Nothing ruins a good shave quite like itchy skin. Sure, your face/legs/armpits/whatever else might look as smooth as a baby’s bottom (or even your own bottom, if that’s what you shaved), but it feels like it’s on fire, or worse, like there are things crawling on it...
Nearly 30 percent of guys are regularly trimming their pubes, according to one of our surveys. In related — and unfortunate — news, the number of pube-grooming injuries increased fivefold from 2002 to 2010, which, well, it sounds like a few of us could still use a lesson...
We get asked a lot of shaving questions here at Dollar Shave Club (who’d have thought?), from simple stuff like how to shave with the grain right through to the tricky business of maintaining a smooth posterior. And you know what? We’re happy to answer them. So,...
83 percent of guys trim some or all of their body hair, according to a survey we conducted a few years back. What they may not realize, though, is that manscaping is good for more than just feeling silky smooth: It reduces body odor, too. Here’s how...

First off, what the heck is a ‘ball spray’? Put simply, it’s an aerosol powder spray for keeping your groin area cool and dry. Put even more simply: It’s Ball Spray! Designed to absorb moisture and reduce chafing, it can be applied proactively in advance to help...
Pre-date manscaping is a must for many. But timing it right to avoid the seemingly inevitable prickliness that follows can be tricky. To avoid showing up to your date looking like a stray cactus, we turned to Melanie Mari, owner and trained manscaper at Bare Skin Studio,...
Ahem, cue sad music: Every hour, a taint is abandoned and forgotten. They suffer alone, hidden away in the dark, dripping with incessant moisture. They wait… and wait for someone (anyone) to care for them. But today, we’re rescuing that often overlooked patch of skin cramped between...
A vasectomy is a quick and relatively simple procedure, but it requires some preparation — namely, manscaping. That’s right, you need to shave the whole area before you go. This keeps pubic hair out of the surgical incisions afterwards, lessening the risk of your scrotum healing improperly...
I shaved my arms sporadically when I was in high school. I was on the water polo and swim teams, and I was required to shave my entire body, arms included, at the end of the seasons to increase my speed and overall slipperiness. Back then, my...
Waxing hurts: Anyone who’s seen The 40-Year-Old-Virgin knows that. But some body parts are notably more painful to have waxed than others, so to help better understand what kind of pain you might be in for, I asked Melanie Mari, owner and licensed esthetician at Bare Skin...
