Best way to shave your pussy

Shaving your pubic hair may seem like a straightforward procedure — razor, shaving foam, done, right? It's pretty common for people to rush shaving, and we bet if you've ever cut your legs while de-fuzzing that area, it was the reason. But tiny nips on your pins don't really compare with the pain you can encounter if you are careless with your pubic hair. In JAMA's study, laceration was the most common injury sustained in intimate shaving, followed by burn and shaving rash, with the most common area of injury being the pubis, followed closely by the labia.

Some people, including both men and women, don't enjoy having hair on their genitals. This is completely normal, but if you've never shaved this area before, read down below to see the safest way to complete this task. To shave your pubic hair, start by trimming your hair with an electric trimmer or a pair of scissors, since a razor will quickly get clogged if your hair is too long.

It should be a simple process. But that logic is just so wrong for so many different reasons, the first being that your pubic region is extra sensitive compared to anywhere else. Some people may have been lucky and had their mom, aunt, or older sister divulge to them all the dirty details. I, on the other hand, had to figure out all of the ins and outs of how to shave my pubic area all by myself.
