Von Sander - The Beardmen Whether you’re going for smooth balls or just want to touch up your long pubic hair before a date,you’ve come to the right place. The average British man will not walk into a salon to get his balls waxed. First, it already hurts when you think about it and second, we get a bit uncomfortable when it comes to shaving balls. Fortunately, we are capable of doing this ourselves. But how do you best tackle this?
TIP: Although using a depilatory cream sounds tempting, we advise against it if you want to keep your balls whole. After all, this hurts incredibly bad and you will still end up having to go over them with a razor.
Why shave pubic hair?
There are several reasons why you want to remove pubic hair from your private parts. Primarily, it’s because you naturally want to look well-groomed. A little pubic hair is fine with women, but if they want to see a jungle they will book a plane ticket to the Amazon.
But smooth balls have more benefits than just a groomed look and a better sex life. It’s also good for hygiene. Longer hairs create a flourish, especially in the summer months. You therefore create the perfect environment for bacteria to breed.
Before we start
It is useful to decide whether you want to go for a smooth result or just touch up those long hair. For one, you need a razor, shaver or a body groomer with shaving function. For the other, a trimmer or a body groomer with a trimming function.
Our advice: razor or body groomer
To avoid skin irritations, we recommend using a razor or a body groomer. If you want a smooth result, opt for a razor. But it is important to be careful, especially near your scrotum, a small cut can be made in no time (ouch, really!).
Not everyone is familiar with a body groomer. This device is made to borrow itself perfectly for shaving or touching up body hair. Because it goes over the skin less tightly, you end up with less irritation.
Shaving or trimming pubic hair: step by step
When trimming your pubic hair, you will want to achieve the desired result without getting razor bumps or skin irritations. Following the steps below will help you avoid problems.
TIP: Do you have a lot of pubic hair but want a smooth result? Trim away the longer hair first. This will ultimately make shaving with a blade much easier. Longer hair is difficult to shave.
- Wet the hair: use lukewarm water and/or a little shaving foam. It’s best to shave the private parts during or after showering.
- Shave: Work from top to bottom. Start with the pubic area, then your balls and possibly the side of your dick. Never press the blade too hard on the skin.
- Trim: for trimming, basically follow the same actions as for shaving.
- Rinse: rinse away the loose hair and check carefully if there are any that you can trim or shave away. Rinse again if necessary.
- Pat dry: pat dry with a clean towel.
After shaving, use a good perfume-free body lotion or oil. You’ll find plenty of these in UK online stores and supermarkets. Perfume can cause irritation. In principle, the skin has no problems with natural fragrances, but peppermint is probably less desirable.
To conclude
Good luck with touching up your private parts. And now let’s not make it a taboo subject. Perhaps your friends could use some tips too! Spread the word!
