It was suggested that this deserved its own thread. Since we put the ladies in the spotlight, lets turn the mirror on ourselves and see how they would rate us in overall in the performance category. One provider already has said, guys wash your "balls" better..

It appears that some of us are not participating in Hygiene as actively as we need to be...

Keep the arrows coming... We all need to hear it.. and most important learn from it........

Keep the slobber to yourself.  No lady likes to be drooled upon.  I don't find saliva a sexy liquid when it's slipping down my back or my face as your using it for a sponge hee hee.  It can be controlled by practicing on swallowing instead of letting it spill out or wear a bib to wipe with.  Darlyn

The one thing that is starting to bother me is this:

When your hour or hours are over, please leave. I have these guys staying late for many different reasons. (Believe me, I give like 10-15 min extra, but when you are there over that little bit of extra time, go home!!!

Also, ask a provider (when giving her oral, how she likes it. Too many men want to rip my cl*& off!) Gentle please.

My two cents..Philadelphia's Tattooed Escort, Shaye

The washing thing definitely!  Wherever you want my tongue to go, please clean it first.

Reading some of these reply's amaze me.   Practicing good hygene seems like common sense and is part of self respect.
It is very surprising that people actually show up without cleaning up. I for one take it to an extreme and I never visit with anyone without fully taking a shower before hand.

I would never blame a provider for refusing a meeting because of hygene.  I would refuse service if the provider wasn't clean.

My opinion is that the few providers I have talked with deserve respect and have never had unreasonable requests.  It is for everyone's health safety.

I always take a shower upon arriving for the appt, unless I've taken one at home just beforehand. This is only common courtesy, but it's also a sure fire way to obtain as "accomodating" treatment as the provider offers. When a provider I've seen hasn't been clean, there's not been repeat business from me. Therefore, why would I expect any difference in attitude from the woman involved? If I enjoy seeing her, it's best to treat her like she's worth it. As for the cl** treatment..ymmv works both ways!! Personally, I believe you have to pick your spots.

I am shaved, and nice and smooth below. Please take the time out, to be the same.

I know that after dinner listerine doesn't go well with champagne or wine.. but I feel better if the guy takes a swish (remember, you have to do it for at least 30seconds for it to work)as brushing does not kill all germs/bacteria.  I am not anyone's mother, so I feel kind of strange offering my personal small bottle I carry around.  But guys, this would be a great idea just to have one of those small bottles with you, girls love a guy who shows he is clean and neat!  And chances are, if you have a date with me, you'll definately be getting a smoochie from my coochie.  LOL

Btw, Ferangi, *xo

This feedback is actually a bit troubling... I am surprised as to some of this.. Especially on the hygeine area.  One provider who I have talked about this issue with explained that alot of men assumed since they showered in the morning that it was enough even though they had gone all day working.  

As far as the Oral goes, ladies if a guy is too rough you have got to tell them... I see no execuse for someone being bruised... Forget ego.  I would like to think that most of us are sensitive enough to want to not hurt you...

There is some valuable feedback here..All of us hobbyists need to look at some of these criticisms and then look our selves and see if we might be doing any of these things...

Any suggestions?  I used to tweezer hair away, but found it too time-consuming.  Has anyone tried Nair?  I was going to try it, but the user instructions warned against using it in the genital area.  If anyone has tried Nair, does it cause rashes?  Any suggestions would be really appreciated; most of them women I dated when I was "bare" loved it!

I ALWAYS take the time to shower, shave and be prepared for time with a lady.  Fellas, you are going on a date.  It's not only common sense but courtesy as well.

I always try to shower, shave and brush my teeth within an hour of my appointment. If for some reason it is longer, I use hygenic wipes in a restroom before the visit along with mouthwash. I think my approach to hygene has paid off for me. Why else would an overweight, balding old man get some of the wonderful treatment I have been so fortunate to receive. One lady even told me, "I believe you are the cleanest man I have ever been with, and I want to tell you I really appreciate it". I have also been told "You cant believe how bad some guys smell". There is no excuse for poor hygene, - we expect it from the ladies, we should offer it to them.
Also, if you have a halitosis problem, try organic liquid cholorophyl or capsules an hour before your visit. And, a breath mint just before the knock on the door always helps.

Hey,
I am a pretty hairy guy. I can't shave my genital area because my wife would be very suspicious. She has no issue with it. As long as I clean myself thoroughly would that not be sufficient??

As far as bad breadth another factor that could be the culprit could be gum disease... Many of us have it.. Flossing regularly is critical, if not then you need to see a dentist every  3 months to have your gums cleaned. Plaque build-up causes bad breadth and if you don't have the plaque removed, you can brush your teeth all day, and within an hour your breadth will be bad because of this problem...

Do NOT use NAIR!!!!!!

Old fashion sissors, sterialized and shaving.. If you really want to permanently eridacate all the hair, laser treatments but very expensive...

WOW...I am so glad this is brought up , makes me very happy. Now , to the shaving thingie...I don't care how old you are and how often you get out. Shave at all times , makes you happier believe me and more confident. Nothing nicer then to drop your pants at any time given to find out , sahved balls are so very appreciated and more payed with...lol. If for any reasons you can't get there yoursef, ask a Provider to help you out with this. I have made my "Thing" so to spaeak to take matters in my own hands..lol and quiet good at it. The other thing I would like to bring up is this...OK you took a shower in the morning but most likely you went in the course of the day to the bathroom (#2). I had it happen to me that I had to remove Toilett paper which is so very unpleasent and puts a damper on the situation. If you know that you see us , go to the bathroom and clean yourself..please. Also...kissing...not everybody is a good kisser ...plus, bad breath ect. Think if you have children that Flu season might be a reason for some providers to saty away from it at all cost. Thank you. xoxo Nadia

Shaving:

Razor: Mach III (Triple edged with a lubrication strip. Have used this since 1996 NEVER nicked or drawn blood!)

Pre-Shave: Dove body wash.

Shave Cream: Aramis Lab Series Maximum Comfort Shave Cream: Available at higher end department stores (Nordy's, Macy's, etc.) Contains a bit of benzocaine and some outstanding emolients to keep your skin moisturized.  The benzocain numbs you out and does a great job of suppressing any irritation or razor burn, which is extremely rare with the Mach III.

Post Shower and Shave: Aramis Talcum Powder applied sparingly to Big Jim and the Twins with a powder puff or barber's brush. Not too much because the powder is scented and will also dry out the provider's mouth.

Hope this helps,

Okay,

Now that we are clear on the hygiene issues lets move on. Ladies, your client is clean, smells good, and is properly groomed. Now what about his performance... What have you seen that you like, what have you also seen that needs improvment...

One provider already told us that oral techniques need to be alittle more gentle...

I keep a small bottle of scope and a towel next to the bed. After DATY, I use a small amount of scope and use the towel to discard it. The ladies appreciate it and I like knowing that my breath is clean.

Do a search on google under 'pussy shaver'. You should then find that they offer a shaver that works for both men and women, along with the awesome little one that fine-tunes it smoothly.(2). It's relatively inexpensive ($60) and doesn't leave red bumps and rashes.

Hope this helps,
Sedona

I'd like to thank everyone for offering their advice on being clean-shaven, but it was Sedona's tip about "pussy shavers" that surprised me the most; I didn't know they had such things.  Sedona, if you don't mind sharing, which brand do you find the best?  There seem to be a number of different ones and ndeedless to say, I have no experience buying one.


Thank You!
