Title. Obviously youtube is out. Google results have been unhelpful. I tried Pornhub, but no dice. I wanna learn how to shave my twig and berries nice and smooth, because I’m a considerate partner - but I’m tired of trial and error and nicking myself on the nuts.

    This is something I wish I could do since the tactile results are so much better.

    Sadly as a person with sensitive skin and also the dreaded ingrown hair issue I can confidently that if you are like me this is an awful idea.

    Shaving will normally not give you ingrown hairs so long as you shave WITH the grain.

    I only have myself as a sample size so I don’t know how reliable this info is but if you’re unsure of you get ingrowns try shaving your normal areas against the grain and see if you get any. I have shaved my face and even head once before and it didn’t seem to matter where I did it the issue was persistent.

      Yeah, personally I can probably just about dry shave against the grain with a piece of broken glass and splash on some acetone as aftershave and be none the worse for it, not too much in this world irritates my skin.

      I figured it was worth mentioning it because I know it’s a concern for some people, but I’ve never had an issue with it personally with shaving or waxing.
