subject: Genital Hair Removal Procedures For Men [print this page] There are different techniques for genital hair removal. Whichever you choose, it is necessary that you give extra care because the genital skin is sensitive. Of course, you may always seek professional advice and assistance to ensure that you are doing it right and safe.
Shaving is the most common way of removing unwanted hair. Even for genital hair removal, shaving is considered cost effective, easy and fast. One obvious disadvantage of the shaving procedure is that normal razors result to cuts and swelling of the skin which would further lead to pain, itchiness and infections. Similar with razor blades, depilatory creams are not fitted for genital hair removal because it may cause irritation. So after shaving, it is best that you apply after-shave creams to prevent hairs from growing sideways.
Another common technique is waxing. Unfortunately for men, this method favors women because waxing male's genital is not as simple as with that of female. There are a lot of waxing professionals that are reluctant to wax a scrotum because its skin is too loose which makes it too stretchy during the pulling off of the wax which definitely results to excessive pain . In addition to that, scrotum hairs are thicker which makes waxing even harder. However, if youre not comfortable about others seeing your private parts, you may opt to buy your own waxing kit to conduct the genital hair removal at the comfort of your home.
Although it is painful, many people still consider waxing as their hair removal routine because its result lasts from three to eight weeks. Hairs do not grow back that fast because they are being removed from the roots. The only thing that you would go against with this is pain.
Laser genital hair removal is another option if one wants to get rid of unwanted genital hairs. This procedure is costly because you have to undergo through a number of laser hair removal sessions. Moreover, one should be willing to bare it all in front of the waxing professional during the process.
