Ask Lemmy

Huh I've thought about making one and putting it up on porn hub but figured someone already had.

I've been shaving for decades thought. I use a Harry's razor (way cheaper than "premo" bs brands and works just as well) Don't use shitty disposable razors.

Use a CREAM shaving cream like "Cremo" not the foam crap. In a pinch hair conditioner can work but it's not good either.

If it's your first time trim it as short as you can before shaving. But never use an electric trimmer near and loose skin.

Rinse the blades often build up means they aren't working.

The more times you pass over the same patch of skin the more irritated it will get.

Do not rush.

It's easiest in the shower.

The main way to cut youself will be pressing to hard on the blade. But the way that will always cut you is letting the blade slide sideways. To avoid this alway lift your blade off your skin once done with a stroke or if you have to stop a stroke.

Shave regularly. It's easier to keep it up rather than redo it. I find every other day or every 3rd day works for me. If you put it off more than 5 days you're in regrowth danger zone. It will get itchy and if you scratch it you will end up with a sort of rash from irritation. If that happens it's probably the worst time to shave because your skin will be bumpy. If you do shave it will relieve the irritation but you need to be extra careful.

Also as much as you want to be smoooooth it ain't going to happen. Petting with the grain will be smooth but full prickle removal is basically impossible. I can get mely nuts fairly smooth with much effort and practice but the pubic patch is a no go. Maybe it's just me but the one time I did try to go against the grain in my pubic area it was smooth for a day and then irritated to hell and I ended up with bad ingrown hairs. Not worth it.

This part is main for males everything above applies to anyone I would assume.

Cold water = Shrinkage but can also make shaving easier for someone new. However because your sack is all scrunched up you're much more likely to have a patchy shave.

Warm water = Loose skin. This can make shaving trickier but is easier to get all the areas.

Don't be afraid to stretch that shit out like a paint canvas just make sure you have a firm grip before shaving a stroke.

Anyway hope this helps kinda just info dumped while laying in bed so might forgot something. feel free to ask questions.
