I like the multi-blade razors with 4 or 5 tightly packed blades the best. The closer the blades are to each other, the less likely that the little bumps and wrinkles of my scrotum will go between the blades and get cut. The more blades, the tighter they're spaced, in my experience.

I think you would be better with an electric clipper versus a blade. I think you are more prone to ingrown hairs with a blade, and I wouldn't want to start an infectious process in the area after an implant.

I hate the stubble that electric gives. Since I hang around my home nude, I'm frequently sitting at my desk with tweezers, plucking hairs from my pubes and scrotum. Anything short of "smooth" bothers me and the Philips/Norelco body trimmer just doesn't cut it (but it *DOES* cut my scrote if I'm not careful!)

I'm a prime candidate for laser or electrolysis. I've tried the adhesive hair removal strips and "waxing" but don't get sufficient removal to suit me, and constantly pluck hairs afterward.

What about the hair removal creams like Nair and Veet? Do they affect the area of implant?

Hair removal creams are caustic because that's what it takes to dissolve hair. That caustic nature can cause skin reactions and blistering or rash, all of which I'm not to inclined to want to experience even as an experiment. Others have reported that as little as a minute or two plus or minus can make the difference between removing the hair or not, and also make the difference on whether the skin has a reaction or not.

Oriental spa. She'll wax you and pluck you and then use a cream. And yes, men have orgasms during this. She just wipes it up and continues.
