Turn between the two versions but ultimately wanting the closest shave possible so leaving towards the aggressive version. In your opinion could the 'normal' one do with being more aggressive?
