Further to all of this, I was in the bath last night shaving all the bristles off which I have been doing regularly for a couple of years now and I had a shaving "etiquette" dilemma.
Just how far up do you shave?

well as much as i'm not into the full shaven look down there the fact is if you do shave u have to shave everywhere really cause shaven pubes followed by a hairy belly and chest is just wrong lol

If you will shave your nether redface

You must never, never ever
Use a cut-throat razor near your manly tease :shock:
But, if you do, whenever,
Then avoid a major sever
And please don't use it if you want to sneeze! mad

well i dont shave myself after having to once for an opperation yeah it was fine for a while but as soon as the hair started to grow back redface

i think everybody thought i had crabs surprised

ops: :oops: how do you stop the itching???
so for me its a grade two with the clippers everything nice & neat & no itch smile

:)
p.s Mac69 there is nothing wrong with the cut throat razor i still use one when i want a really close shave or ran out of bic's :) yes im one of those who cant afford the mach3 or too tight is prob more to the point biggrin

I shaved mine on new years day and for the next week or so it itched like crazy, was really uncomfortable, but if you use a moisturiser you should be ok, just keep mine nicely trimmed now (saves the scratching)!!

7 Feb 2006

I shave or trim fairly frequently. Also I don't wear underpants, so there's less snagging and abrasion.

7 Feb 2006

did it once........never again!!.....a slight trim and tidy up but never the full works again!!

I use hair clippers to take most off (sometimes leaving some of the frontal area, or doing a 'blend') but then use Immac for the shaft, balls and crack. I wouldn't trust myself with an open razor near those bits.
Guys, if you shave (or Immac) your balls and shaft but leave the crack of your backside, try bending down and taking a look in the mirror from between your legs.
A hairy anus can be a tad gross! Even if you don't plan to 'use' it, what's the harm in looking your best . . . ?

Gillette mach 3 with Lush razorantium in a hot shower is great for the face ( and yes as has been posted before moisturise ) but for absolute perfect smooth (mmm pause to ponder........) nethers then Veet sensitive applied by a playmate is the best !
Curiously enough mine were just redone on saturday and 10 mins before got a text from hreself " no cream left - get some !" so duly went into chemist and obtained the aforesaid tube, whats on the counter as im paying - local gardeners cards " tidy lawns & trimmed hedges " even the asistant saw the funny side !
Enjoy it and dont even think of silk boxers...... damn to late !

Only had to do this once in preperation for a scalpleless vasectomy (Managed to shave the wrong bit!! but that's another story ) ) just wondered if any guys on the forum do this regularly as I want to give it a shot , was talking to my ex wife about it and she suggested immac (other depilatory methods are available) but as this is quite a sensitive area any advice from the SH boys and Girls would be much appreciated.
My inspiration was the line in one of the Austin powers movies "have you ever seen a perfectly shaved scrotum??....Quite breathtaking!"

Well, shaving is fine if you must have zero pubes, itself a great idea! Personally I find a beard trimmer is best, less hassle, give everything a good short trim, and I mean VERY short lol, once a week and there you go.

Yep shaved is best for me I have to say
Gillette 3 blade disposable razor with "prince" cream form Lush as the lubricant - works every time - "meat and two veg" washed and clean !!!!!

don't forget once you shave once you have to shave regularly, or your best boxers will wear thin on sharp bristles, and whatever partner your sleeping with will complain constantly about your prickly balls sticking in her :lol:
He says speaking from experience..

it's an interesting sensation ain't it? watching the soft sensitive skin of your inner thigh turn red raw as it's abraded away by the sand paper like texture of your bollox!
playing pocket pool all day long scratching the damn things just makes you look a right wanker too!
it's a toss up between mach 3s and veet. the razor needs a very steady hand, which is tricky if you're nervous. veet just makes yer plums glow in the dark, but they come in handy if it's a cold day and you need summat to warm yer hands up! !

I find using a bit of hair conditioner on the area first softens it up a treat......allowing for easier shaving!

14 Feb 2006

Well if your using the razors take your time on your balls, i was preparing for a meet and was running late, so i was rushing to shave my balls when firstly the pain hit me i looked down to see the trickle of blood running down my leg :shock: lucky it was only a nick
mind you it didnt spoil the fun :twisted: :twisted:
i never fully shave and am now a dab hand with the clippers lol

14 Feb 2006

I seem to remember seeing somewhere that shaving was popular in Roman times. As Gillette and Veet were still a long way off, it makes you wonder how they managed it without lots of blood trickling away!

14 Feb 2006

whats wrong with a guy having body hair? it puzzles me why grown men want to make their tackle look like it did when they were pre pubescent. yeah some blokes could do with a trim to keep it neat but i agree with naughtynymphos, the plucked chicken look is unappealing.
its a funny trend that men are being encouraged to revert to being boys.......

sorry to butt in but shaven men is just wrong
the last chicken in the shop look does nothing for me at all :lol:
shaven balls and trimmed is good tho :thumbup:

Well....... yes, it may be wrong, but it's clean AND ....... it makes it look bigger !
A definate bonus (not for me obviously - I don't want it to look 'too' big - LOL)

If you get the chance have a shave in a sauna. Guaranteed to be dead smooth.

14 Feb 2006

A shave can be easily effected following carefulsnipping away at the long hairs then a daily shave with my Braun electric works for me! (Still need to do it with care though...!)

16 Feb 2006

Gilette Mach 3 every time (balls only, rest trimmed right back).
First time it itches like hell but it gets easier everytime you do it.
BTW Dont use aftershave unless youre REALLY brave lol! lol

16 Feb 2006

All this reminds me of a mate of mine who when Immac first came out, or at least when we first found it in the shops he tried it on his face!! Well he was 10stone wet through but looked more like 20 when the swelling took full effect... No way would I put that anywhere near my bits after that lol....
Mind you could be a benifit if acurate enough!!!

Wish I'd never read this post now, I always shave my sack and cock and keep the rest trimmed well down, yesterday went to Asda and bought some sensitive Veet, today I am sat here wondering just how long it will take before the burning pain on my cock goes down and the redness disappears !! I'll be sticking to the old and trusted shaving gel (sensitive of course) and Wilkinson Sword Quattro (upgraded from a Mach3 last year)
Does someone want to come and kiss it better wink
