I don’t know if anyone mentioned this already but they have a 30 day guarantee if that helps. Check their site for details.

Still using my leaf 3 times a week for my head shaves. I only wish the handle was shorter and thicker... the long/thin handle was clearly designed for mass consumer appeal.

For reference, how does it compare to your previous head shaver?
Thanks

I got a shipping notice from Leaf Razors today...looks like they're sending me 1 so we can try it out on the forum.

Great!! Can't wait to hear your (and other user's) feedback!

So far I'm getting the impression that the Leaf is pretty much hit or miss.

I ended up buying 1 a day before Leaf sent me an email from a user on here..I think I'll enjoy it for my dome and I'm thinking my wife might like it more than her lady gillette she's been using for a while now.

I got my leaf razor that I purchased as well as the one leaf sent me on Monday afternoon. Hopefully I'll get some photos up on Tuesday or Wednesday night and start the pass around shortly after then.

I'll likely use the leaf razor I purchased to shave my head tomorrow night.

took some photos of my leaf razor compared to some DE razors I use as well as some cartridge razors I use to shave my head:

tonight was my first head shave with the leaf razor. I loaded up all 3 blade slots with new Astra SP blades. The loading of blades is pretty simple and once the screw on the rear of the head is tight the blades didn't move around at all.

the handle grip isn't bad - it didn't slide around in my hands at all. I do wish the handle was slightly shorter and perhaps a little wider as it kind of feels like you're holding a pencil when shaving. I wouldn't mind if the razor itself weighed a little less as well.

the shave itself was fine. I'll need to spend more time with the razor before having a concrete answer. I wished the shave was slightly closer...maybe something a different blade change and possibly some light pressure might fix? shaving around my ears was interesting and something I ended up leaving for my cartridge razors for now.

something I liked about the razor is that it did not clog up while shaving my head. sometimes cartridges are prone to getting clogged up with hair, especially when shaving the head.

Very interesting. Is gillette guard still your favorite head shaver?
