    The results look spectacular.

    But, when the hair is growing back, do you encounter any issues with pores or hair growth?

    Been personally using a OneBlade and getting things similarly smooth - but not without small cuts in the process and would like to try waxing too.

      Personally I haven’t had any issues like one or two little ingrowns after the first few times but as you keep doing it your hairs get thinner and thinner. I have a facial exfoliant that I use down on my bits every now and then and just keep things clean and moisturize! I used to just shave as well but waxing is a game changer, having weeks of clean shave feel is awesome. I do recommend skipping the front pubic area though cause that is the most painful and likely to get irritated, that part I just trim short. If you plan to wax your butt too that whole area is the easiest of it all, barely hurts IMO.

        Your advice is truly a game changer! Hadn’t considered using an exfoliant as aftercare when cleaning up down there. Makes so much sense and will give it a shot with waxing, as your process description truly has taken the fear away from trying it.

        Thanks so much! Oh - one more thing: briefs, boxers or free? Have started to personally change to briefs only for work while going free at home or when going out as weather allows after a trim. Has helped a lot to curb irritation too.

          Boxerbriefs, just basic 100% cotton ones. But I’ve also got some that are that bamboo material viscose that’s super thin and stretchy. Breaths really well. Both work fine I wear one or the other depending on how tight the pants are lol.

    Very nice. But doesn’t waxing hurt there? Or is the hurt the reason for the state?

      Its not bad at all to be honest. First time is the worst and then I’d you keep on schedule and keep waxing its not bad. Hair gets really fine and I also avoid the pubic area as that hurts the most.
