Nowadays, more and more men are trying to pay attention to the intimate hygiene of their body. Gone are the days of hairy pubes. Although there are still guys of the old school left. If they think that this makes them more courageous or brutal, then they are deeply mistaken. The sign of a real man is not hairy balls, but physical development, practicality and intelligence. The strength of a modern man, in our time, for the most part, is not even in physical development, but in intellectual development. The times when men went after deer with an ax are long gone; today you need to think with your head in order to feed your family. But our article is not about what kind of breadwinner a man should be, but about his genitals, and more specifically about his eggs. Although not steel, they are similar to them in that they lack vegetation.
Men are increasingly beginning to wonder whether they need to shave their balls, and why, one might ask, do this? Below we will answer all the questions related to shaving your balls, the benefits, what stops guys from choosing to shave their scrotum, and most importantly, how to shave your balls.
Why are men afraid or reluctant to shave their balls?
Part of the answer to this question is written above. Most normal guys believe that this is an activity for homosexuals or the prerogative of the female half. They think that vegetation makes them men. But is it? The films show great sages with long beards who know everything in the world and everyone turns to them for advice. In real life, everything is a little different; if you grow a beard, then, alas, it will not make you smarter. But your person will definitely become more stupid in the eyes of others. The same goes for eggs. Hairy balls will not make you a man if you are not one of the above points. One is not born a man, one becomes one.
Should you shave your balls and what are the benefits?
Unlike cats, men shave their balls for no reason. Well, maybe there are those who shaved their balls because they were bored. But the majority pursue certain goals. Let's start in order. Not many women like penises protruding from the impenetrable thickets of wild vegetation in the groin. The desire to give a blowjob to a guy with a hairy penis and unshaven balls is significantly reduced. Few people would like to constantly spit and pull out stuck hairs from their teeth with their teeth. Some representatives of the opposite sex are so squeamish that they may even refuse to give you anything at all. But what the hell do you need a penis for if it’s not for its intended purpose? It is necessary to introduce new directives in personal hygiene and start shaving the balls. It’s not worth listening to the opinions of men, and even discussing this issue with them; you won’t go to bed with them. If so, then sorry...
Besides the fact that shaved balls look, at least for women, more attractive, there are also other reasons why savvy guys shave their balls - this is hygiene. Bacteria linger on the hair; add high humidity and temperature in this area and the development of all sorts of nasty things is guaranteed. Of course, this does not mean that if you don’t shave your balls, they will fall off - no, they will just sweat and stink. And hair sometimes tends to curl and cause unpleasant pain. Sound familiar?
Methods for removing hair on eggs
If you still decide to join the ranks of the shaved egg guys, then welcome, and now we will tell you about the arsenal with which you can remove hair from your Faberge. There are quite a lot of methods and besides shaving there are a number of others.
The main methods for removing vegetation on eggs:
- Shaving is perhaps the most common and inexpensive method.
- Depilatory creams are a less common, but at the same time quite fast and convenient method, although it has its own characteristics and nuances, it may not be suitable for everyone
- Epilation is rarely used in cases of intimate areas, as it is too painful and causes irritation and inflammation of the skin for many people.
- Waxing – like hair removal, this method is painful, so not many people resort to it. But if you are a masochist, then you can try it, below we will also talk about it
- Laser hair removal is an exotic method. As a rule, it is performed in specialized clinics, and the price is steep. We probably won’t dwell on it.
Do men shave their groins?
In order to answer the question of whether men shave their groins, let’s take a short excursion into history.
The practice of removing pubic hair for men dates back to the beginning of our society. The procedure was accomplished in a variety of ways, including the first razors made of silicon and shells, and later of metals.
For example, in Ancient Egypt, it was customary for people from high circles to remove hair from the entire body, including intimate places. To do this, the Egyptians used razors made of bronze and precious metals, and also carried out depilation using wax, resin and other means, or simply pulled out hair in unwanted places.
Also in Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome, having hair on the body was considered the prerogative of the lower classes; the nobility preferred to get rid of vegetation using razors made of copper or bronze, or with the help of special tweezers, and hair in the intimate area was considered a carrier of diseases, so they even preferred to remove it with the help of a servant, so as not to touch with your own hands.
In ancient India, it was also customary for the upper classes to carefully monitor hygiene and remove hair on the body and face.
In Islam, for both men and women, removing hair from intimate areas is mandatory to maintain hygiene and health.
As you can see, from time immemorial, shaving the pubis has been a completely natural thing for men, so we think you will no longer have any questions about whether it is normal for a man to shave his groin. Normal and more than that, the men of Ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome and other ancient civilizations will confirm.
How to shave eggs?
Many men prefer this method of removing hair from eggs. How much? Yes, everything is simple, you don’t need to go shopping in search of special products, and for shaving eggs it’s enough to have the same accessories as for the face. Plus, if you're shy, no one will suspect what you're up to.
Let's divide the process into several stages:
- Wash your scrotum well first. It is advisable to take a bath to make your hair softer
- Then coat the eggs with shaving gel and wait a while. Do not use gels and foams that have a refreshing effect; the skin in these areas is very delicate and you can get a cosmetic burn. The eggs will burn for a while
- Get a new razor. Do not use disposable machines, they are dangerous. You need to shave extremely carefully, lightly touching the skin so as not to cut yourself. Pull the skin a little to shave hair better and again reduce the risk of injury
- When the job is done, wash your equipment again and apply after-shave gel. Do not use lotions containing alcohol, which dry out the skin, and especially not cologne. Otherwise, the eggs will simply burn! And besides, there will be irritation
Egg depilation
These procedures are carried out using special creams. If previously they were intended primarily for the legs, today they are also available for intimate areas. The advantages include ease of use, as well as the fact that the hair does not begin to grow quickly and is soft.
But there are some peculiarities of these products; they can cause an allergic reaction, so they are not suitable for everyone. Before use, check for reaction. To do this, apply a small amount of cream on your hand and wait, if there is no redness or stinging, then you can use it.
Epilation of eggs
Here a special device will come to the rescue, which plucks the hair along with the root. It is worth noting that the procedure is extremely painful, but the reward for suffering will be that the hair will not appear again for the next 2-3 weeks. In addition to hellish pain, the disadvantages include the fact that there is a high probability of irritation. But with each subsequent use the pain becomes less and less.
Removing hair from eggs with wax
Nobody says that this method will be more humane and painless than the previous one. You still have to grit your teeth. The idea is that wax is applied to an area of skin, then it hardens and must be removed with a quick movement. It is sold both in the form of a paste and ready-made strips. At the end of the procedure, you will receive perfectly smooth eggs.
As you can see, hair removal from the scrotum is quite relevant today. Today, most of the male population of the planet pays attention to this issue. A shaved scrotum is much more advantageous in terms of hygiene and aesthetics, as well as ease of use. For women wondering if all guys shave their balls, the answer is - not all, but many.
The site about poop is on air and we wish you good luck in the fight against vegetation on the scrotum and get by with little blood. Conquer women's hearts with the new look of your genitals.

Perineal hair removal for men
Elihu Vedder (1836−1923) “The young satyr Marsyas charms the hares with his game,” 1878 In its structure, the male perineum is completely analogous to the female. Hair here in both sexes has the same function: thick, but rarely growing hair, prevents the formation of skin folds, in which high humidity creates conditions for the development of bacteria and the occurrence of diaper rash. (The protective role of hair in modern humans has been replaced by clothing.)
Due to the scaly structure, hair is able to absorb moisture and retain odors - I already wrote about this in an article about armpit hair removal. From a hygienic point of view this may not be desirable. Absolutely any hair removal is possible for hygienic and aesthetic reasons. Medical indications for hair removal (folliculitis, upcoming surgery) usually involve laser or electrolysis.
The list of methods is given in the table:
Method | Effect | Soreness | Is it difficult to do it yourself? | Peculiarities | Post-procedure care |
Trimmer | 1 day | 0 (not painful) | easily | Incomplete removal of the rod. | Not needed |
Shaving | 1-2 days | 0 (not painful) | for a long time | Possible cuts, dry skin, and ingrown hairs. Contrary to popular belief, your hair will not grow thicker. | Not needed |
Depilatory cream | 1-2 days | 0 (if not overexposed) | easily | Possible burns and dry skin. Doesn't work on thick thick hair. | Not required |
Plucking | 1-2 weeks | 3 (tolerable) | a very long time | Possible ingrown hairs, risk of bruising (you need to stretch the skin). | Not required |
Waxing/sugaring | 1-3 weeks | 4 (very painful, but not for long) | not possible (unless you are an acrobat) | Ingrown hairs, risks of hematomas, gradual weakening and deformation of the follicles, can only be done on the pubic area yourself if you know how to make hot wax. | Medium difficulty |
Photoepilation | 2 weeks - 6 months | 2 (tolerable) | it is forbidden | Burns; reduction in hair thickness. Photoepilation is sold as a complete analogue of laser hair removal, but this is not entirely true; There will be a separate article about this someday. | Medium difficulty |
Laser hair removal | about a year | 3 (tolerable) | it is forbidden | Burns; reduction in hair growth density and thickness. | Medium difficulty |
Electrolysis | "forever" | 5 (usually with anesthesia) | it is forbidden | Scars and age spots are possible, without care after the procedure - folliculitis. Hair is not restored. Hairs are removed one at a time (slowly!). Read more about the procedure for electrolysis in the scrotum. | High difficulty |
A couple of notes about the table:
- In the genital area, the skin is thin and sensitive. Therefore, when plucking hair, the skin is stretched, otherwise bruises may form.
- On average, the closer the hair grows to the base of the penis, the more painful it is to remove it. The degree of pain varies from person to person.
- Pubic and scrotal hair grows in different directions, so when waxing or sugaring, specialists apply the paste in small portions.
- Classic laser hair removal (Alexandrite laser, diode lasers, Nd:YAG lasers) is not performed on light (red) hair and/or dark skin. Reddish hair and strong skin pigmentation in the perineal area are common.
- The estimate of the duration of the effect is, of course, fair on average. For example, the percentage of hair restoration after electrolysis is so low that it is called a method of permanently destroying hair, but individual hairs grow back over time.
In beauty salons, the procedure is usually referred to as “male intimate hair removal.” Clarify what is hidden behind this name: sometimes they mean only what protrudes beyond the line of the swimming trunks, sometimes only what is visible from the front (without the intergluteal fold and scrotum). Complete hair removal from the area is sometimes called a Brazilian or Hollywood bikini.
