💇♂️ Grooming Tools for Body and Pubic Hair
This paragraph discusses the need for proper grooming tools for body and pubic hair maintenance. It emphasizes that a single tool can be used for both, contrary to the marketing of specialized tools. The speaker advises against assuming that a tool marketed as a 'ball' or 'pubic hair' trimmer will necessarily be the best choice. Instead, they suggest looking for trimmers with specific features: ceramic blades for their sharpness and durability, adjustable blades or guards with a range of 1 to 4 mm for precision, and a good battery life, preferably a lithium-ion battery. The paragraph also warns against certain features, such as waterproof trimmers, which can be limiting and unnecessary for the task.
🛒 Recommendations for Pubic Hair Trimmers
The second paragraph provides specific recommendations for trimmers suitable for pubic hair grooming. It starts by suggesting the Meridian trimmer for its simplicity and ceramic blade at a lowered price of $50. It advises against the Meridian Plus due to its less effective guard system. Other recommendations include the Philips 7000 for its guard range and build quality, the Wahl lithium-ion trimmer for its stainless steel blade and guard range, and the Brawn 3 Series as a budget option. For those who don't mind using the same trimmer for both facial and pubic hair, the BeardScape is recommended for its ceramic blade and cutting range. The paragraph also suggests full-body trimmers like the Beard Club PT45 and the Philips 9000 for their adjustable guards and build quality. It concludes with a critique of blade subscription services, suggesting they prioritize profit over customer well-being.
🔪 Alternatives to Trimmers for Sensitive Skin
The final paragraph explores alternative grooming methods for sensitive areas, such as using cartridge razors or foil shavers, which can be safer due to their non-moving blades. It acknowledges personal preferences in grooming tools and techniques, encouraging viewers to experiment to find what works best for them. The paragraph also provides links to reviews and offers for the BeardScape trimmer and invites viewers to ask questions or share their experiences with blade subscriptions in the comments section.

if you have body hair or pubic hair that
needs to be maintained and you're
looking for the right tool that is
exactly what we're talking about today
we're going to go over some of the
considerations and features that you
should look for when buying a body hair
or pubic hair grooming tool and we'll go
over some recommendations at the end of
the video when it comes to male grooming
I think that body hair and pubic hair
can all be trimmed with the same tool
generally I don't think there's a need
for a specialty tool for any particular
part of the body and in general wide
variety of trimmers are going to work
for trimming pubic or body hair there's
just a few keys that I want to point out
that you should look for if you're going
to be using one of these tools for this
purpose so don't assume that a specialty
ball or pubic ha trimmer is going to be
the right tool for you there are a ton
of them on the market with that wording
and I think if people go searching
online and they think that okay well
that's what I'm going to do so that's
what I'm going to look for you're going
to be led astray a little bit when it
comes to the actual thing that comes in
the Box that you're going to get I think
there's some great trimmers out there
that are not marketed as pubic a
trimmers that are probably going to do a
better job than some of the other ones
that are specifically called ball or
pubic hair trimmers okay so what
features should you look for when
purchasing a ball or pubic hair trimmer
ceramic blades are fantastic I would
always look for a trimmer with a large
toothed ceramic blade there are other
trimmers that have really nice sharp
stainless steel blades and those are
usually ground into shape there's uh
other categories of blades too where
they are more like stamped stainless
blades and then also really fine tooth
specialty trimmer blades that I would
not recommend at all for ball or pubic
hair trimming so a good pubic or ball
hair trimmer should also have either an
adjustable blade or a very short range
of guards really hitting in that key
area of kind of 1 to 4 mm with a couple
adjustments in that range the reason
this is important is because with a lot
of body or pubic hair trimming you don't
necessarily want to use the trimmer at
its lowest setting for the vast majority
of trimmers on the market without a
guard they're going to cut kind of in
between that half millimet and 1 mm
range and for some people for body and
pubic air trimming that's fine for a lot
of other people you're going to get
irritation and ingrown hairs and it also
adds a little bit of safety when you are
trimming areas with loose skin if you
can snap on a guard so I think one of
the key features to look for here is
that short cutting range and some really
short guards that are included with the
trimmer all right look for something
with a decent battery because this is
also going to dictate sort of the
lifespan of the trimmer trimmers with
nickel cadum or lower Quality Batteries
that are smaller always die quicker and
these generally tend to be on a lower
price point as well look for a trimmer
with a good lithium ion battery
generally power is not going to be a
limiting factor when you're talking
about pubic or body hair Because unless
you're Chewbacca for the most part pubic
hair body hair isn't nearly as thick as
trimming a beard or trimming your head
head hair so power is not usually the
limitation for trimmers in this category
all right so what features should you
avoid in a pubic hair trimmer I think an
important feature to avoid in a pubic ha
trimmer is one that is waterproof now I
say this because you should never trim
your hair when it is wet I think it's
fine to trim while you're in the shower
just make sure you do so with the water
off because if you're trimming wet hair
you're going to have to apply a lot more
pressure which can be dangerous in
certain situations and you're also
removing all of the lubricant from the
blade there's really no need to ever
trim wet hair and I think this is a good
feature to avoid because it really
limits the size of the battery and the
motor inside of that trimmer to have
that sort of waterproof inner shell
around everything so I would put that on
the list of things to avoid also
definitely avoid very short cutting
blades so I do love trimmers like the
one blade however this is just not set
up to be a body hair or pubic hair
trimmer it's just cutting a little bit
too too short for comfort for most
people for that reason I wouldn't
recommend trimmers with very short
cutting blades trimmers with guards that
start out just in kind of that 3 or 4 mm
and higher range so if if a trimmer only
has like a 4 mm 6 mm guard for the
lowest or smallest guard size I would
not recommend that to be a pubic or body
hair trimmer you're just missing too
much of that key short range to be
really useful for this category so avoid
trimmers that don't don't have that
short range of guards one question that
is absolutely worth asking is do you
need a specific tool for trimming pubic
and body hair I think this is important
consideration because some people feel
very strongly about not using the same
trimmer uh on their face as they do
their pubic region other people don't
care at all we did a survey and found
that about 40% of guys did not want to
use that same trimmer on the pubic hair
and face totally understand understand
it there is no medical reason on why you
should do that it's just a feeling
people have so not going to argue with
that one I'm just going to say if you
feel that way that's fine you can feel
that way and you can get a separate
trimmer for your face with a lot of
trimmers there are options to get an
additional blade so you can just get two
different blades for the same trimmer if
that sounds like you and you are looking
for a pubic only trimmer here's a few
recommendations the newly lowered price
of $50 on the original merdian trimmer I
think makes it a good buy for this
category this trimmer is super simple
and it seems to work well checks the
boxes does the things fills the buckets
I I don't know however you want to say
that this thing is a simple trimmer it
has that short cutting range and the
ceramic blade so at that $50 price point
I think that makes this thing a good
purchase would avoid their upgraded
trimmer the guard system on this thing
is not nearly as good so probably skip
the Meridian plus and just go for the
cheaper original Meridian trimmer for
the pubic care only trimming option the
Phillips 7000 does not have the ideal
blade material but its range of guards
is perfect for body hair and pubic ha
trimming and overall has great build
quality the wall lithium ion trimmer has
a good blade as well this one also not
ceramic but it is a very good stainless
blade it does have a short range of
guards this one's starting out I think
at 3 mm so not completely ideal but it
gets you in that range also has a very
good build quality and overall a good
trimmer for anything on the shorter side
if you really need a less expensive
trimmer I would recommend the brawn uh 3
Series Allin one I think it's about $40
definitely not my top pick but it is one
of the less expensive trimmers so if
that's important to you I think that
Brawn will get the job done and lastly
for pubic ha only trimming I would not
recommend the r beard scape is this is
probably just a lot more trimmer than
you need for just the pubic trimming
task it'd be kind of like owning a
Ferrari but then only driving it to
church on Sunday so if you're like 60%
of people who don't have a problem using
the same trimmer on your pubic hair as
you do your body hair then I would
recommend the Bri beardscape as it does
have that ceramic blade it's got a great
cutting range on the shorter side with a
few steps in between 1 mm and 1.9 mm so
you're able to kind of pick that right
length for you of body hair again that's
a lot of that as a personal preference
some people are going to want it really
short other who struggle with ingrown
hairs and irritation might want to leave
it a little bit longer kind of in that
1.6 to 1.9 mm range there are also other
blade options available for the
beardscape so you can switch out that
blade if you don't want to use the same
blade on your face and pubic hair all
right more full body trimmers that also
work great for pubic hair on my list is
the beard Club pt45 this thing also has
a great ceramic blade it has a similar
low-end adjust adjustment range just
like the beard scape the guards on this
one start at 3 mm so it's kind of
missing a little bit on the lower end
but for a full body trimmer this is a
good option if you're okay with
adjustable guards I would recommend the
Phillips 9000 a lot of the trimmers that
have adjustable guards do have the
problem of being way too flimsy and
flexible to give you a good trim
Phillips has solved that problem with
the 9,000 making that thing super rigid
and a great amount of control on the low
end so the Philip 9,000 should be a good
trimmer overall for both facial hair and
body hair given that it does have a
pretty good range on the low end I've
tested a lot of trimmers with adjustable
guards most of them are very very crappy
this Philips 9000 is the exception okay
so what about a blade subscription for a
pubic or body ha trimmer any company
that pushes a subscription blade for
their trimmer is basically saying they
care more about their profits than they
do the well-being of their customers a
ceramic blade is an amazing amazing
blade to have on a trimmer and should
last for years so pushing customers to
frequently purchase or subscribe to a
blade replacement program is definitely
not in the best interest of the customer
if there are people out there who have
appreciated their blade subscription
please let me know in the comments but
also if there's people out there who
thought the blade subscription is a
waste of money or scam please let me
know there are some other tools that
people do prefer to use on ball hair to
keep a moving blade away from that loose
sensitive skin so that totally makes
sense and I'm and I am on board with
this there are times where a razor or
even something like a foil shaver can be
a great tool for trimming ball hair so a
trimmer blade is inherently dangerous to
lose skin no matter what any company
tells you if it's an open blade and it
can cut your hair can absolutely cut
your skin as well so always use caution
feel free to experiment with using
alternate tools I know there's a lot of
people who do prefer using a razor blade
usually sort of the the ra the cartridge
style razors that will have two or three
blades on them using that with short
Strokes is a very safe way to trim down
there also a foil shaver can be a good
option as well testing those keeps some
of these uh teeth and sharp moving
blades away from loose skin which is
always a good idea as always there's a
bit of preference built in there so see
what works best for you if you want to
review any of the recommendations you
can skip back to the chapters referenced
in the description below if you think
the beardscape is a good tool for you we
have a link and a special offer down
there if you have questions on any of
the trimmers covered please drop them in
the comments below and we will do our
best to respond oh yeah also if you do
want um more in-depth video that covers
some of those other ball trimmers that
you may have seen in search results uh
