Shaving

Shaving isn't for everyone. This is my take on it:

I can't stand to have hair between my own legs... unless I'm holding someone's ponytail like a joystick. I've been shaving myself for years. I also require it of my submissives.

You can avoid the itching and discomfort by shaving more often. Don't shave every day! I shave every other day or sometimes every third day if I'm lazy. Keep that up and you'll pass a point (after two weeks or so) where ingrown hairs and razor burn are a thing of the past.

Don't shave against hair growth directions! No, you won't get as smooth but you'll avoid more razor burn and ingrown hairs. Sometimes, depending on your skin type, you can shave in both directions and get that whole "smooth as a baby's butt" thing going on. But shave in the direction the hair grows first.

As for the hurting... again, do not shave every day. Use a quality razor and shave gel. I suggest using a twin blade razor like Gillette's sensor excel (not the sensor, it's nowhere near as gentle, use the sensor excel) or Schick's slim twin disposables. Use a shave gel, not just shaving cream.

And when you get out of the shower/ bathtub don't immediately use lotion on your pubic area. Dry things off with a towel. Then wait five or ten mins for the air to dry you more thoroughly. Then apply a small amount of lotion.
