Choosing the Best Memory Card For Your Digital Camera

Posted by season on January 16, 2012

Which brand of memory card should I buy? Does it make a difference? How big of a card do I need? Is one large card better than multiple small cards? Does the speed rating of the card matter? This article was written to help answer these exact questions.

Cameras and lenses can be easily replaced, especially if they are insured. Those images from the three-week safari, your relatives wedding, or your summer long European tour, simply can’t.

Memory Card Reliability

Choosing the Best Memory Card For Your Digital Camera

The first thing to look at is the memory card itself. Most entry level and amateur level cameras use SD (Secure Digital) memory cards. Most professional and prosumer cameras use CF (Compact Flash cards). In general, Compact Flash cards tend to cost more, but offer higher read/write speeds, larger capacities and be less prone to failure than the Secure Digital Cards. This article will focus on those two card types.

While there are many manufacturers of memory card out there, the top tier, and the choice of the vast majority of pros, are SanDisk and Lexar. These are also the only two brands than Nikon tests with and recommends.

SanDisk claims a MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) of over 1,000,000 hours – that’s almost 115 years before the average card fails. Their cards are rated for over 10,000 insertions. A sophisticated defect and error management system can rewrite data from a defective sector to a good sector on the fly. SanDisks built in Error Detection Code and Error Correction Code to try to recover corrupted data automatically.

The regular (blue) SanDisk CF card has an operating temperature range from 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F). The Extreme III cards are rated with an operating range of -25°C to 85°C (-13°F to 185°F). They can withstand a shock of 2,000G (or about a 10 ft drop onto a concrete floor). Hard-drives can only withstand a 200-300G shock – a drop of less than 2 foot.

SanDisk quote less than 1 non-recoverable error in every 10^14 bits read (or one error for every 12.5 terabytes of data – or one out of every million 12.5Mb RAW files, or one out of every three million Fine JPEGs).

Overall the reliability from their Compact Flash cards is significantly better than even the best hard drives on the market today.

One important note: there are many fake SanDisk cards in the marketplace. Some of these are cheaper manufacturers cards with SanDisk stickers and packaging. Some are custom made with no quality control and put into SanDisk looking boxes. Our best advice, is to only buy from a reputable retailer like Amazon.com or BHPhotoVideo.com, and avoid buying memory cards that appear too cheap, are for sale on eBay, or some market stall while traveling etc – stick to reputable sources that are authorized dealers.

However, even with the best cards, errors do still occur. There are many, many millions of these cards in circulation today. Look at any DSLR internet forum, and you’ll find reports of lost images. Most of these you’ll note are either with cheaper cards, potentially fake SanDisk or Lexar cards, or caused by user error. If you remove the card from the camera before the camera has finished writing the data, you’ll lose images that the camera hasn’t completed writing. It’s very easy to accidentally format a card, especially if you use multiple cards. There are reports of certain software applications importing the images from the card, then the user deleting the card, only to find that the application only imported the thumbnail JPEGs that were embedded into the RAW image files, not the actual RAW image files. In virtually all these cases, most of the images are recoverable using data recovery software.

Bottom line, trying to save on a memory card for a camera/lens system that costs hundred or thousands of dollars makes very little sense. If you stick with the top tier brands, memory cards are very, very reliable, and they are far from the weakest link in the typical users workflow.

Card Sizes: One Large Card vs. Multiple Small Cards

How much card space you need depends on what format you shoot (RAW files are significantly larger than JPEG’s), and how many shots you are likely to take between getting to a computer to clear off and backup the cards. If I’m traveling, I’ve usually got a laptop with me so I can backup my cards every evening. Some days I may only take a dozen shots, but it’s also not unknown for me to take several thousand shots in a day if I’m at an event with a lot of action.

On a Nikon D200 containing a blank 8Gb SanDisk card, the camera claims 480 shots are available for RAW shooting. This number is usually conservative, as the size of the RAW file varies. My Nikon D300 regularly gets around 700 shots on an 8Gb card using Lossless Compressed NEF files. If you switch the D200 to Fine JPEG, it shows 1,300 shots available. If you select RAW plus Fine JPEG, it shows 354 shots available. Your cameras manual will contain a table showing similar data for your particular model.

There are conflicting opinions as to if one large card is better, or if many smaller cards are. The argument for smaller cards is, that if your card fails or you drop your camera in the ocean, you lose less data. The argument for larger cards, is card failure is very rare, and largely recoverable. You also risk a much higher chance of dropping a card, getting it wet, sitting on it, losing it, accidentally erasing it, forgetting it or leaving it in your hotel room if you are managing multiple cards.

There are other things to consider also. Uploading to computer can take a long time – putting in one large card and leaving it to upload is a lot less work than swapping multiple smaller cards and uploading each one manually. A 4Gb size card is ideal if you back up to DVD – it’s the largest card size that will completely fit onto a DVD, making the back up a simple drag and drop.

There is no right or wrong answer, we’ve standardized on 8Gb Compact Flash cards – mainly because they hold a decent number of shots and usually offer the best price per gigabyte. I’ll carry up to ten of them with me when I’m traveling. As larger cards become more common and prices drop further, we’ll go to larger sized cards. The most important thing is to make sure you have enough memory card space to last you until you can upload them to a computer – it’s better to have more than you need than not enough.

Card Speed: How Fast Do I Need?

Memory cards come in a wide range of speeds, and the faster the card, the more expensive. How fast of a card you need depends on a number of items:

  1. Is how long it takes for the images to upload to a computer important to you? If you are uploading via cable from your camera, your upload speed is limited by the camera. If you are using a CF of SD reader, you are limited by the speed of that. For the absolute fastest uploads, use a card that supports UDMA (like the SanDisk Extreme IV’s, SanDisk Ducati’s, and Lexar 300x) in a FireWire reader. For example, the SanDisk Ultra II 8Gb card claims a 15 Mb/second read speed, so that would take almost 9 minutes to upload on an optimally configured system. The 8Gb Ducati card claims a 45Mb/second speed, so would take less than three minutes to upload.
  2. Which camera do you use? The Nikon D200 does not support UDMA, so even though an Extreme IV is faster in it than an Extreme III, the card is much slower than it is in the D300 – the D300 can handle a much faster data transfer rate.
  3. How likely are you to fill the camera buffer? If you shoot landscape or take several minutes to compose each shot, then you don’t need a fast card. If you are shooting non-stop action and taking sequence after sequence at 8fps, you’ll need as fast a card as possible. Cameras like the D200 and D300 have a big enough on board buffer to store about 17 shots if you are shooting RAW. Once you’ve taken a picture, the camera writes it to the memory card and erases it from the buffer as soon as it can. Once the buffer is full, the camera won’t let you take another picture until it’s written an image to the memory card and made room in the buffer. If you are using an Ultra II card in a Nikon D300, this means you may only be able to take a shot every 2-3 seconds when the buffer is full. If you are using a Ducati card, you may still be able to manage a couple of frames a second. Then if you stop shooting, the Ultra II may take a minute or so to get the buffer cleared and all written to the card. The Ducati card will allow the camera to write the images to the card and clear the buffer in seconds.

If you take your time to compose each shot, and upload speed isn’t important to you, then memory card speed isn’t important. If you are shooting action or sports and use a rapid frame rate frequently, then you want the fastest card, and camera, that you can afford.

Data Recovery Whether you’ve accidentally removed your memory card while the camera was still writing, deleted or formatted the wrong card, or the card has developed an error, it’s usually possible to retrieve some, if not all of the lost data.

The higher end cards from both SanDisk and Lexar come with their respective data recovery software packages on CD. SanDisk’s is called RescuePro, and Lexar’s is called Image Rescue. Both are reputed to be very effective. A third part solution called PhotoRescue is also widely used and reputedly better than both SanDisk’s and Lexar’s offerings, fortunately we’ve not had the need to find out.

In Summary

Your photos are infinitely more important than your camera gear. By selecting the right memory cards and taking a few simple precautions, you can potentially save yourself from losing irreplaceable photographs due to the unforeseen events that hit us all occasionally.

Skin Care Tips for Black Men

Posted by season on January 10, 2012

Pseudofolliculitis barbae, more known to us brothas as, “razor bumps”, arise on the faces of men with coarse, wiry, curly hair. Around fifty and eighty percent of Black men live with the issue of ingrown hairs and razor bumps, every day.

Razor bumps appear when beard hairs, more often around the neck area, curl as they grow and burrow into the skin adjacent to the hair follicle. Shaving sharpens the hair ends, making it easier for them to penetrate the skin.

Reviews Shavers

Razor bumps itch, burn, can cause scarring, and make shaving virtually impossible. Many Black men have resorted to depilatory creams which seem to work a great deal better than blades. But, some depilatories, if not used correctly, may irritate the skin.

Skin Care Tips for Black Men

Some creams are able to help for some time, but sooner or later side effects for long term use catch up.

How Ingrown hairs begin

Both sexes suffer from ingrown hairs. But men tend to undergo the most because of the coarseness, or thickness of the hair follicles on the face and neck. Ingrown hairs build after the hair has been cut or otherwise removed below the skin surface. As your hair grows, it curls over inside the follicle and doesn’t make it to the surface. The result is an unsightly, “bump” on the skin.

A few razor bumps moreover form when a growing hair exits the follicle and bends back towards the skin surface. When these sharp, shaved edges of coarse hair reach the skin surface, they burrow back into the skin producing puffy, pimple like bumps to appear.

Solving Ingrown Hairs

A good number of men have found that the only solution to the dilema is tweezers. Most of us know it isn’t the best sensation, but african american men haven’t found a better solution.

Below are 8 shaving tips that may help ease some of the pain and more importantly, save your face:

Using a shaving lotion after shaving should lessen the appearance of redness. This goes for the ladies too. You can use this technique for legs, bikini lines and underarms.

Be sure to always use a clean blade when shaving with a razor. This can be properly achieved by only using new blades and throwing away ones that have been previously used three or more times.

For those of you who use electric shavers, remember to replace the rotary blades or foil after a couple of months. Of course if you’re required to shave daily, you may have to replace them sooner. This can be a headache since many rotary blade components are priced more than half of what the whole razor is worth.

While shaving with a handheld razor, always shave in the direction of hair growth. The majority of men’s face hair slant downward, so be sure to shave in that direction. This is also critical around the neck areas since shaving against the grain is one of the main causes of pointy, sharp hairs that can burrow back into the skin.

Never stretch your skin while shaving. Pulling your cheeks, chin or neck while shaving in order to get a closer shave, may cause darkness and discoloration of underlying skin tissue. This is very true for light and fair-skinned Black men who have dark, coarse hair.

Watch what you eat. Many skin irritations may subside if certain foods are avoided. Fatty foods, foods containing oils, cholesterol and sodium, can make your skin more propense to damage when shaving.

Depilatories got the work done fast, but its not a dream come true. Like razors, it can leave you redness and some irritation. Remember never to use an alcohol based cream after using a depilatory. Unless you want to feel like your face is on fire.

Grow a beard. This may not be the right solution for those required to shave daily, such as the military and other business professions. But if you can handle this style, go for it! You will totally eliminate the razor bump worries and ingrown hair issues. Even better, you can get rid of those sharp blades!

Face the Facts – The Braun 790 CC Electric Razor and Your Skin

Posted by season on January 9, 2012

The Braun Series 7 790cc shaver utilizes the company’s proprietary “Pulsonic Technology.” If you’re in the market for a dry shaver, you want to be sure it’s the most comfortable it can be… especially if you’ve used other electrics that pull and tug on your skin. Yes, this new Braun Series 7 790cc shaver is the latest in high-tech shaving. But the important question is this: will it be comfortable to use?

Do you leave home looking like you’ve just gone a few rounds with the heavyweight champ? With a red, raw face that’s been totally irritated by your old electric shaver? The Braun Series 7 790cc shaver makes shaving close and comfortable by using Gillette blade technology. Gillette’s super-sharp blades mean a much closer cut, but still with a high level of comfort on your skin.

Reviews Shavers

Only Braun has Gillette’s special blade technology – so efficient, it’s been patented. Your skin will love the new Braun 790cc shaver and here’s another reason why: Those super-sharp blades need fewer passes to give you a close shave. Fewer passes means more comfort. That means less tugging, less pulling on your skin. Sensitive skin or now, you’re going to feel the difference.

Face the Facts – The Braun 790 CC Electric Razor and Your Skin

Of course, there are some guys out there with extra-sensitive skin. Electric shavers of any kind – including the Braun Series 7 790cc shaver – may irritate or redden very sensitive skin. Still, it’s important to note that Braun engineers have really done their homework… and have tried to be sure this new model shaver can work for as many men as possible. Research has shown that for some with highly sensitive skin may not be able to use any type of electric shaver. Braun suggests as you begin to use your new Series 7 790cc shaver, hold it at a 90 degree angle to get the smoothest possible shave.

It may take a bit of time for your face to get “in the groove” with an electric shaver… but my face (and I) love my Braun. My skin is rash-free and comfortable. The Braun Series 7 790cc shaver leaves your skin smooth and comfortable, and offers a great shave.

How to Shave Your Testicles

Apply some baby powder on your testicles. This is important because you need to make sure that your testicles are completely dry from moisture and oils that your skin produces. Also, keep in mind that the best time to shave your testicles in before you shower or one hour after you shower.

Once you are done powdering up, you can start up your personal trimmer. Now, because you have a lot of loose skin around your testicles, you need to use your other hand to pull the skin tight in the area you are about to trim.

In order to get the best results from your trimmer, you should always hold it at a 45 degree angle. Go ahead and trim the pubic hair on your testicles down to stubble.

Ok, we are almost there and you are still alive! This is a good time to add more baby powder to your testicles (due to nervous sweating).

Once again, pull the loose skin tight on the area you are about to shave, start up your brand new personal shaver and shave away. It is important to always hold your personal shaver at a slight angle when you are shaving with it.

Also, move your personal shaver in small circles as you are shaving. This ensures that you get the best results from your personal shaver. Continue doing this until you are left smooth shaven testicles.

7 Persuasive Reasons Why Men Should Shave Their Privates

Posted by season on January 4, 2012

Here are seven reasons why men should consider shaving their privates. No, I’m not talking about Privates in the Army, although a “soldier” at attention, with a shiny helmet and a loaded weapon, is definitely involved.

Most men worry obsessively about the hair on their heads but rarely give a second thought to their pubic hair. Only when the time is right with that special lady do men realize they should have spent some time grooming their privates. Guys, here are 7 compelling reasons why you should groom your pubic hair or even remove it completely.

Reviews Shavers

1. Cleanliness. The crotch is a focal point for heat, sweat, and bacteria. Cropping or removing your pubic hair makes that area much easier to keep clean, and more importantly, smelling clean and manly. She’s more likely to explore that area up close if it’s well maintained.

7 Persuasive Reasons Why Men Should Shave Their Privates

2. Novelty. The contrast between your obviously adult-sized package and your new hairlessness can be quite erotic, and not just to you! Your lover may gush over the idea of making love to what now has the illusion of being forbidden fruit.

3. It’s More Inviting. If you remove most or all of her objections to performing oral sex on you, isn’t it worth the trouble? Pay special attention to removing stray hairs from your shaft. Hair in the mouth sucks, but she won’t if she finds one.

4. Don’t Forget The Scrotum. A woman’s body is playground of softness and smoothness, so don’t you think she’ll appreciate the same on you? A silky smooth ball sack invites both manual and oral caresses. She’s far more likely to play down there if she doesn’t have to use a weed-whacker to find it.

5. It’s Healthier. She’ll see immediately that you have no skin outbreaks or unwanted “critters” to hide. Furthermore, you will have greater manual sensitivity when you perform your periodic testicular self-exam. You do examine yourself regularly, don’t you? You should. The earlier you catch any problems, the easier they are to fix.

Learn more about Testicular Self Exams (TSE) at http://my.webmd.com/hw/mens_conditions/hw234856.asp

6. It’s Fun To Let Her Do It! That’s right, let her shave you! This is not only an exercise in trust, but a highly-suspenseful erotic thrill ride. The danger of an ultra sharp razor in such a sensitive area, the tension of long slow razor strokes, the aching of your pulse-pounding erection, and the foamy friction of her shaving-creamed hand on your shaft can intensify your pleasure like you never thought possible. Just don’t make any sudden moves.

And most importantly (to some at least):

7. It Makes Your Erection Look Huge. I’m not kidding – you will swear that you gained at least an extra inch in length! If your crotch is not groomed regularly, you probably have pubic hair at least part way up your shaft. Your penis “appears” to begin where that pubic hair ends. Remove the underbrush and your hidden length will be revealed.

When you’re grooming the hair on your “big head,” don’t forget about the hair on the “little head” too! Whether you do it to please yourself or a partner (or both), regular pubic hair grooming or even total pubic hair removal can spice up your love life. If you like it enough, consider permanent removal methods such as laser hair removal or electrolysis.

Note that some people experience moderate to intense itching the first few days after shaving as the pubic hair grows back. You might want your first grooming experience to be at the beginning of a weekend so you’re not squirming in your office chair all day Monday! The itching should decrease or stop if you continue to groom yourself regularly.

And if the guys in the gym locker room make fun of you, first ask them why they are checking out your package. In the embarrassed silence that follows, tell them why you did it, that you’re having twice as much sex as they are, and what she’s doing now that she wouldn’t do before! Then get ready to answer their questions.

Motorcycle Intercoms – How to Choose the Best Motorcycle Intercom For You

Posted by season on January 2, 2012

Without a motorcycle intercom, motorcycle riding is a solitary experience. When you’re riding alone it’s a good way to clear your head or get your thoughts together. But if you’ve got a passenger, or you’re riding with another biker, inevitably you’ll want to talk to them. Motorcycle intercom systems that mount in your helmet let you do that.

The problem is that there are so many to choose from in such a wide price range. It’s hard to decide which one to choose. And given that motorcycle intercoms have to work in an extremely difficult environment, choosing the right one can make the difference between enjoying your new purchase or hating it. This motorcycle intercom review will hopefully make your decision easier.

Reviews Shavers

Let’s start with a broad overview of the types of motorcycle intercoms available.

Motorcycle Intercoms – How to Choose the Best Motorcycle Intercom For You

Acoustic Motorcycle Intercom

The most basic form of motorcycle intercom is the acoustic intercom. By acoustic I mean that it doesn’t use electronics at all. It just uses hollow tubes that your voice travels through. They’re like the old ships where the captain yells down a tube to the engine room to tell them to “give it more steam.”

These systems have rubber-tipped tubes that insert in your ear the same way an earplug would. There is also a mouthpiece tube for you to talk into and all the tubes connect into a junction box.

One of the positives is that there are no batteries or electronics to mess with. That makes them very dependable. However, there is no amplification which means there is no way to adjust the volume or filter out wind noise. So at higher speeds, it will be more difficult to hear. Another problem is that some people find the “earplugs” uncomfortable in their ears for long periods.

Obviously these acoustic intercoms only work for rider-to-passenger and not bike-to-bike.

Wired Motorcycle Intercom

The next step up is wired intercoms. These systems have wires that run from the rider and passenger into a central control box that houses the electronics and battery.

Just like the acoustic intercom, with a wired system you don’t have to worry about any external interference like you do with wireless technologies, unless you add a radio handheld communicator for bike-to-bike talking to your system. Some wired units let you plug in an FRS/GMRS radio, which is described in the wireless technology section below. The radio requires voice activation for it to work.

One of the issues some people have is that the wiring can be a little bit of a pain. Every time you and a passenger get on and off the bike you have to remember to unplug the units. Depending on how you have it set up, this could be two or three plugs.

Wireless Intercom Technology

There are four types of radio technologies used in the U.S. for motorcycle intercoms. They are GMRS, FRS, FM, and Bluetooth. There are also wired intercoms that enable you to plug into a handheld Citizens Band (CB) radio that has voice activation.

Frequency Modulation (FM) radio is similar to the FM radio you listen to, but for motorcycle intercoms a narrower frequency is used. Like FM radio, these systems can produce clear sound, as long as the distance between them isn’t too great. FM radio works best when there are no obstructions such as hills between the transmitter and receiver. If long range is the most important feature, then GMRS intercoms will provide better performance.

The Family Radio Service (FRS) and the General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) are the modern equivalents to the old walkie talkies you may have had when you were a kid. FRS radios typically have a maximum range of two miles with few obstructions in between, while GRMS radios communicate up to several miles. Like FM, these are public frequencies so other people can hear your conversations and vice versa. In some heavily populated areas these FRS/GRMS radios are heavily used, while out on the open road you should have fairly private conversations.

One nice thing with the FRS and GMRS radios is that you can go to your local discount store and purchase a cheap handheld radio that will communicate with these units. If someone were following you in a car, or they had a wired motorcycle intercom system that lets them plug in an FRS/GMRS handheld radio, they can communicate with you. The downside of this was just mentioned in that there are millions of these radios out there so in heavily populated areas you’ll pick up lots of other transmissions. Also GMRS radios require an FCC license for legal use.

Bluetooth is the latest technology to hit motorcycle intercoms. Not only can these systems communicate totally wirelessly from rider to passenger, they can be used to communicate from bike to bike. Although with these systems the range is not in miles, it is in hundreds of feet. Since you are likely riding close to your buddies, this is not usually a problem. Although, range can be as much as 800 to 1600 feet.

The Bluetooth range limitation actually works as an advantage since it limits the amount of outside interference you’ll get. Also, since you must program two units to work together, you won’t pick up conversations from other people with Bluetooth devices…and they won’t be able to hear you. You won’t have to worry about your conversations listened to by anyone else.

If you want Bluetooth wireless communication there is one thing to watch for. Some units that say they are Bluetooth use FRS or GMRS to communicate bike-to-bike and the Bluetooth is just used to communicate with a Bluetooth enabled cell phone or other device.

Bluetooth intercoms also usually have some other features you won’t find on other types of intercoms such as:

  • Integrate with Bluetooth enabled cell phones and automatically answer calls totally hands free.
  • Enjoy your favorite stereo music from your A2DP enabled cell phone or MP3 player
  • Listen to the audio navigation message from your Bluetooth enabled GPS.

Some Bluetooth intercoms only have one ear speaker while others have two.

Motorcycle Helmet Intercom Features

Here are features to look for as you are shopping for an intercom to use with your motorcycle helmet:

  • If you may be riding in the rain, get a system that says it’s waterproof and not just water resistant. Some riders will put a water resistant system in a plastic baggie and that works for them.
  • You can get systems that have a headset speaker for one ear or both ears. Installation and moving the intercom to another helmet is easier for systems with only one ear, but some people want to hear sound in both ears.
  • Most systems have voice activation of some kind to keep the headset quiet when no talking is occurring. This voice activation often has the ability to be disabled and a push-to-talk switch used instead.
  • Many intercoms have noise reduction capabilities with digital signal processing to help reduce the noise they pick up from the microphone. The faster you drive, or the windier it is, the more important this feature is.
  • If you want music, look for a system that has a built-in FM stereo radio tuner or an auxiliary stereo input for a Walkman, MP3, iPod, or satellite radio unit. You can also use this input to receive driving directions from a voice prompted GPS unit.
  • Some systems mount on your helmet, while others have capability to mount on your belt clip or bike. If the system is big and bulky, you may want the ability to mount it on your bike.
  • You can integrate some intercoms with cell phones so you can talk while you ride. They require special cables or you can get motorcycle intercoms that have Bluetooth capability so they connect to your Bluetooth-enabled phone wirelessly.

Once you find the right motorcycle intercom for you, it will really make your ride with other people much more enjoyable. You’ll wonder how you got along without it. You typically get what you pay for when you buy motorcycle intercoms, but even a bad motorcycle intercom is better than none at all.

What You Ought To Know About Hair Removal For Genitals

Posted by season on December 29, 2011

Genital hair removal for men involves the removal of hair from the scrotum and penis. For women, this refers to the removal of hair from the labia minora, labia majora and clitoral hood. The process of removing genital hair requires a lot of care because the genital area has an uneven surface and thinner skin. Consequently, some of the ordinary hair removal methods you use on your pubic region may not be very applicable for removing genital hair.

Genital Hair Removers

Reviews Shavers

If you prefer to remove genital hair by shaving, the best solution is an electric pubic shaver, which will cut out the risk of hurting yourself and the other drawbacks associated with shaving with a razor. These pubic shavers usually look like mini men’s beard shavers with a rotary foil at the top. You will be required to trim the hair you want to shave till it is very short in length to enable these pubic shavers to do their job. Due to the fact that shaving does not eliminate hair from the root, you may experience ingrown hairs when they start to grow out if you do not apply special after-shave lotions to prevent the new hair from growing sideways. Additionally, shaving requires a lot of maintenance because hair grows back in just a few days.

What You Ought To Know About Hair Removal For Genitals

Genital Waxing

Waxing the genitals for women should not be a problem as waxing works relatively fine on the female genitalia. Men do not have it the easy way with waxing because most waxing professionals are unwilling to wax scrotums. The problem with the scrotum is that the skin there is too loose. During the pulling off of the wax, the skin on the scrotum tends to stretch too much, which creates a lot of pain. Hair on the scrotum is usually thicker, which makes it even harder to remove with waxing.

To further complicate things for men, most waxing professionals are women. While some men certainly do not mind a woman handling their sex organs, others may not like the idea of having a man doing the job and some men want no one to touch them. If you prefer to wax your genitals yourself, you could purchase a home waxing kit. The main advantage of waxing is it removes the hair from the root, which lasts from 3 to 8 weeks before growing back. The hair growth process can be slowed down with special hair inhibitors to extend the effectiveness of waxing. The pain factor is what prevents most people from waxing but if you think you can handle it, then go for it!

Laser Genital Hair Removal

This is most likely the best permanent genital hair removal method out there but it can be very expensive. It can take between 4 to 8 laser hair removal sessions, each of which will cost 0 or more. Moreover, you will have to be willing to “expose your privates” in front of a stranger for quite some time.

Do Genital Hair Removal Depilatory Creams Exist?

Even though there are hair removal creams for the legs, pubic region and face, there aren’t any hair removal creams (as far as I know) that claim to be mild enough for the genitalia.

How To Remove Genital Hair Without Getting Hurt?

When it comes to removing genital hair, it is important that your chosen method is both gentle and safe enough for the sensitive skin of your genitals. The most common way of removing hair on the genitals is by shaving with the current razors you possess because it is easy, inexpensive and fast. However, the use of ordinary razors may lead to bumps and nicks on the genitals causing infections, itchiness and pain. Razor blades and depilatory creams that were not created for contact with the genitals are unsuitable for genital hair removal. If you are open about shell out a bit more cash, you might want to consider getting safer substitute like waxing, laser genital hair removal, plucking with tweezers and pubic shavers.

Conclusion

I tried to cover the various means of removing genital hair as precisely and honestly as I could. As you can see, there is no defectless solution to remove genital hair. You will need to conscientiously select which procedure suits you best based on your time constraints, budget, and personal preferences.
