" My guy wants me to shave down there. Is it safe, and what&amp;#039;s the best way to do it? Shaving your pubic hair is as safe as shaving any other body part. Plus, going bare down there has certain pluses: You&amp;#039;re more sensitive to stimulation, and the feel \u2014 not to mention the sight \u2014 of a manicured mane can send a guy&amp;#039;s libido skyrocketing. Whether you do the shaving solo or make it part of foreplay and have your man help you defuzz, take it slow so you don&amp;#039;t nick the sensitive skin. Before you start to shave, trim the hair with a manicuring scissor. Next, take a warm bath or shower to soften the remaining pubes so they are easier to remove. (Covering the area for a few minutes with a warm, wet washcloth will also do the trick.) Then, smear on some shaving gel or lotion, but be careful not to get any inside your vagina. When you&amp;#039;re ready to start shaving, get into a comfortable position. You can lie on a towel with your legs spread if your guy is helping you out; otherwise, stand in the shower with one leg on the edge of the tub. Make sure you use a new, i.e., sharp, razor and hold the area taut with the hand you don&amp;#039;t use to shave so the razor can glide easily. If you have sensitive skin, you&amp;#039;ll lower the chances of getting ingrown hairs or razor bumps if you shave in the direction that the hair grows. You&amp;#039;ll also have to figure out how much hair you want to remove. You can simply tidy up the region, leave a landing strip or go completely bald. If you decide you like having a cropped private area, you may want to consider other pubic-hair removal techniques, such as waxing, electrolysis or laser hair removal. While shaving is the cheapest solution, it requires the most upkeep, and the less-than-sexy stubble that results from regrowth can be pretty itchy. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
