Keeping your intimate areas clean and cared for will give you a feeling of freshness that will benefit you as much as your partner. In this article we will give you some tips on how to do it.
Steps
Method 1 of 2: For men
Step 1. The 1970s are now over, so an untrimmed or untrimmed pubic hair will give a rather archaic or neglected image of you
In any case, keep in mind that for the partner it is certainly not an advantage, so try to cut it. Do this before you shower so you can get rid of any unwanted hair.
- If you have an electric razor, position it to achieve the desired length of hair, then carefully trim off any unnecessary.
- If you don't have an electric razor, use long, pointed scissors, cutting equally to the desired length.
-
Some people prefer to completely shave their private parts. If you and your partner prefer this look, shave off!
- Moistens the pubic hair to make it softer and easier to trim.
- Cut with scissors before using foam or soap and razor on your private parts.
- Be careful. Imagine how easy it is to cut yourself if it already happens to you by shaving (which is practically a daily gesture).
- Notice that after a couple of days, the shaved areas become irritated and start to itch. So if you know you have to attend important events or meetings where it could get annoying, wait until you shave. If you can't help it, an alcohol-free moisturizing lotion can help minimize discomfort.
Step 2. Soap well
When you're in the shower or bath, lather your private parts well.
- If you are circumcised, caring for your penis is pretty easy: lather and rinse it repeatedly.
- If you are not circumcised, clean well under the skin covering the glans. Neglecting to clean this area will cause an unpleasant substance called smegma to build up. It doesn't hurt, but it's totally unpleasant as much to look at as it smells bad.
- Gently rub your penis from tip to base, not forgetting the testicles.
Step 3. Rinse the area well
Even the smell of poorly rinsed soap may not be pleasant for the partner.
Some people prefer a natural (and therefore not overly aromatic) smell of their partner's private parts. In this case, opt for a mild soap
Step 4. Wear a clean pair of underwear daily
-
Keep your underwear clean in a cool, dry area. If you prefer to use boxers, make sure they dry well when you wash them to avoid bad smells.
Method 2 of 2: For women
Step 1. Shorten the length of the pubic hair, especially in the corners
- If you have an electric razor, position it to achieve the desired length of hair, then carefully trim off any unnecessary.
- If you don't have an electric razor, use long, pointed scissors, cutting equally to the desired length.
- If you will be using a razor, be sure to moisten the pubic area a little with water first.
-
Some people like to shave their pubic hair with a variety of distinct shapes. If you and your partner agree, go for it!
Notice that after a couple of days, the shaved areas become irritated and start to itch. An alcohol-free moisturizing lotion can help you minimize discomfort
Step 2. Wash yourself daily by cleaning and lathering your pubic area intensively
Do not use soap on the lips or vagina as it may cause infection and irritation
Step 3. Rinse intensively and dry the pubic area well, in order to eliminate soap residues and avoid the reproduction of bacteria
Step 4. If you are menstruating, change your tampon regularly
Clean your private parts thoroughly after removing the tampon and before putting on the new one.
Step 5. Always use clean linen
-
Keep your underwear clean in a cool, dry area. When washing your underwear, make sure it dries well to avoid bad odors.
Advice
- Use a good moisturizer especially after shaving to keep the skin soft and hydrated.
- Use wet baby wipes, as they are suitable for sensitive skin and will prevent odors.
- To avoid cutting yourself, use hair conditioner instead of foam or hair removal cream.
Warnings
- Never use the same underwear for more than one day.
- Remember to clean your private parts in a well-ventilated area, as sweat may promote the reproduction of bacteria.
- Shaving can cause irritation and the appearance of ingrown hairs, so think carefully before deciding.
