    I have left my hair to grow quite a lot, as I didn't know how to get rid of it. What should I do now?
    Community Answer
    Carefully trim it first with scissors to less than half an inch. You may need a mirror to see what you're doing and so you don't get too close and cut yourself. Then shave. Baby oil after will help soothe the skin of any irritation.

    Waxing or shaving both work, but waxing is easier and lasts longer. Shaving takes more work, but is an option if you can't wax.

    I want to shave my public hair area, but I don't want it to be painful. Wax and sugar are painful, and shaving causes my skin to be uncomfortable and itchy. What should I do?

    Exfoliate first, and use shaving cream to lubricate, not soap. Baby oil after the shower will soothe the skin and help with irritation.

  • Question
    I have hair around the butt area and in the actual bum itself. I have shaved the part closest to my actual hole, but it is prickly. What is the best way to remove butt hair leaving a soft cheek?
    Community Answer
    Waxing is probably the easiest and softest thing you could do, but it does hurt and is expensive. Using shaving cream or shaving in the direction the hair grows is probably the best way to do it.

    What's better for a man to use, a depilatory cream or an epilator? I could use my electric razor but it takes too long and is risky because I'm slightly clumsy.

    A depilatory cream would be better, as they're easier to remove hair with. Just make sure to test it out on a patch of skin beforehand, to ensure that you're not allergic to the depilatory. If it works without irritation, apply it and let it take the hair off!

    Electric clippers are easier and safer to use, like the brand Wahl. There is one that has a bigger and smaller clipper, making it suitable for varied uses.

    Yes, you will need to remove your clothing as they will need to be able to access your butt hair in order to shave it. They cannot shave you through your clothing.

    The only options are waxed by a professional or laser if you want it gone. You can also have it bleached; then it’s not as easy to notice.

    So is waxing the only quick and efficient way of getting ride of it for good, or can I just shave?

    Whatever you do, shaving is not an option. You can wax, bleach or laser the area. Ingrown hairs are almost a guarantee in that area if you shave which will end up running you the risk of infections.

    If it is my first time removing hair from my butt, would if be wise to use depilatory cream?
    Community Answer
    Due to the sensitivity of the area, there is not any type of cream on the market that would be okay for your butt. What ever you do shaving is not an option. You can wax, bleach or laser the area. Ingrown hairs are almost a guarantee in that area if you shave which will end up running you the risk of infections or just an embarrassing itchy bum!
