    Ehhh I would have thought that it's not exactly rocket science. Scissors seems the obvious one. As for others doing it or not, AFAIR there's a thread in the ladies lounge all about that kinda thing.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    +1 !!!

    A scissors. If you don't have a newspaper then use a dustpan and brush to tidy up. The floor that is.

    Just go into argos or boots and pick up a hair/beard trimmer. Set it to number 4 and lob the whole lot off (not your mickey) Nice and tidy and only takes a few mins.

    How about trying your local barber, failing that singe it of with a lighter...

    Be warned with the scissors, not for the obvious reasons :)

    Once you start, you think to yourself maybe i'll take another mm off, next thing you know, you are trimming your a*s hair and the happy trail, nipple hair etc to blend with your public region.

    Trim too short and it can lead to a bit of an itch.

    All in all, it's a liberating experience.

    Yeah yer man above is right you can get carried away using scissors, plus I've nipped my ballsack numerous times. Beard trimmer is the only way to go.

    I didn't know men thought about this kind of thing! Can I recommend you take up a hobby or find something more worthwhile to occupy your mind with?

    Having said that, burning it off with a lighter is probably your best bet!!

    I am in the process of recovering from a shave down under.
    I thought i'd suprise the woman on our sex weekend.

    People in Uni think I have crabs now. Scratching feels orgasmic...couple that with the area I'm scratching.
    You can see the problem in public.

    So erm yeah.
    Keep it short.
    Just not too short.
    *scratch*

    oooohhhhyyyeaaaahhhh

    Haha you get used to it after awhile and it doesn't itch. I use a beard trimmer aswell, obviously wash the area first etc. I've been shaving mine for about 4 years.. It feels much better and women do prefer it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭Auldloon


    Yip beard trimmer in the shower is the way forward and yes its easy get carried away but after a few times you will know what suits.

    Get a partner or other interested party (with a steady hand) to trim it with a clippers. Best to cut it dry though, imo.

    Feels nice too. :D

    I have to agree with this. I'm a male and perhaps I am just fortunate in terms of hair growth, but I have not ever considered this. I just never thought of the day where it became commonplace for a man to be pruning his bush. Always thought that was something for the ladies. :confused: Next men will be getting Brazilians or whatever else they're called. :eek: IMO, I think this era of metrosexual..ness ... is getting a bit out of hand.

    It would in turn bring a whole new meaning to the term "flamer" :pac:

    Thread closed as it was fast descending into utter daftness.
