Hey all!

Just a quick question about hair removal.

I have quite long hairs on the underside of the shaft of my penis. I read this was common in circumsized males when I first noticed them but I would prefer it if I could remove them.

So is it safe for me to use hair removal cream on my penis or not? Plucking is the only other method I can use and it can take quite a lot of time doing it that way.

I have read about laser hair removal there but I would prefer plucking than paying for hair removal.

Thanks in advance.

It depends on your skin type. Use it a little bit and see if your skin gets irritated. Usually it won't.

But I have to tell you, it doesn't remove man hair completely. I used it a few times. It didn't work. Those creams are meant to be used by women with coarse hair.

By the way, why do you want to remove your hair? Do you realize that women prefer their men to have hair? It's a truth. Man hair is a sign of masculinity, which arouses women.

Just keep your hair trimmed and tidy.

I don't really know much about hair removal cream so I didn't know it would leave stubble.

Surprisingly, plucking doesn't hurt there in the slightest. It is just a pain having to do it every couple of weeks because they are harder to grip than normal hairs.

Thanks for the help everyone.

No, don't put that stuff anywhere near your penis.

Just go get laser treatment and have it permanently removed.

Do some research on the risks but to my knowledge their minimal.

It'll cost a couple of hundred bucks but it'll hairless for good, so I'd say the cost is worth it.

Personally I prefer to trim those hair down tight but still have softness and not become hard stubble.

person12345 agony auntI would say no, but women use it on their outer labia sometimes (they're not supposed to, but some do) so do a small (very small, like dime sized) test patch first.

As a woman I would find stubble on a penis way more of a turn off than hair. Stubble hurts, hair does not.

Fatherly Advice agony auntWhat I'm trying to figure out is why you would want short bristly hairs there.

But, seriously, there are hair removal creams made for the bikini area. They are gentler. Follow the directions. test on a small area first.

Personally I wouldn't put that stuff there. first, it will irritate it. Second when it starts to grow back in it is going to be itchy, scratchy, and pretty much impossible to live with.

On the other hand if you have been plucking there perhaps you have a very high pain tolerance. . . .

I wax, used to pluck. Shaving can work as well.
