shaving!

[43BRAVO]

Since I just started shaving, I wanted to know what others feel about it and the way they do it. I know I find it a bit uncomfortable as it starts to grow back and my skin gets very sensitive when I shave again. How long would you wait till you do it again? What methods work best?

I shave down there once every 2 weeks or so and its not too bad by then. I wet it with warm water first. I then use nivea for men sensitive shave gel and the Gillette fusion or mach 3 razor. Afterwards, I put on the nivea for men sensitive after shave balm and that helps my skin a lot.

I shave every couple of days. Sometimes it is bothersome but most times it is not. I shave my balls and trim every where else tight.

Good advice

Thanks runner and nitoc, I know I have a lot to learn

Almost every day...no big deal once its gone, it is much easier to maintain. Probably takes no more than a minute or two to clean up around my pubes and balls. I do my pits every week or two, my ass about the same, although that is more fun with help, so sometimes I wait a bit longer.

I am pretty naturally smooth anyway, so I suppose it would be more of a pain if you had to shave more and larger areas.

I keep my legs shaved too, but for other reasons. Those take a few more minutes to do, so I will do them only once a week or so.

Note that I have been shaving for many years, so really it is just a habit and you get pretty efficient at it after a while.

As for how to...I like to shave in a hot shower, I find it easiest. I just use my regular (face) shave cream. However I find that triple blade Gillette Mach 3 works about the best. Doesn't burn as much as the others and gets the closest shave too.
I find that exfoliating your skin with a pumice stone between shaves helps prevent ingrown hairs if you are susceptible to that.
Also use a skin moisturizer after you shave. Keeps your skin smoother and softer, especially in the dry, winter months.

Thanks gt

I guess I am just really hairy and yes it is fun to have some help. My wife helped me the first time and we used clippers at first. The whole event took more than two hours but was a lot of fun. I did everything from my feet to my navel.

How do you keep from getting "razor burn"?

I hate the itchy feeling and I get all broke out when I shave my pubic area.. my balls and the base of my cock never have any problems.. jsut the rest of the area gets all bumpy and itchy right afterwards...

HELP!!!

If it is really razor burn, here are some tips:

1. Shave in a hot shower or bath to soften the hair.
2. Use a good shaving cream or gel. Never dry shave or only use water.
3. Shave with the hair growth, not against.
4. Never shave when you have an existing razor burn rash. A sharp razor, like you should be using, will cut the tops of the bumps off and it will not heal.
5. Use a product to reduce razor burns like the "bikini zone" gels and creams.

I used to have a real bad ingrown hair issue but have solved that through consistent exfoliation( every day, even on non-shave days and applying roll-on anti-perspirant after shaving.

Good luck

I shave after a nice hot shower and use good razor and gel shaving cream..but as soon as I get out of the shower..I rub on some vitamin E oil..good for the skin...rub it in goos as pores are open more and really absorbs more. Also do it early in the morning...twice a day basically and makes your cock and balls so soft and bump free.

use warm water and soap, it should be fine as long as you use a good razor, not cheap piece of shit

 

[LiFeNdEaTh]

i even twice a day vitamin E lotion...

 

[SilkyDave]

dont use a new razor each time, it is too sharp, try the quatro, take your time, i shave everywhere, well except legs and arms, and have very few problems.....

There must be plenty of guys on here who shave their legs? Or CD's, under their arms? Doesn't matter. Just thought I would mention it. Let's stick to the important bits....

I trim regularly and occasionally go the whole deal. But because I exercise a lot I also sweat, which makes things difficult in that area. At least for me. My thought, now that I need to trim again, is to go outside naked, somewhere quiet, and do it there so the hair leaves no mess. Plus outside naked I know I will get an erection, which will make things easier. I shave the shaft regularly as it slides much more nicely into my wife's mouth...

I wish though I could sort out the sweat rash thing I get through exercise, then I would mow it right down.

I only tried shaving my pubes completely once, and I loved the feeling, but did not like the itchy sensation when my pubes started growing back. Nowadays, I still trim my pubes, but not too short.

I have a question. Is it better to shave or use a depilatory cream for my pubes? I miss the feeling of being smooth down there, but do not relish the thought of enduring the itch when it starts growing back.

I've been shaving for years now, legs, pubes, balls, chest and under arms. I always apply body lotion after I shave and shower daily. Rarely bumps occur but when they do I apply some cortizone creame. After all this time I still get an erection when shaving which just adds to the pleasure. Love the smooth feeling. Enjoy the experience!

 

[george51]

And it does look so good! I bet it tastes good too..

 

[tommix45]

It really does taste good! I've tried it and like it! Thx

I'm sure I would. Just looking gives me a hard-on. Of course it does..

 

[tommix45]

Glad that you enjoyed it!

 

[robbie_boy1]

I shave each day. I wish others would too because I hate going to the dentist for a haircut...lol

baby oil

I shave pretty infrequently, but when I do I love it!!

Hot, steamy shower with too much soap. After I shave while still in the shower, I apply a good amount of hair conditioner. I always massage in an ample amount of baby oil when I am dry after the shower. Wow, do I love the way it feels!!!!

 

[tommix45]

Mmmmmm......sounds good!

 

[fella63]

feels better

Yes, it does sound better, but it feeeeeeeeeels so much better!!

Tommix......great pic!!
