Best way to remove hair "down there" (men)

I rather like the feel of a naked scrotum, but shaving is a hassle and if I don’t do it every couple of days it starts to itch coming back in. How well do depilatory creams work and how often do they have to be reused?

Also, drifting a bit, say, an inch to the rear, what’s the best way to keep hair away from the exhaust port? Can I use Nair there, too? I find it much easier to keep it clean if I keep the hair there to a minimum (and why does so frickin much of it have to grow THERE?).

Thanks,

Someone’s got to know something about this topic!

You took Dr. Evil to heart, eh? :D:D:D

A kinky girlfriend once uncovered me. It was quite a feeling, but the @!#?@! itching when the hair returned wasn’t worth it.

Female models surely used something other than shaving or electrolysis. Nair should work there, but just expect some irritation. Over time, the skin will grow acustomed to it. Just avoid the actual “exhaust port”; irritating that irritates the whole body. :smiley:

Straight razor. Provides you with the pleasure of a naked scrotum and the thrill of a lifetime. Especially if you let someone else do it for you. :smiley:

This thread here has everything you never wanted to know about nut shaving, and this here column is all about shaving in general.

I have not read the linked thread and I don’t have any experience whatsoever with depilatory creams, but I have a strong feeling that using Nair on your privates would be a MOST UNPLEASANT experience.

Otherwise, why would anyone go through the apparent torture that is bikini waxing? (Grown-up) Kids, DON’T try this at home!

it is futile, once you start the war will never end…

I wouldn’t use Nair there. When I see how it hurts my legs! I couldn’t imagine it anywhere else!

Yes, the regrowth is irritating the first time. Once you make the shaving a regular practice, however, it gets to be less and less of an irritation as you get used to it; the period of time you spend itching gets shorter and shorter, and more tolerable.

The only razor that has any business being allowed anywhere near your jewels is the Mach III. Shun cheap razors at all costs. Better to be fully haired than to harm yourself with a cheapo.

I am thinking of exploring the Middle Eastern substitute for waxing, which is basically sugar and lemon juice and is self-applied at home. (I have not been to any Brazilian Wax salons to ask whether they do men, but I bet they would give me a dirty look if I did.) Modern updated versions of this recipe include aloe vera for soothing the skin. Moom is one such commercial preparation. It’s also a palindrome. However, I imagine it would work well only for the upper pubic hair region, a relatively flat expanse of skin. I suspect it might not be so useful for scrotal application. So I’m not throwing away my Mach III just yet.

I’ll let you know how the Moom works once I try it.

A Real Man uses his belt sander to solve problems like this !

I don’t mean to encourage hijacking but I’d love a few pointers on less-radical pubic grooming.

The wildness of my little plot gets me down a bit whenever I notice it. Poorly-defined boundaries seem a bit sloppy to me, and I’ve got a “treasure trail” an inch-and-half wide that goes a bit past my navel and I suspect might prove daunting to even the best-equipped treasure seekers. Wigs me out because I’m far-from hirsute everywhere else. Is it weird to wanna shave that puppy right off? Cut it back a bit?

** Jomo Mojo**, is it a coincidence that you know so much about nether-region shaving, and that you list your locations as “Nutopia”?

Excuse the hijack, folks…
“Nutopia” was a concept introduced by John and Yoko on the album Mind Games (1973). I know not of this nether-region shaving allusion of which you speak. Unless you were thinking of another Plastic Ono Band album, “Shaved Fish”?!?!?!

The skin of the scrotum is very thin (no fatty tissue deposit). That’s why the ol’ Ben-Gay in the jock strap routine is so painful (and funny). The skin there (and on the penis and the hole of the urethra) aborb chemicals easily. Pain receptors are quite sensitive. Therefore, Nairing and other chemical depillatories should be avoided.

  1. Trim outside the shower with an electric beard or hair clippers that have length settings. This gets the treasure trail, the pubic hairs, and other ‘manscaping’ done right (especially keep nipple hairs very short, and don’t let underarm hair get ridiculously long). Do it dry over a towel. Shake out the towel into the garbage, your garden, or out the third story window of your city apartment while singing “It’s Raining Men.” Trim the scrotum to very short in prep for shaving.

  2. Shave in the shower. Unless your hair down there is especially bristley, you won’t need to shave every day, although, that’s ideal. Like your facial skin when you first started shaving, your scrotal skin will have to get used to the regular shaving. Once it does, it’ll be no problem to maintain.

  3. Lubricate. Yeah, this sounds like the Steve Martin skit on Saturday Night Live when he was selling ‘penis creme’ (“rub it on… for hours at a time!”); but just like your facial skin sometimes needs moisturizing, so does the nut sack. This helps reduce the itchiness (even without shaving, it gets itchy). Use something that won’t taste bad (petroleum jelly works just fine).

Oh, if you’re in your mid teens and reading this… change your underwear every single day, even if you don’t think it needs it.

Peace.

Shave and a hair cut, two licks.

Panasonic wet/dry electric shaver. My sister and her boyfriend gave it to my one Xmas to encourage my to lose my beard. The facial hair is still there, but until the shaver died, it kept my lower areas hair free. My hand/eye coordination is so bad I could do harm to myself with a Mach3.

Once you start, keep it up. Stubble feels very bad.
