Today's Top Hair Removal Options  

Let's face it, few people enjoy dealing with unwanted hair. The hassles involved in its removal can be many, and the thought of leaving it in place just won't do for the appearance conscious. The problem is there are many options for removing unwanted hair. Choosing the right one for you is a matter of personal preference.

Whether it's removal of unwanted facial hair, the bikini area, the back or beyond, the main choices for removal include such things as shaving, depilatories, waxing and laser treatments. Each method comes with its own plusses and minuses.

Shaving is the most commonly used form of hair removal. In this process, a person simply uses a razor and some form of lubricant to make the razor work more efficiently. This method is great for those who don't want to deal with the other options. It's quick, cheap and does get the job done. The problem with it is the fact it can be painful - especially if the razor slips - and it must be repeated frequently. Although a good option for many, shaving just isn't for everyone.

Depilatories are creams that essentially remove unwanted hair. They can be lathered on and then wiped off, taking the hair with them. This is a cheap method that avoids the pain of a slipped razor, but again, it's not the right method for everyone's needs. These creams can be harsh and they can sometimes fall where they don't belong. Not the most precise method, depilatories are good for large areas, such as the legs, but awful for the bikini line and not much fun to use on a lip. Hair removal done in this manner requires frequent touch ups, but not necessarily as many as shaving alone.

Waxing is a favorite choice for many seeking to remove excess hair. Although a bit high in the "ouch factor," this method works for keeping hair off for a while. During a waxing, the area to be treated is cleaned and conditioned and then wax is applied. Long strips of cotton or other such material are applied over the wax. When the wax dries, the hair is removed by ripping the strips off. Those who swear by waxing say this process leaves skin baby soft. Those who don't like it simply say it hurts. Effective for the face, back, legs, arms and beyond, waxing is a good hair removal choice for those who don't mind dealing with the initial shock.

Laser hair removal is a favorite for those who want hair removed for good - or close to it. More expensive than the other removal processes, this one involves a medical or at least salon or clinical setting for the use of a specialized laser. The process doesn't work for everyone, but it is generally considered permanent or semi-permanent. The procedure is virtually painless and is considered so effective because the hair follicle itself is damaged during the procedure. Hair is removed and regrowth is retarded or prevented by the damage.

Hair removal is serious business. Choosing the right means for you should be considered carefully. Not all removal processes are alike and each comes with its own pros and cons.

Manscaping: Male Grooming  

Manscaping has been part of the male grooming. It is the act of grooming, shaving or trimming hair of the male body derived from landscaping. It can include shaving a man’s pubic hair in his penile organ – a trend started by the Japanese. In Japan, it is illegal for porn models to show their pubic hair in a magazine or movie so they are required to shave their pubic areas. From that, American and European women followed the trend, even men.

It is advisable for a man to practice shaving especially if he is involved in penis enlargement. He should shave all the annoying hair when doing the exercises to grip the penis shaft easier and prevent the risk of getting hurt when the hair is pulled.

There have been debates around on which best method is the best for shaving. Some say that razors are the best way to go and they are right to a certain extent. The razor lets the user have full control over how much hair goes and which parts are left untouched. On the other hand, using a razor requires quite a lot of dexterity or the help of a third party, which is not always easy to come by.

Thus, you can either go with an old-fashioned razor blade, a modern safety razor, an electric razor or rotary epilators. As you can see, there are lots of products to choose from so go with the one that you’re comfortable with. Electric shavers are very easy to use, but hair will start growing back faster. Rotary epilators are even better at removing hair, but some people don’t like to use them anywhere near their sensitive parts. If you choose classic razors, keep in mind the fact that you need to apply some shaving foam first and some aftershave afterwards in order to keep the itchiness away.

Try wax. It is also a good option, but some men are too conscious to apply hot wax on their most sensitive parts. It’s a matter of personal choice. Waxing is fast and inexpensive, but it can get messy and it’s not well suited to removing hair in a consistent fashion. You could also use depilatory creams or powders. It is dissolving hair using a mixture of chemicals. It is very easy to do but it can irritate your skin and still the hair grows back very fast.

If you don’t like the idea of shaving your pubic hair, you can try trimming it first. It will look good and you don’t need to worry that the blade might cause any trouble to your skin. Using aftershave or soothing cream after shaving will prevent the itchy feeling and pimples. I know you don’t want your partner to think that the pimples in your penis caused by shaving are the same as the pimples caused by the genital herpes.

Four Hair Removal Methods  

Hair removal can be a daunting daily task for both men and women. Ridding yourself of unwanted hair not only consumes time, but can be expensive as well. So, what are your options on hair removal when you are on a budget?

The first and the most common way to remove hair is shaving. Every man or woman has to shave certain parts of his or her body, oftentimes daily. Shaving can remove hair for as little as one day and last as long as eight days. The length of time between shaves varies among people. Some advantages of shaving are that razors are relatively inexpensive and the shaving process is quick. Also, there are many different types of razor available: disposable, three blade, four blade and electric. Just experiment with each type to see which is best for you. Disadvantages of shaving are razor burn, bumps, cuts and irritated reddish skin.

The next form of inexpensive hair removal is tweezing. Tweezing involves using a pair of tweezers to pluck hairs out of your skin one at a time. Hair grows back slower than shaving because you are actually pulling out the hair at its root. The hair then has to grow a new root, which takes a longer time than just shaving it off where it extrudes from your skin. Tweezing can keep you hairless for one to two weeks. Some benefits of tweezing are that it lasts much longer than shaving. A few drawbacks of tweezing are that it takes longer to tweeze hairs than shaving because you are only removing one hair at a time. Also, tweezing can be painful. Ingrown hairs and a reddening of the skin are common outcomes for tweezed areas.

Thirdly, one could wax the skin to remove hair. This is a lot like tweezing, but over a larger area of skin. During waxing, hot wax is spread thickly over an area where hair is to be removed. The wax is allowed to cool slightly and then the wax is pulled off of the skin in one swift motion. Waxing can remove hair for up to six weeks. However, waxing is very painful -- it rips many hairs out simultaneously by the root. Waxing leaves you hair free for a much longer time than shaving or tweezing, but is it worth the pain? That is something you will have to find out for yourself. Waxing also can leave the affected area of skin red for a short time.

The newest form of hair removal is laser treatments. Laser treatments involve treating areas of unwanted hair with a laser. The hair follicles absorb the laser and it damages the hair. You can be hairless for up to eight weeks. New forms of lasers are being introduced everyday and hair removal can last even longer. Some drawbacks of laser hair removal are a slight stinging sensation when the laser touches your skin and it can be quite expensive.

Hair removal can be accomplished in many ways. How you do it depends on your own personal preference. You must decide how much time and money you want to spend. Moreover, make sure you can handle some pain if you choose waxing or laser hair removal. Keep experimenting until you find what method is best for you.

Removal Of Facial Hair - 4 Cheap Ways To Remove Facial Hair  

There are a number of different ways that the removal of facial hair can be used in order to get a silky smooth hairless face.

1. The first method you can try is shaving. However, with this method it is only temporary and certainly not recommended to be used by women. What is important to remember is that with this method hair regrowth tends to occur rapidly and in some cases may be more pronounced and thicker than before.

2. You could have a go and use tweezers. Although this is a great way for removing un-wanted hair from small areas on the face it can be painful. The reason why so many women find this method painful is that the hair is plucked out at the root. But the benefit of this method is that it takes longer for regrowing hair to appear.

3. Use depilatory creams, gels or lotions. These contain a chemical that alters the structure of the hair and so makes it much more easy to remove. These are certainly one of the cheapest ways for the removal of facial hair. Not only is it inexpensive, it can also be done in the privacy of your own home and is usually pain free. However, the disadvantages for using this method are that the effects are very short lived (often only lasting for several days) and it can cause irritation or even burning to a person's skin. So it is vital that when using these products you only use ones which are specially formulated for the face and also carry out a skin test on a small section of your face before using the product. Make sure you read the instructions provided with the product carefully and this should help you to avoid skin irritation or chemical burns to your face.

4. Why not think about waxing. This type of removal of facial hair can be carried out every 4 to 6 weeks. You will normally need to apply either a cold or hot wax to the area of unwanted hair and you then pull off the wax and this brings the hair with it. Again it is best if you test a small area of your skin in order to see if you have an allergic reaction to the wax before you commence using it and it is important not to put the wax on to either sunburned or irritated skin. Waxing can be painful but it will only be done once every 1.5 months.

The above are 4 of the more inexpensive ways for removal of facial hair. There are more expensive ways as well such as electrolysis or laser hair removal that you may want to try instead.

Women Speak Out! Is Shaving Pubic Hair Manly?  

Nowadays, grooming is entering every aspect of our lives. We men are shifting our paradigms, and find ourselves in stuff that we never even thought possible decades before. It’s true, men have always in some way or another take care of their looks, but now this trend is entering the lives of common men who are trying new things like shaving pubic hair.

However, pubic shaving in men is not something that is seen with good eyes by everyone. Some men think it is for gay men, while others use it as a way to boost their metrics statistics. But often women are left out of the conversation, so we went out and asked women what they think of men shaving pubic hair.

To our surprise, the majority of women didn’t even care about it. They say “whatever feels good for a man”, but they tend to put a stop at a certain level. They say that men can take care of that part, but to a ‘healthy’ extent. They don’t want a man who is constantly worried about his looks, specially his “down-under” looks!

Beside this majority, there is a polarity of on one side, women who think it is ‘cleaner’ to shave your pubic hair, and on the other side, women who like macho hairy men. But all women agree that manliness is not something that you should judge by the way a man treat his pubic hair. “There are all kinds of men” said Patricia, a woman who confessed she had lovers on the both sides of the spectrum “some of them are TOO concerned about how they look, I mean... there’s always a balance right?”.

So, the question here as a man, is to ask ourselves the questions. If you like to try pubic shaving you don’t have to feel less manly. Besides the only ones who will be noticing it are you and your lover. I think this whole issue brings fears to the hearts of some men who think manliness is in doubt due to some isolated activities.

If you’d like trying shaving your pubic hair, I would recommend to take it slow and go with patience. You won’t believe the amount of men who end up cutting themselves because they shave in a hurry. Also, be sure to find online an easy guide to shaving your pubic hair in a step by step manner. Good luck!

Male Pubic Hair Shaving  

By Joqtan Anicama

Shaving the family jewels can be lots of work, particularly if you've never done it before. It may take you up to an hour to do it the first time. Don't get all macho and make sure you invest in aftercare. Under no circumstances use an electric razor, the only thing it will do is cause’ you PAIN!

The easiest way to shave your crotch is to start at the bottom. Pull up everything with one hand and embark on shaving from in between your legs upward. Be very careful around the center of the scrotum, since your skin is particularly tender there. Afterward do both sides and finally concentrate on the top of your scrotum, preferably before working on and above your penis. By working at it this way you'll have the hardest parts completed first.


So why go through all the trouble of shaving your pubes? Check out the bonuses that make spending all the extra bathroom time worth every minute.

Most men worry obsessively about the hair on their heads yet rarely give some though about the pubic hairs. But when that hot babe comes along, only then do we realize that maybe spending some time on the magic stick could help us at action time.

Mr. Clean. The penis is a focal point for heat, sweat, and bacteria. Removing your pubic hair makes that area much easier to keep clean, and more notably, smelling clean and manly. She's more likely to explore that area up close if it's well maintained.

If you remove most or all of her pretexts, to performing oral sex on you, isn't it worth the trouble? Pay special attention to removing stray hairs from your shaft. You don't want her choking on your pubes.

Don't Forget The Scrotum. A woman's body is playground of softness and smoothness, so don't you think she'll appreciate the same on you? Silky smooth balls invite both manual and oral affection. She's far more likely to play down there if she doesn't have to use a weed whacker to find it.

The Empire State Building on your crotch! Need I say more? You will swear that you gained at the very least an extra inch in length! If your crotch is not groomed regularly, you probably have pubic hair at least part way up your shaft. Your penis seems to begin where that pubic hair ends. Remove the underbrush and whip out the real magic stick.

Note that some people experience moderate to intense itching the first couple of days after shaving as the pubic hair grows back. Try your first shave on a weekend you avoid moving around like ants in your pants on Monday the itching should decrease or stop if you continue to groom yourself frequently.

And just in case the boys on in the locker room start making fun of you, first and foremost ask them why are they checking you out, especially why are the looking at your dick. In the embarrassed silence that follows, tell them why you did it, that you're having twice as much sex as they are, and what most women won't do with them, they're more than happy to do with you! Then if you feel like it, let them in on your secret.

You might already know how to shave your legs but here's how to shave bikini hair Stand with one leg on a chair or stool. Shave lightly from back to front in the direction of hair growth, being careful not to go over the same area more than twice as this can cause razor burns.

Pubic Hair Removal - Tips When Shaving  

Pubic Hair Removal - Tips When Shaving

In some cultures pubic hair removal has been performed for centuries for hygiene and other reasons. Now it is becoming widely accepted all over the world and both men and women are keen to find a pubic hair removal method which suits them.

Shaving is inexpensive and easily done at home although there are certain precautions that need to be met. Additionally, new personal shavers which have come on the market in recent years make pubic hair removal by shaving a much easier option. (See resource box at the end of this article)

Use these tips to perform pubic hair removal safely if shaving is your choice:

Never use the old-fashioned switch-blade razor. It is quite unsuitable for pubic hair removal and can be dangerous.

Choose a female razor, obtainable from Wilkinson Sword or other well known razor manufacturers, rather than an ordinary safety razor. The design makes it much more difficult to cut yourself.

Opt for a more expensive good quality razor rather than a cheap throw away which is more likely to cause nicks, soreness and razor burns in this sensitive area.

If the pubic hair is thick and long use small scissors to trim down the hair to about a quarter of an inch. This will avoid blunting and clogging the razor too quickly.

Before performing a pubic hair removal session, wet a large, washcloth and lay it over the entire pubic area for two or three minutes.

Alternatively, take a long hot bath or stay in the shower for a while making sure the pubic area receives a lot of water. Pubic hair is coarser than head hair and needs more time to soften when carrying out pubic hair removal.

Apply plenty of shaving foam or gel over the area and leave for a few minutes to soften further. Ordinary soap is not suitable as it does not lock in the moisture to the hair the way a shaving preparation cream or gel does.

Experiment with different brands if you find some cause skin irritation. They contain various chemicals and you need to find one that suits you.

Pull the skin straight with your free hand and shave without applying pressure.

Shave upwards against the direction of the hair growth.

Make sure there is shaving foam on the skin each time you make a stroke with the razor.

Shaving bare skin can cause razor burn and can be especially painful in pubic hair removal.

Rinse the razor every couple of strokes as it will clog easily.

Rinse off and see any areas that may have been missed and again apply gel to that area and shave.

To make pubic hair removal less stressful for the skin, massage unscented Vitamin E oil into the pubic area after shaving.

To stop or reduce itching after shaving rub an ice cube over the area.

Alternatively, rub a little baby oil into the pubic area.

If you suffer from itchiness or blood spots, let the hair grow back for a week before shaving again.

Keep the shaven area well moisturized between shaves by using a skin moisturizer or baby lotion. This will reduce the uncomfortable effect the stubble may cause between shaves.

Ingrown hair can be a problem when shaving and it can be particularly uncomfortable when it appears in the pubic area. For full information on how to eliminate and prevent ingrown hairs you may wish to check out the web site at ingrown-hair-solutions.com (see resource box below).

Having fully educated yourself on pubic hair removal methods and procedures you should be able to get good results from the method you choose.

Pubic shaving has been made so much easier with the introduction of specialized personal shavers. Details here:
