    I know someone whose "mates" shaved him, partially anyway, when he passed out on his stag night ... he was scratching himself something wicked all through his wedding day, and was caught on video a couple of times. :D

    Veet creams remove your unwanted hair whilst respecting the delicate nature of your skin. They can be used on legs, underarms and the bikini area. Veet recently launched newly reformulated creams that are enriched with caring ingredients to nourish and moisturise your skin. They will leave your skin soft, silky, and smoother for longer. Whereas shaving cuts off the hair at the skin's surface, creams gently dissolve the hair leaving a soft tip under the surface meaning that regrowth is softer and stubble free. Removal is made easy with the "Perfect Touch" spatula which has a flexible soft-touch fin at each end to glide over the contours of the body ensuring that every single hair is gently removed.

    Pack Contents

    * 1 x Veet cream tube 100g
    * 1 "Perfect Touch" spatula

    Working Time

    5 Minutes

    Before use, always read pack instructions carefully.

    Apparently some shams do it to make the C0CK look longer.
    Don't need to myself ;)

    Have had a few people tell me that they had allergic reactions to this stuff....any way to know if yer sack will be red raw before using this stuff?

    I've shaved a few times, but I'm usually not even bothered to shave my face more than twice a week, so something that (unfortunately) doesn't get seen much is even less likely to be attended regularly!

    Pull the skin taut and be gentle with the Razor. Ideally the Philips body shave works a charm :cool:

    Itches badly if you go too far behind the sack. Doesn't sweat more, but if feels all sweaty cos there's no rug of pubes there. I don't do it often, but it's worth it for the extra feel, especially a lá dog, if you see what I mean;)
    Don't knock it till you've tried it:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,793 ✭✭✭✭Hagar


    Shaving? Pfft.
    You can't beat a well groomed sack. Use some styling mouse or go for an attractive side parting*. If you wear a cricket cup you can avoid that "flattened hair" look all too common with modern tight fitting underpants.



    * For the ladies I would recommend sticking with the traditional centre parting. A side parting can lead to unnecessary confusion with a drunken partner. Although a horizontal parting can be a definite plus (+).

    Heaps of trimmage


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,566 ✭✭✭Gillo


    I've used the Philip's shaver for a few years now and fine it great. The Veet sounds like a good option, I take it boot's stock it? just curious are there and real men who use a cut throat?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,222 ✭✭✭\m/_(>_<)_\m/


    oh yes, I'm fully shaved, wife loves it. and sometimes helps me shave and i love to return the favour. great fun.

    Yes, usually the instructions suggest you do a patch test 24 hours beforehand. Often they suggest you do it on the inside of your wrist as if you have a reaction there, you're likely to have one elsewhere.

    I use to the veet on my fella's and he and I both prefer down there to be hairless. And it can be fun to do it for him. I recommend that every bloke tries it. But not shaving, there is nothing worse that seeing your fella scratch himself constantly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,365 ✭✭✭hunnymonster


    There is always waxing as an alternative, no screatchy regrowth or nasty smell. Longish lasting results too. Best get that done by a professional though.

    I trim and even shave the hairs off the bottom of the 'shaft'

    I wouldn't have considered doing it until my g/f said something like

    "Oh I love giving oral, but I hate getting a mouthful of pubes..."

    Compelling argument, No? :D

    No, I don't.
    Luckily they are shadowed in his presence.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,683 ✭✭✭✭Owen


    I trim the main bulk of the hair down to 2mm with a trimmer, and I shave my 'shaft'. Basic hygene! Besides, my SO treats me by being bald, so it's only fair I reciprocate in some form.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,286 ✭✭✭SprostonGreen


    A good trim yes, but not shaving, tried it years ago once.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,723 ✭✭✭empirix


    I trim it, nice and neat, missus and most women in my experience likes it neat for when going down

    They were real men until they tried it with a cut throat :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,399 ✭✭✭✭r3nu4l


    Never tried it but would have no problem trying it if asked to...I'd probably use hair removal cream though!

    If you are shaving, try to buy a good moisturiser (without tea tree oil or mint fragrance!) that ahs anti-itch (anti-pruritic) ingredients ;)

    Sums it up pretty well

    As for shaving it bare, definately not

    Trimming is good. Shaving not good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 950 ✭✭✭cotwold


    Does hair removal cream really make your skin smell weird afterwards for days?
