    Default Straight Shaving One's 'Nads

    Hey folks, so I'm definitely going to invest in a straight razor sometime soon, however I do have a question which I could not find answered on the forum. I'm a man who prefers keeping my down-under smooth. (for the ladies, of course) Has anyone had experience straight shaving down there? I can't determine whether it's a really good idea or an outright terrible one. Thanks in advance for your help

    You should have searched for "taint" or "rooster"!

    Here's a thread you might be interested in -- cautionary tale in the permalinked post:

    This is the one instance in which I would suggest that a DE might be a better option.

    quite appropriate this is in the newbies forum, as I can't imagine and don't to that want anyone who has cut there face once or twice with a straight even considering that, all I can say is

    and this thread is just fine without details

    Just make sure you are careful with your stretching. Also, I really would advise against venturing "off the beaten track" with a straight until you get some experience with one on your face first. Learn the grips and angles and movements on the relatively safe face area, and only venture below the belt once you feel confident in your skills.

    There is a lot to master with a straight, and the delicate areas are not the place to master them IMO.

    James.
