How do you shave your balls? Every time I've tried with my trimmer it pinches and tears my sack and I'm too traumatized to try it again unless there's a full proof bloodless method. Usually I just pluck as many as I can tolerate while I'm sitting around watching YouTube or somethin. But it's such a pain (literally). Pic unrelated
You're viewing a single thread.
You have a few options but there is no perfect solution, all have trade-offs.
-
Trimmer with skin safe guard. That's your trimmer but with a bit of plastic to stop nicking the skin. Doesn't trim that close, takes a long time and generally not the best result, but better than nothing and pretty safe. That's basically what manscaped sell, but don't buy it, it's overpriced.
-
A Good Razor. Basically just use a good cartridge razor of whatever brand you like (but not the disposable single use ones, they are hell, I usually use Gillette Fusion) some even have special intimate razor lines that are allegedly better but I didn't see much difference. This is probably best for the clean shave, does take some agility and practice to do safely but is quick and easy when you get used to it. Bigger con of this approach is it will get a bit tender and prickly after a few days, but that also depends on your hair type. Usually this is my go to.
-
Hair Removal Cream. Good for reaching spots that are otherwise hard to shave and lasts a bit longer than a razor but also has a few negatives. First of all, it STINKS, might no be an issue but worth noting. Additionally, it might not be suitable for you as it literally dissolves hair, so is pretty rough on the skin and can even cause a chemical burn if left for too long. There are intimate area variations but obviously they are less effective. Also depending how hairy your legs are, it can be tricky to not get any on there and be left with clumps of half dissolved hair on your hamstrings. I used Nads before and had good results.
-
Laser hair removal. Best in class, but is expensive, requires multiple visits and top ups (but the hair stays off longer and grows back thinner after each time). Haven't tried myself but know a few folks who swear by it. I think you can get a home kit but I wouldn't advise it as it's fairly dangerous and you don't want a laser burn down there, still with professional services.
-
Wax. Better results than the first two options but the pain is unreal, not worth it IMO.
Don't forget epilators! (For legs etc.). Also have the pain issue, but it does reduce after a few goes at it
Oh dear. I don't even own testicles but I've used an epilator and I don't see that being a good time. The skin is so stretchy there.
Oh yeah, and the hairs have a lot deeper roots. More for the general discussion of leg hair etc.
I used to shave, you can do it often and avoid regrowth hell. Recently I started getting waxed, shaft, balls, butt. Really worth it, smooth for weeks, I love it, women love it.
Yes it's painful at the time but not so much that you are tender walking to your car afterwards, it's a stinging pain and then it's done.
Plus you get the fun of trying to have a normal conversation about upcoming holidays with a woman who is pouring hot wax on your junk, an experience I would recommend to anyone who hates small talk.
I don't have nuts so I don't really have a say in this but you could never get me to put Nair in the more sensitive parts of my genitalia. Ball skin is so thin and sensitive, I can't imagine that burn.
