Personal hygiene tip for a guy.

Dear Jacqui,
I am very consciences about my personal hygiene. Recently, during some pillow talk, my fiancee commented that I could give my private parts a little more attention.

This has prompted me to remove the hair around my rectum and possibly my testicles. How is it best to do? I remember Nair commercials back in the 80's. Is that or some similar product still available? Is a product like that a good alternative? I believe shaving is out of the question. I appreciate your advice.
Alfred.

Dear Alfred:
Yes, Nair is still available but should not be used in the rectal area since it contains chemicals that are too irritating to be used in the intimate area.

The safest way to remove hair in the intimate area is with a good pair of small scissors and the help of a large magnifying mirror which allows you to see where to cut without getting into trouble. Don't cut it too short otherwise you will experience itching due to regrowth. Just a trim should do the trick. The mirror should have at least 4 times magnification and can be bought at any beauty supply store.

Then place it on the seat of the chair and raise your leg over it so you can go about your task. But we also advise that before "pillow talk" you might wash your intimate area with Very Private Body Wash. It is gentle but thorough and contains no fragrance or chemical dyes so it won't irritate even the most delicate tissue.
