Shaving

[Slim Jimmy]

So i was thinking to maybe shave my crotch, i have been just trimming it but should i shave down there. what is your experience with shaving down there, should i have it, trim it, or leave it natural?

Shaving works great for me. I tend to do it as part of my usual shower, so it doesn't take seconds.

If you over shave (eg press too hard and irritate the skin) it can be uncomfortable, so keep only the lightest pressure on the razor and moisturising can help afterwards. As it grows out it can also be irritating until its more than a few mm long, so its best to just to do little and often. As it grows back the hair can sometimes 'ingrow' and curl back in, but you can usually rub it or lift it out with tweezers once you know how to spot this.

Shaving doesn't work for everyone - I have fairly sparse and light hair, but if you have dense and thick hair growth it may be easier to trim. If you have hairy legs / happy trail trimming can look more natural than shaving imho.

yeah my legs are pretty hairy and my happy trail is coming in nicely so maybe i should trim, idk, anyone else? thanks for you help :)

I tried shaving a few times and I can do it ok but I go through a ton of pain from irritation after. It like literally drives me nuts so I only trim. Btw I have a happy trail and hair legs and my hair is reasonably dark.

Shaving has always worked great for me, only problem I have with it is that it doesn't last very long, I would wax but that would just be too painful, but it is entirely up to you, just remember if you don;t like it will always grow back

I shaved once and didn't really like it. I'd stick to trimming but it will grow back if you give it a go. ;)

You are already trimming - but shave if you want to try it = it will regrow

so back to trim if thats what you prefer.

I shave pits and pubes and prefer it -

Its a matter of choice but shave gel and a disposable razor work great for me

I did try a 4 blade gillette razor but felt it was kinda awkward.

I just run a razor over in the shower

Shave it and see if you like it. Me personally, i like my pubes shaved.

It takes too much effort with too little a reward for me. I personally stick to trimming.

k i just got outta the shower and i did it, it took like 30 min to get everything but it doesnt look that bad, it is really smooth and you can only see little hairs that i missed ( i didnt have my contacts it) but i'll probably get them tomorrow, i left my happy trail there but then it just cuts off, i used some baby oil afterwards so its nice and smooth, idk maybe i'll keep it like this maybe i wont we'll have to wait and see
