I understand that BJs are more likely to be given to those with neat manscapes. For this reason, and general aesthetic preference, I’ve been tending to my brambles for some time with varying methods and likewise varying degrees of success.
My best success came from electric clippers to get the rough out of the way and Nair to clean up the remainder. I’ve met with limited success on my scrotum as, being a wrinkly terrain, the electric clippers like to nab bits of my flesh. Nair seems to have trouble with untrimmed hairs though so my solutions so far leave by scrote and bunghole with some lingering strays.
Recently, I decided to just smother the whole everywhere with a thick spread of Nair, after removing the easy bits with electric clippers, and leaving the Nair on for its maximum recommended duration.
This did not work. Aside from the hair that still clings to all my nooks and crannies, I now have a yeast infection…
What is a body to do? Permanent laser treatment runs upward of three thousand dollars, I’m thinking there must be a halfway solution around here somewhere though.
Does the community have any solutions to recommend?
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) hair removal uses a very bright white light to damage the hair follicles. This will make the hair thinner and finer over time, and theoretically can permanently damage the follicles to remove hair completely. You can buy hand held home devices, though the process is time consuming for large areas like the legs. The procedure I use is to shave, exfoliate, then flash the hairs I want to remove. I’ve used it a few times on everything from my face to my feet and it has helped a lot. Massively reduced my ingrown hairs from shaving and the hairs that aren’t dead are much finer and softer so I can shave them faster and against the grain where I couldn’t before.
I should note that it doesn’t work well for light hair or low contrast between the hair and the skin.
For shaving I use a safety razor, one of the fancy ones from Henson Shaving. It basically eliminated my razor burn and the razors stay sharp way longer than the standard multiblade razors. I could shave dry with that thing (slowly).
