Leaf Two Razor

So far I am enjoying my new razor!

I bought this about 2 weeks ago. For context, I am a girl that has a lot of shaving/skin problems. If you’re like me you know what I’m talking about. I’ve tried a lot of products and tips and tricks and I still get razor bumps and ingrown hairs. Men’s razors, women’s razors, single blade, multi blade, shave gel, shave foam, shave cream, shave syrup, coconut oil, conditioner, shave oil, hair removal cream, shave bar, sugaring, doing exfoliation, not doing exfoliation, using an oil vs a lotion after shaving…it goes on and on and I still have not found something I’m satisfied with. It’s so frustrating especially being in my late 20’s. Up until now I have actually been using an electric razor (without getting the smooth close shave I’d like) because it’s not worth the pain of the way my skin looks after. I have only shaved my legs once using this leaf razor, and I am still getting used to using the swivel head and how much pressure to apply. I did cut myself a couple times, and think it will take time for my ingrowns to heal. But, the razor does move easily and the shave is close. I have shaved under my arms twice with it, and for the most part the razor does well and the underarms don’t look too bad. As for the bikini area, I am too timid to just use a razor for now so I used my electric razor first to cut the hair length down, and then used the leaf razor to get the final shave done. The shave oil works great, it glided well, and I am happy so far with how that shave went. I will have to use the razor more before trusting it wholeheartedly. I do like all of the products that come in the bundle, I like the stand and the case and the blade supplies. I like that it is reusable and a reduction of plastic waste.

Easy switch from disposables for body shaving

The razor appears well-made and is a pretty easy switch from a disposable razor in terms of use, unlike a lot of traditional safety razors. I have had a bit of an increase in nicks as I've gotten used to using this instead of my old disposables, but that's becoming less frequent as I get accustomed to the Leaf Two. I use it to shave my legs and underarms, and the pivoting head navigates all the bends and turns well. I definitely recommend this if you're looking to cut back on plastic waste or have sensitive skin, but you absolutely MUST have a good slick body wash or shave soap because the razor doesn't have a lubricating strip like a disposable would. Also, if you're using this in the shower where everything is slippery, definitely get the added grip sleeve to prevent dropping this.

Close and comfortable

I got a very close shave with no damage to my face. The handle feels a little awkward in my hand. I am used to a round handle and this handle is not round. The razor has some weight. All in all it is a nice addition to my collection.
