8 Tips for Shaving Your Balls
Trimming pubic hair can be tricky, no matter the tool. Razors struggle with longer hair, requiring repeated shaving and rinsing, which is time-consuming. Scissors leave hair too long and are risky near sensitive areas. Trimming with Philips OneBlade leaves a long stubble and takes time.
In this article, I’ll share tips to make trimming pubic hair easier and safer.
The Right Tools
The KingBalls trimmer is built for intimate grooming. Tried other trimmers and ended up bleeding? Not anymore. The KingBalls trimmer features a separate GroinGuard™ blade, specially designed for safe pubic trimming. I guarantee the GroinGuard won’t nick your jewels. Simply swap the standard blade for the GroinGuard, follow the tips in this article, and trim with confidence!
A tip: you can identify the GroinGuard by the crown imprint in the center of the metal guard and the curve at its end.
Keep Your Skin Tight and Trim Calmly
Regardless of what tool you use to shave, it’s recommended to keep the skin as tight and smooth as possible. If you notice any irregularities on the skin, avoid trimming those areas. The calmer and more careful you are while shaving, the less likely you are to get cuts.
The Right Trimming Angle
When using a trimmer, maintaining the optimal angle is crucial. Always keep the trimmer head and metal guard flat against the skin. If you poke the blades into your balls or press the cutting side against the skin, a bloodbath is inevitable—no safety blade can prevent that.
Don’t press the trimmer firmly against your skin
If you press the trimmer firmly against your skin to achieve the closest possible cut, you’re treading dangerous waters. Trimmers are designed to leave a short stubble on purpose, ensuring the blade cuts hair without taking a piece of your skin with it.
Change Blades Before They Dull
A new blade always cuts better and safer than one used for a long time. It’s easy to forget to change blades regularly. Don’t wait for the first nick before changing the blade. The recommended replacement interval is about 3-4 months, depending on usage frequency.
Oil the Blades If Necessary
Trimmer blades come pre-oiled and generally don’t need additional oiling. However, if you use the trimmer often in the shower or clean the blade regularly, it’s a good idea to add a drop or two of oil if you notice it no longer cuts or moves like before. The KingBalls trimmer comes with a small oil bottle.
Try Grooming Other Body Parts
Could you save on barber costs by trimming the sides of your hair yourself? The KingBalls trimmer can easily keep your hair looking stylish daily. The trimmer comes with 3, 6, 9, and 12 mm guide combs, allowing you to cut your hair to the desired length. Hold the trimmer at a slight angle for a smooth transition.
The GroinGuard blade is safe to use for trimming butt hair as well. Grooming your entire body makes staying clean easier, and you’ll be surprised at how much faster you dry off after a shower.
Try Trimming in the Shower
Trimming in the shower is convenient. Your body gets clean simultaneously, and you don’t have to spend time cleaning the bathroom. If you’re worried about the drain getting dirty or clogged with hair, you can place a drain strainer.
Different people experience trimming in the shower in different ways. Some find the trimmer glides more easily and cuts hair more effectively. Others say dry trimming is more skin-friendly. Try both to see which feels better for you and for your skin.
Shave Regularly
If you choose to use a razor for shaving your pubic hair, don’t let the hair grow too long. The longer the hair gets, the more laborious shaving becomes. Maintaining a regular grooming routine is difficult at first, but it’s rewarding. Luckily, trimmers don’t have this problem and are equally effective regardless of hair length.
