I like smooth but everytime I try with razer or clippers I cut myself. I use hair removal creams but when it starts to grow back very scratchy n itchy. I scared to get wax. Anyone have any suggestions?

If you like being smooth, I mean really smooth than get them waxed. Did mine for the first time a month ago and couldn't be happier. It's not as painful as you might think and not as painful in the areas you might think. The pubes above my penis was the most painful while the anus and taint was probably the least painful. And the amount of pubes that came back is probably a 3rd less than I had. Am do to go back in a week or so.

The waxing is great. Not having to shave all the time is a big plus and it really is a lot smoother than shaving for a good month. Only drawback is you have to let it grow out so much before getting waxed again. But still worth it in my opinion.

Amen, Andy! Started getting waxed last summer and look forward to every appt. I am 4 weeks out now and already made an appt for 2 weeks hence at the 6 week point. I originally started shaving because my wife liked the look but now love the feeling and don't plan to ever be hairy again.

I also use a Norelco bodygroomer that my late wife had for maybe 45 years. I recently found it when going through some of her things. I remember her using it years ago and forgot about it. I don't shave my pubes, but everything else is shaved with this little razor and it works great.

Silversurfer,

The upside is that the hair does have to be allowed to grow back to a length that the wax can grip but that hair becomes really fine after a few sessions and to tell you the truth, I still felt pretty smooth and looked smooth even with the hair at acceptable length to wax again. There were several times where the hair was patchy enough that I lasted 8 weeks a few times because I could actually tweeze those very small patches and be completely smooth.

I figure I'll have to kinda start over again since I've not been back for a wax session in over a year!

AndyDi,

The hair is definitely a lot thinner and not much there yet. Still looks and feels smooth like you said. Probably can make another week or so easy.

do try waxing.... its not as bad as you imagine!but be prepared to pay good price for experienced therapist, who can minimize pain by major factor.i find hot wax better than cold but everyone different.i usually find female therapists more gentle than male. they seen everything before so no shyness needed!

I had a woman do my male brazillian and she did a wonderful job. explained everything and worked her way around to different areas to let the last one cool down. Even putting pressure on certain areas to help with the pain which wasn't much. Had me lay on my back and spread my knees to the sides while putting soles of my feet together. Was a piece of cake. She's the only one that does men for that company. I think it is a $65 charge but I bought a package deal of 3 for $125. Well worth it in my opinion.

Years ago I tried waxing myself. I didnt do a full wax on myself but I waxed some of the area. Though I liked the feel after and how long it took to grow back, I didnt like having to wait for it to be long enough so that I could wax it again. Shaving is easier and I dont have to wait as long.

I tried waxing myself but did not have good results and drew blood doing it. The woman at the wax strip did a great job and no blood. It's been a month and some hairs are showing up ( a lot less than I had) but still feels really smooth. Will probably go back n a bout a week or so and have it done again. Anxious to see how long that will last.

I like being smooth however, I can only do around things down there then trim as close as I can on everything else I'm allways afraid I'll nick something but this trimmer you are talking about sounds like what I need are they very exspensive.
