Thanked: 0Straight 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"!

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 detailsLast edited by crankymoose; 06-12-2009 at 07:49 PM.

Thanked: 1587Just 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.
