How To Shave Your Balls

Shaving your scrotum can be a delicate process, but it’s not difficult once you get the hang of it. Here are some steps to help you get started:

  • Trim the hair: Before you start shaving, use scissors or clippers to trim the hair as short as possible. This will make it easier to shave and reduce the risk of cuts and irritation. Sometimes the best way to get this done is by using a hair trimmer with an adjustable head. I like to set it to 2-4mm to get the bulk of the hair off. I like the Braun trimmer because it came with a bunch of accessories and is cheap and simple to use. Do this before introducing any water. Do not use the raw end of the clipper to shave your junk. It will cut you. #regrets.

  • Prepare the skin: Take a warm shower or bath to soften the hair and skin. This will make it easier to shave and reduce the risk of razor burn.Warm water can make hair easier to shave because it has a softening effect on the hair shaft. The heat from the warm water causes the hair shaft to become more pliable and hydrated, which makes it easier to cut. When hair is dry, it tends to be stiff and brittle, making it difficult for a razor to glide smoothly over the skin. By softening the hair shaft with warm water, you can reduce the risk of razor burn and other skin irritations, as well as make it easier to get a closer, smoother shave.The warm water also opens up the pores, which can help to release any trapped hair follicles and reduce the risk of ingrown hairs.
  • Lather up: Use shaving cream or soap specifically designed for sensitive skin to lubricate the area. I like to get it as soapy as possible to create a base layer of well lubricated skin. This is to help prevent itching irritation, cuts, and ingrown hairs.
    • Sometimes the best products are actually for women. I like Cremo’s because it’s made for shaving sensitive areas like legs, armpits, and happens to work well for sensitive areas.

  • Shave carefully: Using a new, sharp razor (like the one included in the kit above!) pull your scrotum tight and gently shave in the direction of hair growth. After one or two strokes, check the shave head and clear the hair. Reapply soap, and continue to work section by section, frequently checking and clearing the head of hair and reapplying shaving cream or soap. Do not use an electric razor for this!
    • Let the razor do the work, do not press or use too much pressure.
    • Keep the skin tight when shaving over the area.
  • Rinse and dry: After you’ve finished shaving, rinse the area with cool water to remove any shaving cream or gel. Pat dry with a clean towel, being careful not to rub the skin.

  • DO NOT SKIP AFTER CARE!
    • Always, always always use some kind of moisturizer on yourself after shaving in the shower. Use a good amount, and rub it into your junk. This is going to save you from getting itchy and irritated balls overnight. Depending on how dry your skin tends to be, you may want to put moisturizer on in the following couple of days. I usually reapply after the shower for 2-3 days to keep things comfortable.

It’s important to be careful and take your time when shaving your scrotum to avoid cuts and irritation. If you experience any discomfort, stop shaving and give your skin time to heal before trying again.
