Question: How do I shave my genital area properly.?
Ok, I'm a male..

2.. Wash pubic region and genitals..
3.. Use shaving cream..
4.. Shave against the grain..
5.. Wash off..

You should shave with the grain until you get used to it......i know its not a close shave or at least not as close, but until you get used to it......this is best.. also follow with hydrocortisone cream......it helps the bumps not come up!

You can also try an aftershave......for sensitive skin, it will help too!

Use Nair!......I know it sounds girly, but it works.. I use Nair for Sensitive Areas and I get no razor bumps or ingrown hairs.. To soothe the bumps use baby diaper rash cream, it works good.. But, seriously try Nair for Bikini Area......It works..Health Question & Answer
