Shaving the body

Shaving can be used all over the body but care should be taken not to cause any cuts on sensitive areas! Shaving gives a very smooth clean look and there are many good shave creams and products to help moisturise your skin during the shaving process. The downside with shaving is that the hair removal is very temporary (usually a few days) as it only cuts the hair on the surface.

Clipping & trimming

Clippers are for trimming the hair and can be used on any part of the body. An advantage of this method is that clippers are relatively inexpensive and can be reused. This method is useful if you are prone to skin irritations and want to avoid risks. Good hair clippers can also be used for pre-cutting the hair to a shorter length, making it much easier to shave afterwards.

Plucking smaller hair areas

Manscaping the body

It can be effective as when plucking, you are essentially pulling the hairs from the route, although this is not really feasible for larger hair areas. When using tweezers, make sure they are clean and sterile.

Hair inhibitors

An alternative to hair removal is by simply bleaching the hair to make it less noticeable. To prevent your hair turning orange, make sure you follow the instructions and allow the bleach to work properly! Another way of treating the hair is by using hair inhibitors such as laser or electrolysis, which prevents hair from re-growing rather than removal. Inhibitors can prevent the regrowth of hair for a temporary period, or in some cases permanently.




Whatever solution you choose, please make sure that you do make sure that you do follow the recommended guidelines – as there have been well-documented cases of painful genital experiences where people used products not meant for those areas!
