Pubic Hair Shaving Tips

Question: I have just met a wonderful new guy, and I think I love him. However, there is one unusual thing about him. He wants me to remove all my pubic hair.

When I asked him why he wanted me to do it, he said, that first of all, it would be 'more hygienic', and that second, 'it would turn him on'.

Also, how do I go about removing my pubic hair? No one has ever asked me to do this before! And I dare not ask any of my friends.

Answer: Well, it is important to realize that many men - and indeed women - find pubic hair quite sexy. However, in the last few years there has been a remarkable and worldwide trend towards removing pubic hair.

Let me deal with your new boyfriend's first reason for asking you to go bare: his claim that to be hairless in the pubic area is somehow 'more hygienic'. Despite what he says, this is nonsense, medically speaking. There is absolutely no scientific evidence that it is better health-wise to get rid of your pubic hair.

His second reason for asking you to remove your hair is that the sight of a 'nude' vulva turns him on. There is nothing very unusual in that, for it is undeniable that quite a lot of guys feel the same. Personally, I think it more likely that many guys prefer a hairless groin because it enables them to see more of the lady's anatomy.

Be that as it may, I urge you to make up your own mind as to whether you really want to divest yourself of your pubic hair. Please bear in mind that if you just shave it off, it will regrow - and that you will probably be a little itchy and uncomfortable when this happens!

Pubic Hair Removal Options

If you decide to go ahead, what are the options? The main ones are:

Using a 'depilatory' cream. Remember that such products can occasionally cause distressing 'sensitivity' reactions. So if you decide to use this method, first test the cream on the skin of your arm, to make sure that you are not allergic to it. I would recommend using an all natural hair removal cream as they are not as harsh.

Waxing. Removal by waxing hurts at the time, but most women seem to put up with that very bravely! I would recommend that you do NOT do it yourself, but ask a qualified beauty practitioner if she will undertake it.

Electrolysis. This is a method used by some beauty salons. It hurts a little, but if it is done by an expert, most hairs will not regrow. It does require a number of treatments to be effective.

Laser treatment. This also pains the lady a little, but it works well. This procedure requires multiple treatments and is very expensive but the hair removal is permanent.

Shaving. This is used by many women. But you have to be real careful how you use the razor, taking care not to cut your delicate tissues. Special razors designed for pubic shaving are now available. They are specially designed not to cut, nick or burn the pubic area.
