    i just started shaving and had red bumps for a while.  I started using Gillette body gel.    That stuff is amazing.   the razor really glides well over all of the curved parts.  i do shave slowly, and rinse often.  i also rub the gel in allot.   that creates a a different issue. the more i rub the bigger the issue becomes ..   but i have no ingrown hairs at all.  I also changed razors to the hydro 5 sensitive.    that combo seems to really work good for me .   I am 19 and used to only trim close.   now I am silky smooth and LOVE IT .....

    I have found the problem is definitely lessened by using a 4 or 5 blade razor, not a twin blade.  And don't try to make the blade last forever -- change it often.

    [quote]Does anyone use Nair or Veet?  That's what I use once every two weeks and I stay very smooth.  Btw, I think I'm the only smoothie in Atlanta sometimes.  I've gone to many men's nudist events and I'm always the loner.  Nice to know there are other smoothies out there. [/quote]

    After only a short time of having started to shave I nicked myself at the base of my pubic hair line which was neatly trimmed and very quickly developed a big brown mole. My doctor is reluctant to remove it but I find it ugly and have let my pubes grow again to mask it. Very frustrating!

    Just a warning really on how things can go wrong.

    Not so sure i buy into the arcticle.  If our bodies were that sensitive to diseases then we shouldn't shave around our face either because the beard and mustache  would prevent things entering our nose and mouth.  With the amount of people who shave their pubic area... There would be an epidemic out there.

    Has anyone used Veet or any other hair removal cream?  Works like a charm and you never ever get red bumps.

    I did use VEET, it was good but I got horrible in grown hairs on my pubic area and it didn't do much on my scrotum.

    I use Veet and love the smooth results.  Never any rash and it lasts for days.

    i am completely smooth and use a disposable razor with liquid soap in the shower but i dry shave my balls as it gets a smoother shave and only a few times have had a nick.

    I've used to get waxed fairly regularly but stopped just because of cost.  It was a smoother finish, I must admit - almost erotic, if I can say that.

    Perhaps if we all had unlimited funds, those who prefer the smooth would opt for laser hair removal.  I've had my back done with great results.  I did my balls, shaft and perineum for one treatment and didn't notice any difference.  I know it takes up to 6 to do any lasting results but at this point I've opted not to continue.  I do like the dry shave on my balls as I agree it gives a closer shave.

    I did 6 laser sessions on my pubic region and butt crack.  There's less hair there but not smooth as I wanted.  Unfortunately, with age comes gray hair and the laser won't get those so guess what, that's what's left and that's what I shave.

    Like in other part of your body. It takes daily shaving and conditioning with a sharp quality razor and shave gel. There is no substitute. Even a the best conditions you may still have an occasional ingrown.

    I use scissors (carefully!) and give a light trim every few months just to keep it tidier.  My personal view is being shaved down just is not natural and the hair must be there for a purpose.  I'm clean shaven on my face and visit the barbers for a trim and tidy even 4 to 6 weeks; it may be natural just to let it all grow but it would be impossible to look after.

    I've been trimming my cock and balls for a long time but I think I'm just gonna go to a wax bar to get it done once in a while.Too many cuts.

If you were trimming your cock and balls for a long time by now you would be neutered.

    I shave my pubes clean , best way to avoid ingrown hair is to keep shaved skin moisturized

    I used an IPL to get rid of my pubic (& other body) hair permanently, and now a quick shave in the shower once a week keeps me 100% smooth with no ingrown hairs. :-))

    I got waxed last Sunday. A bit painful being my first time. I will be getting waxed monthly as I don't have the "balls" to do it myself. I have been told that if you get it done monthly the hairs are finer making it less painful. I will see in 3 weeks. After having a forrest down there, it is really nice smooth.
