I have hair that grows quite far up the shaft. This is what I do:
1. Have a few drinks to numb your senses.
2. Wait for the alcohol to set in. Check out Thunder’s for a bit.
3. Queue up the podcast/streaming radio/whatever to listen to. I prefer sports talk radio. Maybe you like NPR or music. Find whatever will keep you amused.
4. Sit down in a place with ample lighting shining on your crotch.
5. Tweeze all the hairs on your shaft and the base of your penis. It helps to hold skin tight when pulling, as the hair will extract more easily. This will take a while, but you will be amused by your entertainment selection in the background and the booze will dull the pain and make the time pass more quickly.
6. Smile and admire your hairless penis.
This is a 100% serious post. I just completed this process and I recommend it for anyone who feels that shaving, while fast, is nevertheless an incomplete solution.
