Dick_Short: Last november, RPNFbyWIJ asked: "Is a razor necessary? Couldn't one just go use some Nair or something?" Dreamer reported that he had left Nair on for 5 minutes and acquired a white, hairless patch.
I, on the advice of another guy online, have for a few years happily used a thick lotion called Magic Fragrant Cream Shave Razorless Beard Remover to remove the hair from my balls. One source is
www.texasbeautysupply.com. It's intended to take off black guys' beards without causing ingrown hairs (as shaving can do when that hair is very curly). It *will* burn if left on too long--never very badly, but then I've never missed the timing by much. I'd start with the minimum 6 minutes and work up to the maximum 9.
After I'd bought it locally and before I found it again on line, I tried some variety of Nair. It was almost totally ineffective.
I should note that I'm neither young (at 55) or hung (at 4.5" with balls to match). I don't see why that would make any difference, except in the amount of product used.
