Here's my grooming tip of the day for the guys (or girls for the bikini line). If you want a smooth set down there (nothing wrong with that) don't shave or wax, but get them sugared.
The difference between Sugaring and Waxing is (taken from a friend's blog that convinced me to try):
* wax has to be much hotter than sugar
* wax tends to cling to the skin, and rips off skin as well as hair, sugar sticks mainly to the hair and takes off very little if no skin.
* If you put the wax on, rip one strip and think "OMFG WHAT WAS I THINKING STOPSTOPSTOP!!" ....... too bad.
The only way wax comes off is pulling it, or re-heating, which MAY or MAY NOT work.. depending on the wax, the sea level, and your pain tolerance...because who wants to REMELT wax on their skin?... where as sugar can just be washed off.
* waxing can contain some strange ass chemicals and mixes, where as sugar is white sugar, honey and a citrus base of a sort to keep the stuff from going wonky
