Drop the electric shaver Good quality triple blade razor. In the shower - use hair conditioner, not shaving cream. Rinse the blade LOTS. Stop shaking!!! Be confident! Trying to be too safe and nervous risks the sideways movement and that is what cuts.

Change the blade more frequently than you would for your face. In fact if it is the first time, or been a while, make sure the blade is new and even be prepared to change it about the 3/4 stage. The blade will dull fast if you are mowing a forest.

It also helps if your sack is tightened up, like when you are cold. Most advice says to use warm/hot water for a while, which is great for most other areas of your body, including the area above, but if the sack is cold and tightened up, then there is less loose skin and crevices to negotiate with the razor. It may be a PITA to shave twice separately, but it will be easier to get a smooth sack.

Wait, really? Tightened up?

Because I always thought it was easiest when I was warm and loose and able to stretch the skin out with the fingers of my left while my right guided the razor?

Although I hadn't heard of "Veet", I had tried a product named "BallsBalm" that was pretty good but really needed the skin conditioner after as it gave me a bit of chemical burn.

Ask her to do it.

It isn't any different than any other place where the skin can be both loose or taunt. Treat it like you would if you were 80 and shaving your face. Be careful but smooth long strokes on skin that you have pulled tight. Pre-trim with small grooming scissors if you need to to help with volume. Shaving cream has always worked in the past for me and the twins I am grooming at the time.

However...if you decide to do this, you must commit. Either leave them be with just enough hair to slightly curl as less becomes like a prickly Mohawk against your partners skin. Or shave before every encounter, because aforementioned prickly Mohawk is NOT sexy.

I don't know whether you were joking but lye is not advised for the fairly delicate skin that makes up the Balzac.

That would be like getting it on your labia minora. and letting it sit for 10 minutes.

 

[Essie1]

Can't you just dip them in wax, count to three and....

No?

 

[ColinDoug]

A good razor, confidence and practice.

It is also much easier if you do it regularly and are only shaving of a short growth. I found the skin seemed to get used to it too. Shaving in the shower is fine, and is normally what I do a. I do a bit of both when it comes to stretching - some as is, and other parts I'll stretch it out.

I've found for shower use a woman's razor, designed for that purpose (ie being used in the shower...) is best - a lot easier to hold etc.

Enjoy...and I hope you don't start singing soprano!

eh.. first off.. I've had to remove that athletic cup from sliding shorts just a little too often.. and nothing as delicate as my inner labia could live in such an environment.
second.. hair doesn't even grow on the labia minora!

Well, they're tightened now!

Which is why a woman would THINK that since she found veet tolerable on her labia majora, it MIGHT be ok on the scrotum...it is not.

Be extra careful using electric clippers to trim the bushy bits if you've left it for a while. It's easy to catch the skin and you don't want it jammed up in your tender ball sac skin! It fucking hurts! Take your time. By all means use the clippers to get it down a bit to let you start shaving with a razor, but do keep it away from your skin.

Really? I always thought my sack was more wrinkled when tightened up and it's the wrinkles that suffer the most. :/

ballsbalm! Must give it a try! Thank you! and i agree! it's easier to stretch it and "iron out" the wrinkles when it's loose.

Ask her to do it.

Maybe I should! or would you like to do it for me?

Haha! I shall keep your advice in mind!

Haha! I hope i don't too! But thanks for the ladies razor idea!

Haha! I think veet will probably feel weird and make it feel weird but i shall try!

I shall remember that! And haha damn right it hurts! xD

 

[NotHisLady]

I have to toss this into the conversation, mostly because I think ya'll will get a smile out of it. I read it ages ago and never have been able to forget it. Every time someone says the word Veet, there it is!
It's an Amazon product review of the stuff.

It will burn like a mother trucker, but be my guest.

do read the linked review that NotHisLady posted: Clickety

That is pretty much what my experience was with it, except I actually followed the "test spot' suggestion.

Lye is activated by water. Remember the scene with the kiss on his arm in "fight club?'

And there is a reason tha balls can get "schweddy"

Ehhhh I think he might like it no? http://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?p=56728774#post56728774

Hehe ofcourse I was joking my god did you read the customer feedbacks?
I should maybe have added that to my post but I took for granted he had a few brain cells to rub togethdr

 

[emma_the_librarian]

Maybe I should! or would you like to do it for me?

I've always wanted to. For the inverse, when I had bush, I had a so who loved to shave me. He'd make little hearts and things.

I hadn't browsed his history...yep he should definitely try it. It's like ingesting jalepenos that weren't watered for a couple of weeks...but the next day.

I had forgotten about that now famous feedback. Hilarious.

You know, that's pretty awesome! I am of the mindset that partners do whatever they reasonably can for each other. It's a two way street, not one way, and compromise is always an option. So, when I ask my S.O. for something, it is only something that I'd be willing to accept in return, and conversely, I'm willing to try things for her if she asks.

The problem is, I do not have such a partner . . .

We think the same. If it's something I don't oppose on some internal level, then I try to do it. It's not much for me to give and my partner gives back.
