Trimming...down there...

When I was younger I shaved down there...it was refreshing..but then the next day, I started to get a rash and bumps and all that icky stuff. So, I never tried it again. But lately..I've been thinking..the bottom half was fine, but the top half was itchy...You know how some women shave the bottom and then trim the top? I've been thinking about doing that...but I dont' know the proper way of doing that! So..yeh..if anyone can give me advice to do this, I would appricate it. :)

Thank you

OK here is my take on this


I would do a poodle cut if i was to shave just the lips and above the cleft where the clit is


my husband prefers that I do the brazillain wax thing and so do it.

take two advill before you go make sure your well moisturized from your knees to your belly button at least two weeks in advance twice a day (with exfoliation) and you should be fine. here in baltimore it's about 50 dollars for a wax but it lasts about 4 weeks.

Actually I shave all of it down there, to prevent the rash I put roll on deodorant on the skin.... Hey I heard it on the radio, and it actually worked....:cool:

if you really want to shave it all i heard using hair conditioner instead of shave cream works well and it did when i shaved.

Yup, it's true - it's more moisturizing. And if you can get your hands on Bumble and Bumble's Super Rich conditioner, it's the best to shave with! :D

Waxing is always great. But if you don't like the pain or don't want to deal with waiting for the hair to grow long enough, I have a little trick. I get bumps when I use a razor too, so I use trimmers, like for a man's hair line or beard. Don't use a guard . . . it gets really close - not as close as a razor, but close enough for day-to-day and I don't get any bumps. And you can do it everyday if you need to. AND you can do it right over your toilet, no water, no soap, just shave. I am really fair, so my hair is pretty light, but I turned my best friend on to it who is mexican with dark, course hair and she loves it too.

Shave ladies- shave:D

I have been shaving down there for about 5 years now and I love it! I couldnt imagine there being hair there!:eek:

I just use women's shaving cream because the men's kind burns! Other than that I have never had a problem with rashes and itching. I do use a Venus razor though...dont know of it makes a difference.

See, now.. I had the OPs issue and for many years was like... screw that!

But, I got one of those handy dandy Bikini Touch trimmers. Works PERFECT. It completely shaves the ~ ah ~ lip area to smooth byebye happiness and even has a little adaptable "trimmer" if ya wanna leave a landing strip above the clit. You can also make shapes. :eek: Funfun. I ONLY shave the actual bikini line. No way a razor is going near my delicate girl skin. Hell no oh no. And all bare, to me, just seems frighteningly pedophilic. I mean, I'm a WOMAN. I EARNED that... no way is it all going away for anybody. :p

And all that works fine for me. A Bikini Touch is about $15... and it takes maybe 5 - 10 minutes before a shower once or twice a week to keep it nice.

And Yep, for the shaved area, definitely use deoderant. No more bumplies or rashies.

No worry about a pedophelic ah.......:eek:

You gots mountains girl:D :D :D

:rolleyes:

And all bare, to me, just seems frighteningly pedophilic. I mean, I'm a WOMAN.

Amen woman! I feel the same way - I tried it once and I thought it was a little perverted. But that's just me - to each her own! ;)

What is the bikin touch trimmer? Is it basically just a trimmer like the one I use? But maybe smaller?

As Seen On TV:

You can get it at Wal-Mart :eek: or online... The Bikini Touch Trimmer. Good thing, yipyip. If you get it online, comes with a ton of accessories and extra heads, so prolly a better deal to purchase online.

Salt!! I need to copy my "fainting" smilie somewhere. :D on the ~ LOL

I may have mountains up there, but like my stretch marks (badges of honor), my wee bit of well trimmed shrubbery was a gift of womanhood I honor and care for respectfully. ;) At least its not a wild forest. LOL

~phos

I use the Venus razor too...and soap.

I prefer good ole Dove bar soap...works well...no real razor problems...

and I've been shaving for years now...I love the way it feels. Doesn't feel pediphilic (sp?) to me...cuz I do it for me...and I've always just done it for me.

Plus with my skin the way it is...it's much more comfortable.

I have to shave everyday though...otherwise I get yucky stubble. Gross.

Nadine.

I'll try that shaver thing sometime...and maybe the roll on deoderent if I can't afford the shaver..but if the anyone else has a method, don't hesitate to tell. :D

trust me an old 45 year old coochie does not look anything like a young 4 yr old coochie neeky or NOT


after you have children and you age... your color changes... when i'm waxed WAXED I tell you i look bruised.... it's just the skin color changes...


don't look anything like a kid above or below


my humps
my humps
my lovely lady lumps...

I have been shaving myself bare as a 5 year old since I was about 15. Having hair down there just ITCHES and drives me NUTS!!!!
Shane hates it! At least I think he does. He made a comment once that I "really didn't need to do that", but I told him that if I don't I'm itchy and uncomfortable (and my twat really doesn't need to look like Little Orphan Annie!) and he never said anything else. So I don't know.

I use the Venus Divine and my ordinary bodywash (Moonlight something or other from the Body Shop) afterwards I use Bikini something to prevent bumpies.

well being the explorer that I am, I would prefer to be like dr. livingston: deep in the bush and loking for new adventures:p But then again having a goal in sight makes one get to the finish line that must faster....

Ouch ouch ouch! I could never get waxed down there...that sounds painful...the only thing I wax is my eyebrows and that's all I'm gonna wax.

waxing my eyebrows hurts worse unless I'm very DRY (skin wise)... i have to exfoliate and moisturize HEAVILY for about two weeks before a waxing.

You got balls muchacho. I prefer not to put sharp instruments down there.

Shaved balls get more attention honey...

Why yes they do. :eek:
~phos

Eh, what can I say. I'm stubbornly old fashioned.

Well, you could always try the bikini trimmer, too. ;) If *I* can do it, so can you. :D LOL. I'd never do a razor on the sensitive area.. no way. NO HOW.

~phos

I love shaved balls....did I just say that?:eek:
looks like it

I really want to go to Wal-Mart now....

Shaved balls are the best!

Makes guys look bigger...and makes it much more pleasant to be down there! *grin*

Nadine.

But I rather like the hairy sasquatch look I got going............

EWWWWWWWWW!!!!! :D

Nadine.

Hahah I love this place!!!

I shave with an electric razor...everything. It's just comfortable.

I've never seen a guy shaven! Do guys typically shave the whole genital region or just the walnuts? I like semi-hairy men..mmmm the mild chest hair, hairy arm pits, hairy legs, and I kinda like them having hair down south. It's manly. Yummy!

I like it trimmed but not bald and I like the same thing on guys. My guy keeps it really nice and short which is great. And yep, I've got one of bikini trimmer thingies and it works great.

When we were experimenting with Alec...we shaved the whole area....which was pretty nice until it started growing back.

Then I had to listen to him bitch and moan about how it itches. LOL...welcome to my world.

I like it nice and trim down there with him though. Makes things nice and pleasant. *grin*

Besides...i hate getting hairs in my mouth!!!

Nadine.

OK WHILE WOMEN as they age, turn a darker color in the genital region. (after child birth esp)... MEN do not. therefore once past a certain age, no matter how you shave it, wax it, or trim it WOMEN's genitals will not look like a young girl.


I like shaved balls. I prefer the rest of the pubic hair trimmed but visible....because otherwise it just looks too childlike for me.

[...]

Okay, I have had some amazinly BAD experience shaving. I went and got the bikini trimmer. SUCKS. Sorry, Phos. I hate it. Not nearly as close of a shave as I like.

Anyways. I use the Gillette Mac3 razors and I have terrible sensitive skin and the deoderant does work. But, I found another cream that works WONDERS, although it does sting a bit right after a shave. Worth it though. The product is NeoStrata 10% glycolic acid. No bumps, not red rashy ugliness and best of all...no yucky ingrowns.


As for you men..........PLEASE DON'T SHAVE. Gross. Yucky, feminine. I don't like it. Some of the ladies here will not agree but, for me? NO!!

The new Gillette Fusion POWER razor(5 blades) works wonders...but get the power.

I'm on your side too, Poll....

I want a man....not a pubescent boy.....

i don't like my men nude... i like the balls shaved if they want extra special attention but don't shave the rest....

No, no, no! :D

I'm not saying you're wrong because, of course, that's your preference....but I love hair....God, that sounded weird....but I love to touch it....stroke it....hairy arms, hairy chest, hairy.....well, you get my point....:D :p ;)

I think I need a cold shower and a nap..... :D

Somebody just shoot me now, would ya? :o :D

Yes, Yes I bet their wonderful!! Wanna know the price tag on those here? 30 +tax for razors!!! That is why I not have that one:mad: But I bet they are great.

Okay, now onto the shaved men part. I wanted to add that all a man could really do for me down there is a little black barber comb.:D Give that a lil' combin' and we're good to go. No strays to worry about kwim?

I like the "prick" but not the pricklies:eek:

~Jenna

do you like it in your mouth and down your throat?



lol

:eek: NESSA!!! GROSS!! Just the thought made me cough;) Lil' black comb,lil black comb.

~Jenna

:eek: NESSA!!! GROSS!! Just the thought made me cough;) Lil' black comb,lil black comb.

~Jenna

exactly

hence the need to shave the boys....cause most men love to have them umm... orally stimulated.

Okay, now I thought for sure I have been around a few blocks and none of those blocks involved excessivly hairy balls. I mean a few stray hairs on the boys themselves but.........not enough to shave and they are finer than the pubic hairs and don't get caught;) As for the up top hair? Just comb them out and then you don't get any fall offs. KWIM?

I can't help this thought, but what happens if the boys develope an ingrown? My god, I don't even have balls but I think mine just sucked up at the thought of an ingrown.:eek:

I just can't imagine taking a razor to that thin skin. Yikes!! One wrong move and the game it OVER!!!

~Jenna

[QUOTE=Polarity]Yes, Yes I bet their wonderful!! Wanna know the price tag on those here? 30 +tax for razors!!! That is why I not have that one:mad:

They are less $$ here then the mach3 razors. Mach 3 are about $20...the fusion is about $13.

For 5 mach3's it is 18 + tax. The others are 30+tax. Dammit. And you have to have them unlocked or there is a doorbell on the shelf that beeps everytime you open to let staff know you are in there. Ridiculous eh?

~Jenna

do you like it in your mouth and down your throat?



lol

Actually, I'm very careful....gentle....tender....and if it does happen....oh well....:D

Honestly, my own hair in my face and getting tangled where it shouldn't is much more of an annoyance.... :p ;)

well you know most girls have hair long before 12 you have hair BEFORE You start your period. My 13 year old thinks shaving is gross and I don't know many YOUNG girls who are able to shave their armpits or legs much less their pubic hair.

i'm a waxer but it never would have occured to me at 12. unless I was involved with a PEDOPHILE and he encouraged it.

So true Nessa. I can't imagine a 12 year old shaving down there :eek: I doubt it even crossed my mind until I was maybe 16 or 17 at the EARLIEST. God, I remember all the cuts I'd give myself on my legs alone.....

Yeah...I didn't shave my legs till I was in 9th grade...I was a lazy bum. I didn't want to start till I absolutely HAD to! :D

As for shaving down there...I didn't start that till I was probably 18 or 19. Gosh...I can't even remember what it looks like with hair down there! :D

Nadine.

I started trimming and then shaving down there at the prompting of an older bf who made the suggestion. He then proceeded to do it for me and I gotta tell ya........that was a very sexy experience:D

~Jenna

I've shaved for 3 years now and I love it too. It's not too much of a pain to keep up with, now it's become routine. I do keep a bottle of vitamin E oil in the shower which helps and NEVER use a dull razor! I didn't sit right for days lol!

My gf is the first woman I've been with who shaves. I love it! It's such a turn on to me when she tells me she's freshly shaved because that's her preparation for love-making. She doesn't have the problems some of you mention.

do you really think she would discuss this with you? "oh honey I've got an ingrown hair....." "oh sweetie my coochie is so itchy cause i shaved the other day"


does your wife go natural?

been shaving for years, over 20 with only short times in between.The itchy should go away after a short period of time.Dont try to shave to often. I use only soap.

Yeah, for me after shaving for a couple of months the itching went away. Either that or I just got so used to it it didnt bother me anymore.

What a funny thread. Yeah, I started shaving before I had sex. I think it's because I was curious and when I had sex with my boyfriend, he wasn't like "Ooo, I like it" or "Oh, I don't like it." I don't shave everyday, but only when I feel like it. Haha.

I later found out that my boyfriend does like it all clean, but in general. I don't think he'd be totally turned off if I had "some" hair. He thinks it's hot. I guess he likes seeing what's going on.

Though I have been tempted to tell him to maybe "trim" around the area. But it's such a sensitive thing to bring up, you know? I don't know if he has ever trimmed, but it wouldn't hurt.

umm you're sleeping with him and you feel funny about discussing his pubic hair???

Oh you know, people can feel kinda sensitive about their physical appearance, especially if it's their genital area! It doesn't really bug me right now since we haven't slept together in a long long time! But I think I will at some point bring it up.

Nessa,
You're right--she probably wouldn't say anything. I assumed since she's been shaving for years that she didn't. I stand corrected in making assumptions. My wife doesn't shave. Why do you ask?

well if you like it why not say "hey hon my girl friend shaves why don't you try it....cause i like it"

I have tried to trim... it is not easy... a good barbars type electric with appropriate attachment for trimming to length might work.... I have even tried fully shaved but that needs keeping up with it. Also, shaving 'all down there' keeps the underwear much cleaner:eek::D bwahahahahahah

So I find that I shave about 3 times a year...

Sparring with Nessa takes fortitude! But, to bring this to an end: I grant you that my immorality is somehow worse than your immorality. Any defense is ultimately insufficient; I have my (not good enough) reasons for accepting the love of another person.

you don't accept it your part and parcel of it.

but instead you choose to cheat and lie....
