After careful review of similar hair removal products there is one product that we highly recommend. This complete system includes two tools that provide the user with a very close shave and causes the least amount of ingrowns and skin irritation. The first tool -the trimmer - a dry shaver- carefully lifts the hairs (without pulling) and gently trims close to the skin. The second tool - the finisher - smooths away the stubble. This works especially well for black men because it works well to pick up the curly hair.

Ingrown hairs tend be more problematic for the black man because razors pull the hair too high above the skin and then after the razor cuts, the tip of the follicle curls back beneath the skin causing ingrowns. The razor can also be rough and damaging to the top layer of skin. The EZ-HairRemoval system, mentioned above, is more gentle on the skin and still provides a superior smoothness.

It is crucial for anyone with dry skin and curly hair to use a high quality moisturizer. It is important to moisturize daily, BUT not within a few hours of using this shaving system. This system is to be used on dry skin, so if there is newly laid lotion the tolls will clog up. Before this hair removal process, it is wise to soften the hair with a shower or warm washcloth. After shaving it is recommended to wash thoroughly and moisturize.

Laser hair removal is not always permanent and the effectiveness of laser hair removal depends on many factors. These factors include skin pigment, skin type and hair type (thickness & density). Laser often takes several sessions in order to remove all the hair folicles in the area.

Hair folicles cycle every three to six weeks. So, it may take several times before all the hair is removed in any given area. I have known some that have required 5-10 treatments to secure smoothness. This can become extremely pricey. We feel the word permanent is also often misused. For many, permanent may be 5-10 years and for some it is only a couple of years before you must repeat the process.

If you have the time, money and patience this laser may be an option for you. Realistically, for many laser is not feasible or economical. If you were only doing one small area it might be worth it, but for three large areas as mentioned - back, abdomen and chest hair removal, it would not be my method of choice.

p.s. - Don't forget that using a hair growth inhibitor is a great way to get better results with any hair removal system. The product I personally use and recommend is Kalo.

    We found that after testing the Bodygroomer we felt even more strongly about the EZ-Hair Removal System. This kit provides all the necessary tools and accessories to aid in all your manscaping needs and achieve wonderfully smooth skin anywhere - for men or women. The kit includes a trimmer, finisher, cleaning brush, hair removal talc powder and apllication brush, convenient storage box and fun sexy stencils. This kit was created especially for manscaping; trimming and removing hair from all parts of the body - mostly sensitive areas.

    One major advantage to the EZ-Hair Removal System is the finisher. There are many times when the stubble is not long enough to trim, but simply needs a quick little removal. The finisher is perfect for that and can be done daily to help maintain smooth, sexy skin. And don't forget about the hair growth inhibitor that works great to inhibit hair growth in between shaving/manscaping and should ultimately be used in combination with any shaver you choose to use.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions. Happy Manscaping - Chris

    There are a few things to keep in mind – hair preparation, hair removal location and the proper tools. Let’s begin with hair preparation. If you apply a powder to your skin prior to trimming/removing hair, anywhere on your body, it helps to lift the hair off your skin. This greatly assists in removing more hair, more closely and helps to keep your tools dryer and cleaner. Another very important element of anal hair preparation is cleanliness. It is crucial to cleanse the area prior to any hair removal. You must make sure your tools are not exposed to any nasty germs. So, please first wash and dry well – now you’re ready.

     We are looking for a location that offers a few key components. First, you will need to be able to easily clean up the fallen hairs. The area should also be well lit. A shower, with a tub, or the side of the bed tend to work well because you can put one leg up as to expose the area. You must also be able to incorporate the use of a mirror. If you are limber enough you may not need the use of a mirror in removing testicle hair, but for anal hair I’m pretty sure none of you are limber enough to bend and twist that much. Try and balance a hand held mirror on the side of the tub, chair, stool, side of the bed, or whatever you foot is resting upon. Some of the trimming will be done by touch as well. Be careful after any hair removal procedure not to apply any harsh soaps, lotions, perfumes, etc.

 I recommend one specific kit that incorporates all the necessary tools for a painless, easy, smooth and long lasting hair removal and manscaping experience. It comes with the powder I mentioned earlier, and trimmer and finisher which is great for quick smoothing, not to mention some fun and sexy stencils. www.EZ-HairRemoval.com Enjoy and happy trimming.

I am not crazy about the Phillips Norelco. Although it provides a smooth shave, it doesn't come with a seperate shaver that smooths the stubles in-between shaving. And yes, if you shave this sensitive area every day you are more likely to get the bumps and razor burn. As in my last post, I highly recommend Bikini Zone products to help with that razor burn. You apply it after shaving and it really helps to prevent those itchy bumps and razor burn.

I hope this has helped in your manscaping adventure!

Here is the direct quote from one of my subscribers: "I downloaded your e-book and it was very helpful…i did have some more questions though..can you shave your pubic hair too often?"

Here is my answer: The answer is no - you can't shave your pubic area too often. Obviously, some people have more sensitive skin than others and shaving more often may cause this area to become irritated if you have sensitive skin.

When I do occassionally get irritated skin when I shave my balls or surrounding pubic area, I will use a soothing gel from Bikini Zone.They make it in a gel, a cream and they also make pads. They all work the same to stops bumps, itching, redness, and pain after hair removal. This product is dermatologist tested and safe to use on sensitive skin after genital hair removal.

The Personal Shaver system that I use and recommend so highly is great for men who need to shave often and have sensitive skin. The benefit is that it comes with two shavers - the Trimmer and the Finisher. What's so great about this system is that the Trimmer only has to be used when the pubic hair is a little longer, but the Finisher can be used in-between to keep the area smooth. The Finishing Shaver has an outer foil that is not designed to cut the hair like the Trimmer, but it removes stubble and leaves smooth, silky skin.

I hope this helps.

For bodybuilders removing unwanted hair  is as important as building muscle.  Your body building efforts will be less visible if your bodyis convered with hair!  For any competing bodybuilder, hair removal is a must but it's also growing in popularity among casual bodybuilders.

Laser hair removal and electrolysis both provide permanent hair removal, however, both are very costly and could leave skin scarred if not done properly!

Shaving with a dry electric shaver works great for most areas especially if like this one, the kit includes a finishig shaver to get all areas as smooth as you can and reduce stubble when the hair grows back.

Here are the areas that most men - bodybuilders or not - want to manscape:

Upper Lip, Chin, Mustache and Beard - shaving is best

Back of Neck - shaving is best

Chest - Waxing (OUCH!!!), shaving, depilatories (creams)

Shoulders, Back, Arms, Hands, Tummy -  Waxing (OUCH!!!), depilatories, shaving.

Underarms - Shaving is safe in this area. Hair under the arm grows in all directions so a side to side stroke as well as up and down strokes may be necessary to catch all the hairs. To avoid irritation and soarness do not apply deodorants or antiperspirants right after shaving. To avoid the risk of chemical burns on the sensitive skin in this area,no not use depilatories for the underarms.

Pubic Area and Bikini Line - If the hair is long it can be cut down with scissors.  The personal shaver is perfect for these sensitive areas for both men and women.

Genitals - Hair growing on the shaft of the penis and on the testicles can be removed by shaving using a dry shaver. For tips on how to best shave this area click here.

Anus and Perineum - The Perineum is the area of skin rich in nerve endings located below the anus. In men it extends to the base of the testicles, in women to the vaginal opening. The anus is a mucous membrane. Depilatories should not be used as they can result in serious damage. Shaving does produce stubble and needs to be done frequently to avoid irritation as the sides chafe and rub together. 

Legs, Feet, Toes - Shaving the legs is popular - be sure to use a kit that provides both a trimmer and a finisher for the smoothest results!

Hair inhibitors are a fantastic way to increase the effectiveness of any hair removal technique, especially shaving. By significantly reducing hair growth hair removal sessions become less frequent. Check out the best hair inhibitor on the market!
