You can say:
"Kafam biraz güzel" not "kafam az güzel". I cannot give you a good explanation for it at the moment.

No, no. I found it 
with adjectives you always use "biraz".

Quoting caliptrix: but "kafam güzel" is not always "i am drunk", is it? |

Caliptrix, it seems that you're turkish, but why do you ask this? 
Have you ever heard any other usage of it? I haven't.

Ah yes, I forget, there's another usage, and it's also used for having taken drugs (eroin, cocain, morphine and so on  )

Let me remind you guys that "Kafam güzel" does not mean "I am drunk".
There is a little difference. "Kafam güzel" means that I am in a state that I am not drunk yet but if I continue to whatever I am doing ( alchool, drug, whatever .. ), even a little more, I will be...
Another slang, with very familiar meaning with "kafam güzel" is "çakır keyif".

Let me visualize it.
Assume that being in Canada = being drunk and being in United States is being normal.
When somebody says that "Kafam güzel", he/she is standing exactly on the border line of USA and Canada. One further step to Canada, he/she will be drunk One step back away from the border line to USA, he/she won't be drunk.
