    Does anyone here shave their ''private area'' with a safety razor? So far I've used trimmers. I'm worried about the nicks and cuts and also a safety razor blades is a little to wide(almost 45 mm ) to use in that area.

    We will both probably get reported and scolded for contributing to a thread like this.......but yes. Don't push it and be careful and all will be good.

    It's just just skin. Like anywhere else pull slightly taught, maintain your angle and don't over do it. Two pass, WTG, XTG and you will get good results.

    Yea. Used the body groom with the foil shaver and it's terrible. Nicks and pulls.

    youngunn Where's my TSD aftershave balm???

    I use my safety razor on my junk. Usually the Tech Ball Handle (see what I did there? Eh? Eh?)

    Seriously though, I do use that razor down there. Just be careful. Lots of cushy lather. And the little woman likes it so yeah.

    Yes, I always use my "Barber Pole" razor for this personal grooming. Seems appropriate...

    I don't shave there regularly(usually just trim a bit with scissors) but have shaved( junk and pits) on occasion. When I did shave there I used a Trac2, a bit easier to see the area, maneuver and so less chance of a nick or cut.:)

    Someone in the history of manscaping has to have used a straight on the junk. Right?

    Scary.

    I did a triple-shimmed EJ89 on mine with an Astra SP, and it worked out fine. Just be super careful and don't chop your p3nar off.

    Be sure to give everything a good dousing in witch-hazel when you're done (maybe that should be dowsing, eh?). :shocked003: It's purported to help treat those piles as well, so two stones...err, make that two birds with one stone. ;)

    It's the shaving brushes you have to watch out for.
