Tips /
You can load 1, 2 or 3 blades into The Leaf razor to truly customize it to suit your needs. Want the closest shave? Load all 3. Want to dial things back? Remove the bottom blade. The stacked blades are spaced further apart than cartridges for an irritation-free, efficient shave.
All of our razors are designed to be open, compatible with any standard safety razor blade. Leaf blades come as single-edges, ready to load right out of the wrapper.
Yet any double-edge blade can be snapped in half to yield two single-edges as well. This gives you the freedom to enjoy Leaf's blades or find one that suits you better.
A long, balanced handle delivers control. And if you need extra support slide on our silicone sleeve for extra grip.
Care / Pair great with Leaf Razor Stand to keep the water away
While using Leaf Razor, rinse from the front and back as needed to keep the blade-face clear of hair. Some shavers like to employ 'buffing' or 'back and forth' shaving technique which involves a short "back-stroke" before a forward shaving stroke. The backstroke clears hair from the blade-face, this technique can cut down on rinsing but may not be the best fit for everyone's skin.
After you finish using Leaf Razor, rinse thoroughly from the outside, or open the head up and rinse from within / amongst the blades. Opening and rinsing the blades individually is *not necessary* but some folks like to do this after heavy shaves to ensure the cleanest tool between uses.
To get the longest life from your blades, pat them dry between uses. Water will shorten the life of any shaving blade. Drying your blades is *not necessary* but some folks may want to eek out the longest life from their blades.
EVERY NOW AND THEN
If you find your razor accumulating shave soap residue / hair residue, we suggest periodically scrubbing it clean. First, remove all of the blades.
Take an old toothbrush (designated razor cleaning brush) and apply a small amount of dish soap to it. With water, scrub all over, working up a good bubbly lather from the soap. Scrub the front, the back, around the screw crown, open the head and scrub on top and beneath each layer. Work all of the nooks and crannies until you are satisfied.
Thoroughly rinse the soap off, and use a soft cloth or towel to dry the razor. If you'd like, you can finish this cleaning with a dunk in rubbing alcohol. Reinstall a fresh set of blades.
DEEP CLEANSE AS NEEDED
If your razor has long-term soap residue, or rust-stains from the blades: prepare a bath of diluted white vinegar (1:1 with water) and soak the razor for no more than 10 minutes. Then perform the above cleaning process.
Packaging / All paper - recycle or compost
