If you use any kind of blade or trimmer, both are capable of creating micro-abrasions. So it's important to leave enough time for those to heal: about a day.
Do you guys trim your bush or not, and if so, how close do you go? [I wish this board had a way of setting up a poll.]
I get my chest, shoulders, back and my privates waxed. It’s not as painful as you think it might be. The ladies love it.
It's not like the waxing scene in 40 Year-Old Virgin?
How do you get yer balls waxed? I wouldn't rip that patch off too quickly!
Trim with electric trimmer for beards. Set to the lowest setting. Never heard a complaint in ten years.
so one gal showed me how to shave down there, and ever since I've had much better results.
Feels cooler in the summer also.
But I keep a landing strip. Gals say it is a lot easier on their lady parts when doing cowgirl.
near my crotch area, because that's the way I like my women and it would be disingenuous to expect anything from them that I wouldn't do myself. The takeaway is that women (both civvie and provider) will often tell me I'm the cleanest man they ever met when it comes to hygiene. I regard it as a win-win.
I got professionally lasered for a year and now use an at home device. It still grows patchy but I never get razor burn and it’s not painful like sugar waxing/waxing so it’s amazing!

Shaft, area around base, sack = shaved. The rest of the area is very closely trimmed.
Taint and gluteus cleft = I've been using hair removal cream with great results.
To a certain extent my manscaping depends on who I'm seeing. If it's someone I've never seen before I do it all. If it's a known lady and I know she doesn't BLS I'll let that go a bit for, instance.
Could I please ask what cream for your privates? Any time I have used a hair removal cream down there, it stings something awful. Thanks.
a pain in the ass? Lol
I don't know about HolyStone, but for some guys, the pain might be part of the attraction. Lol
Sorry for the late reply. It's called "Breavo". The packaging says it's "for men" but I don't see why a woman couldn't use it. Available on Amazon.
Just curious & without doing any reading on the product, why not use this on the twig & berries as well as the taint & back door?
I shave shaft and balls slick smooth. I trim the bush above (and armpits) to 12mm or so, once in a while. Shaving was the good advice of an experienced monger, on here years ago. It has paid off in better feels for me and possibly in better enthusiasm from the ladies, though that's not certain. But I don't shave chest, back, pits, legs, ... .
I trim the two inches of my abdomen above my dick with a clippers and a #2 blade (1/4"). Above that, I trim the rest of my abdomen with a #4 blade (1/2").
On the carrot and potatoes, I trim everything with the clippers and a #1 blade (1/8" - being VERY careful). And then I use a rotating blade, waterproof electric razor in the shower and shave it all smooth.
If you use any kind of blade or trimmer, both are capable of creating micro-abrasions. So it's important to leave enough time for those to heal: about a day.
Remember how it burned when you splashed on aftershave after using a razor!
An aloe based lotion is the way to go.
So yer sayin' I shouldn't shave while taking a preparatory shower in her hotel room?
that if I shaved/trimmed completely, I'd look like a little boy.
have a small dick and no body hair. I always get compliments on my shaving protocols in terms of cleanliness and hygiene, but I'm muscular and athletic, dick size is slightly above average, but not near magnum, and hair remains on my chest and legs, so there is no way any woman is going to think I'm pre-pubescent. When the shoe is on the other foot, how well do you like going in for DATY and having pubic hair going up your nose?
Yes, highly annoying.
The only worse choice is abrasive stubble.
I prefer clean/slick pussy lips, but I'll take even full bush over stubble.
But great if your nose start itching.
I prefer to think of it as nature's dental floss.

I use an electric trimmer just to cut back the overgrowth. One time I tried shaving my balls with safety razor but honestly that was more effort than it was worth. No one has ever complained.
Aren't we sick of troll on TER yet. What... they think this is Twitter(X), Facebook, Instagram,Snapchat, Tim Tok.
I am trimmed.. I trim with electric trimmer and shave my balls with disposable razor , but I love them bushes on women.. I recent saw someone from SA that had lot of hair.. Looked like fluffed up ball of cotton.
I'm the opposite, i.e. I prefer to mingle with Bare Naked Ladies and not get Bush Wacked. Ha!
Hello Team,
I have been using new disposable double edge razors to render myself hairless before trysting time, and routinely receive compliments on my hygiene. Generally, ladies appreciate the consideration and extra effort!
For facial shaving, I use a fine German-made double-edge razor, with very sharp blades of Japanese manufacture.
The other day, on a whim, I decided to try the above, "down there." I lathered-up, made sure my hands weren't shaking, and proceeded with extreme caution. Yes, I did get a few very minor nicks.
Sensitivity after this is breathtaking! I routinely see a tall, slender Asian MILF who barely speaks English. Not to worry, her tongue-game is amazing. I've already placed an urgent request for her next-available appointment!
PSA: Yes, as someone mentioned, open cuts are a pathway for STIs. Probably a good idea to wait a day or so. That being said, I follow a state-of-the-art PrEP regimen, so not worried about anything serious.
I am going to try hair removal cream, next.
