Intimate Pubic Hair Trimmer

Pros

  • Specifically designed for the pubic area
  • Special comb attachment protects delicate skin
  • SkinFirst blade technology helps prevent nicks and cuts

Cons

  • Won’t completely shave
  • Some reviewers say it’s hard to grip when using in the shower

When it comes to pubic hair trimming, it’s all about balancing risk versus results. When you’re trimming or shaving delicate skin below the belt, you need to be careful, and this trimmer helps minimize risk. Specifically designed for your groin area, the blades are more closely spaced to help prevent snags, and the attachments help protect your skin from direct contact with the razor.

Testing Notes: This trimmer makes the case for using tools specifically designed for the area you’re grooming. We found in our testing that the SkinFirst technology featured in this device, which means that the blades are more closely placed than your traditional trimmer to help prevent skin from being caught between them, actually does make a difference when trimming your delicate nether regions.

All the features packed into this trimmer make the experience of trimming your groin as easy as possible and minimize risk and the skin-protecting attachment does a great job of providing further protection between your skin and the blade. The one thing to note about this trimmer, however, is that if you prefer a clean shave, this will not deliver it by itself.

While it will trim very close, even with the attachment, it’s not going to give you a smooth, clean finish. You may want to use this trimmer to trim down the carpet first before moving in with a traditional razor. Also, if you’re hoping to trim other parts of your body like your chest, you may not find this trimmer powerful enough for thicker hair.

Best Pubic Hair Trimmer for Shaving

Philips Norelco OneBlade Face And Body Trimmer

OneBlade Face And Body Trimmer

Pros

  • Can shave and trim
  • Can be used all over the body
  • Lightweight and easy to hold

Cons

  • Does not include a carrying case
  • Blades should be switched if using it on your face

Honestly, is there something the Philips OneBlade can’t do? Since its launch, this trimmer and shaver has become an iconic grooming essential, and with good reason. It’s incredibly easy to use, hardly ever nicks or cuts skin, and can shave and trim with equally good results. This version even comes with more length attachments that allow you to get your ideal manscaping results with ease.

Testing Notes: In all of our trimmer and shaver testing, no matter what kind, the Philips OneBlade stands out among the pack because it’s just so darn easy to use. Unlike your typical trimmers, the innovative head is shaped like a razor and can cut hair in both directions, making it almost fool-proof.

There is also something about the razor, even when used without any attachments, that hardly ever cuts skin, even when you’re using it on your delicate areas below the belt. This model, since it’s designed for body grooming, features more attachments than the original, but you still won’t be able to leave hair super long.

It’s best for people who like a close trim or a shave. The small size and light weight make it easy to take with you wherever you go, and we have no issue with the battery life, even though it’s not quite as long as some others on this list. We also appreciate that it comes with a second blade so you can easily switch them when you use this on your face (you don’t want to use the same blade on your face and body because of the possibility of cross-contamination).

Best Rechargeable Pubic Hair Trimmer

Manscaped The Lawn Mower 5.0 Ultra

On Sale

The Lawn Mower 5.src Ultra

Pros

  • SkinSafe blades designed specifically for below the belt grooming
  • Built-in light helps with groin trimming
  • USB-C charger

Cons

  • Does not include charging dock of previous model

This trimmer is chock-full of cool features that are the sort of thing you didn’t know you needed until you have them, like a built-in LED light for seamless groinal navigation, a travel lock to avoid slicing through clothes or other products when traveling, and a nifty low-battery light to let you know it’s time to recharge before diving into a trim.

Specifically designed for below-the-belt trimming, but able to be used on other parts of the body as well, this trimmer is fairly fool-proof and gets the job done quickly and efficiently. Not to mention, it’s fully waterproof and armed with a protective outer guard above the blades, Manscaped’s signature SkinSafe design, to minimize the risk of nicks or cuts.

Testing Notes: In our testing, we found a lot to love about the newest version of the Lawnmower. Compared to previous models, it seems to cut a little bit easier and more efficiently,y and with less snagging. The SkinSafe guard really does help in this department, though we did experience a few nicks when trying to trim too quickly (never a good idea when dealing with the groin, to be honest).

We don’t recommend using it without the guard, as the blades can be a little harsh on bare skin. However, a natural side effect of this is that you won’t ever get a completely bald shave with this device. Still, it’s surprisingly lightweight, and the added features like the built-in light make the experience of groin trimming as pleasant as it can be. It also corrected one of the more annoying issues with previous models by replacing the far too easy to accidentally click off/on button with a power button (and travel lock button below) that requires far more intention to activate.

Unlike previous models, the 5.0 does not include a charging dock, however, it is fully equipped with USB-C charging capabilities, which we much prefer to the dock. We’d argue every electric device should be required to use this much more universal charger, it saves on space by limiting the amount of wires you need laying around, and is far more convenient to replace if you ever lose the included cord.

Best Pubic Hair Trimmer for Beginners

Meridian Body Hair Trimmer

Body Hair Trimmer

Pros

  • Lightweight
  • Easy to grip and hold
  • Ceramic blades help prevent cuts and irritation

Cons

  • May need to go over one area several times to get a complete shave

Everyone has the same fear when grooming their pubic area, especially if you’re early in your manscaping journey–slicing skin. Sure, no one loves nicks and cuts on their face, but it’s much more alarming (and probably more squeal-inducing) when it happens down below. Meridian’s body trimmer is designed specifically to avoid any unwanted irritation, tugging, or nicks, due largely to its high-precision ceramic blades. It’s perfect for folks new to manscaping or those who are easily made skittish by the thought of it, thanks to its ease of use and protection against cuts.

Testing Notes: Meridian primarily boasts about two major benefits of its body trimmer: safety and speed, going as far as to claim that you can effectively give yourself a full trim in under 60 seconds. Now, while we can confirm that this trimmer is certainly powerful enough to plow through hair quickly, no one should enter a grooming situation with this expectation. We wouldn’t recommend trying to trim in this time frame anywhere on the body, especially if you want to avoid nicks and cuts.

In terms of safety, we did find this trimmer to rarely–if ever–cause cuts or irritation, though it seems an unintended consequence of that is a less precise trim. Some of our testers found that the Meridian trimmer occasionally required going over one area several times before it was fully shaved. The ceramic blades certainly help boost the safety factor, however, they simply can’t match the shaving ability of stainless steel.

Best Heavy Duty Pubic Hair Trimmer

Braun All-in-One Series 9 Style Kit

On Sale

All-in-One Series 9 Style Kit

Pros

  • Can be used on entire body
  • 40 adjustable length options
  • Sleek charging dock

Cons

  • Battery may not always last the full 100 minutes

Like most Braun grooming devices, this trimmer is immaculately designed to mow down a variety of hair lengths in a variety of hair situations. In fact, the All-In-One Series 9 is meant to handle the manscaping for every corner of your body, if that’s what you’re looking for.

With adjustments to create up to 40 separate length settings, this trimmer can erase nose hairs as easily as it can give you a full-on crew cut. Of course, this versatility of power makes it ideal for those with thicker body hair or who have long been rocking the all-natural look downstairs that other pubic trimmers can struggle with.

Testing Notes: Our testers loved the wide-ranging length options the Braun All-In-One Series 9 offers that allow for true head-to-toe grooming. The adjustable dial particularly makes transitioning from one part of your body to another seamless and quick for those in a hurry. Now, we wouldn’t necessarily recommend using the same trimmer for your face and body, but this device certainly has the agility and horsepower to handle all areas smoothly.

We also how sleek the charging dock is and, crucially, how little space it takes up on our bathroom counter. That being said, while Braun boasts about the Series 9’s 100-minute charging runtime, we found that that’s more accurately in the 80 to 90 minute range. Still an impressive burst from one charge, but not quite 100 minutes.

Best Razor for Pubic Hair Trimming

Gillette Intimate Pubic Hair Razor

Intimate Pubic Hair Razor

Pros

  • Cartridge razors have five blades for a close shave
  • Comes with a shower hook
  • Ergonomic design is easy to grip in the shower

Cons

  • Can only be used for shaving

Much like the trimmer from this same Gillette collection, this cartridge razor is specifically designed to be used on your pubic area for a smoother, more comfortable shave. There are two lubricating strips, five blades spaced close together to help prevent nicks and a pivoting ball on the head moves along with the contours of your body and shaves hard-to-reach areas.

Testing Notes: We found in our testing that even if you use a trimmer on the lowest setting, very few of them actually give you the clean-shave finish you may want if you like a hairless look and feel (this is by design, to help protect delicate pubic skin).

If you prefer a full shave, your best bet is to use a trimmer to trim the hair down close and then switch to a razor (with shaving cream) to finish the job. This cartridge razor has a few innovative features that make us really believe it was designed for pubic shaving. The five blades are spaced close together (like the trimmer version) to help prevent skin from getting caught between them. The pivoting head works well at hugging the contours of your legs and groin.

The brand says this helps minimize the number of times you need to shave the same area. This may be true, but we still found we needed to go back a few times to certain areas to make sure we got the results we wanted.

Best Disposable Razor for Pubic Hair Trimming

BIC Easy Rinse Disposable Razors

On Sale

 Easy Rinse Disposable Razors

Pros

  • Disposable razor ensures blades are always sharp
  • Easy to rinse while you go to avoid clogs
  • Two lubricating strips for a more comfortable shave

Cons

  • May need to go over the same spots multiple times
  • Not very sustainable

Using a disposable razor for pubic shaving is great because it minimizes the risk of cross-contamination, and you ensure that your blades are always sharp and ready to cut. This disposable razor has four blades with slightly more space between them to make rinsing while you go easy (and that’s an important part of pubic shaving, after all).

Testing Notes: Pros have always told us that fewer blades are ideal for pubic shaving, but we found that it’s more of a personal preference in practice. The four blades on these razors shave well but still minimize irritation and razor burn (which multi-blade razors can sometimes make worse).

Our favorite thing about these razors, though, is how they really are easier to rinse. Pubic shaving requires frequent rinsing—the coarser, curlier hairs get stuck between the blades easily—so being able to rinse quickly and often is ideal. Even rinsing every two to three strokes was easy with these and prevented pesky clogs from slowing us down.

How to Trim Your Pubic Hair

1. First and foremost, make sure you have ample time and are not rushed. This is not something you want to speed through!

2. Position yourself in front of a mirror with good lighting to make sure you have good visibility for all the crevices.

3. Get out your trimmer and choose your length. If you’re going to continue on to fully shave your pubic hair, choose a length that is long enough to shave but not too long (think a couple of days of stubble). If you’re just trimming, start with a longer length than you think you’ll ultimately want. You can always cut it shorter.

4. Apply baby powder on your pubic area while it’s dry to help soak up extra moisture and plump up the hairs.

5. Using short, gentle strokes, use the trimmer to cut the hair. Pubic hair grows in a variety of directions, so you’ll want to go slow and possibly go over the same areas a few times.

For your scrotum and shaft, go extra slow and stretch the skin to flatten it and make it easier to trim. If you’re trimming your butt, crack and perineum, you may want to place a hand mirror on the floor to help see where you’re trimming. You can also place one leg on a tub or toilet to make the area easier to see.

6. If you’re happy with the trim job, then you’re done! Hop in the shower to wash off.

7. If you’re going to shave completely, once you’re out of the shower, apply a pre-shave oil and shaving cream to the areas you’re going to shave. The key here is to not be stingy with the cream.

8. When you’re taking a razor to your nether regions, you’ll want to be extra careful. Shave with the grain of the hair in short, slow strokes. Do not, we repeat, do not rush. You’ll want to use the same stretching technique on your scrotum and shaft as you did while trimming, and the mirror is ideal if you’re taking the razor around back.

9. Make sure to rinse the razor frequently to avoid clogs and reapply shaving cream as needed.

10. Once you’re done, hop back in the shower to rinse everything away.

11. Apply a moisturizer or body oil to the area to help keep it protected. You may also want to apply a moisturizer or anti-chafe product regularly (like at least once a day) to help cut down on friction which can cause irritation on shaved skin, especially below the belt.

Why Does Pubic Hair Grow So Quickly?

Maybe you’re a regular manscaper, or perhaps you just took the plunge into trimming out your nether regions. Regardless, it seems like one truth holds true: As soon as you take off the hair, it blooms right back again.

Sure, it might seem that your pubic hair is on a steroid-fueled regrowth. But that’s actually something of an optic illusion, says Alexes Hazen, M.D., a reconstructive and cosmetic plastic surgeon at NYU Langone Health.

“People who trim or shave their pubic hair often think it grows faster than the rest of their hair, specifically the hair on their head, but this is not the case,” she says. “We simply notice hair growth most, and the speed of that growth, the shorter the hair.”

With pubic hair—and other body hair—the entire process takes about 30 to 44 days, Dr. Hazen says. That means the same pubes that started to grow will shed in about a month to a month and a half.
