Hey Tony! It’s been a long time. This was such a great and informative video! I love the close-ups of each razors too! I actually just finished ordering the Leaf Thorn in the special edition Berryblue color! I can’t wait to receive it. I actually came really close to getting the Leaf Twig but just never got to get one. Now that the Thorn is out and is slightly more aggressive, it definitely sounds like a home run to me! Especially in blue lol. Thanks again for the videos. Stay blessed!

Great video, love your channel. I've been emailing with leaf on these 2 and interesting what they told me is that there is no difference in the blade exposure on them. The only difference is the blade gap is slightly larger on the thorn. So when I'm ready I think the thorn is for me even though my skin is more on the sensitive side. Plus I can trade in for the twig if it turns out too aggressive! Great company to deal with. No brainier

I use both, it's a little cumbersome but I shave my head so it's worth. I use thorn to knock down large stubble, hair is still pretty dense but once it's down the original twig is easier on the scalp. I also use the twig on body with less concern of cuts. If I had to pick one though, it'd be the thorn.

Hi there I recently ordered the twig razor and tried it out on my face and head. I have to shave my face daily for work and would like to get away with shaving my head once a week using the same razor. Well unfortunately the twig was not up to snuff and I had to do several passes on both my face and head and it still left some stubble. I'm wondering if the thorn would have been a better fit as it's more aggressive and would ideally require less passes. Could the thorn handle 6-7 days of head hair growth without having to go over it several times? I thought about the leaf, but people were saying the twig/thorn worked better on the face and around the ears, and was easier to grip than the leaf. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Eric

@LifeAsAtlas

2 жыл бұрын

@@ericbumphrey7922 The thorn makes a huge difference against density and growth. I also suggest using a sharper razor if you can handle. Feather razor blades are what I need on my head (less snagging on coarse dense hair) but otherwise any other razor blade does the job.

Is this twig good enough for thick stubble? I’d get the Thorn but have sensitive skin especially the neck so I avoid shaving every day but use sharper blades. If I use razors that are too mild they get clogged up pretty quick. At the moment use a Rockwell with a 4 or 6 plate
