In anticipation of getting a pump, I thought I would trim first to see how that works before I defoliate the forest. Didn't want to spend a lot of $$ so have been strolling the shaving aisle of different stores when shopping there. Last week I found this Ear, Nose and Brow Groomer at Walgreens http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/wahl-e ... 16-product. This item is sold in the store only (not available online from Walgreens).

Did a quick search and Wally's has it in store only, but Target has it in store and on-line.. http://www.target.com/s/ear+nose+wahl?r ... 004a87ab0e

Amazon has the trimmer also, but more expensive. Ebay was listed, but did not look at listing. For $10 in store it was worth a try.

It works great!! I used the largest attachment and took my time. Even though it says "water proof", who knows? Before showering, I trimmed around and about all the 'bits' and was very pleased with the results. Another plus; now my wife won't chase me down with some big-a** scissors to trim my nose hairs!

TP,

I suppose an electirc shaver like you have got will do for light trimming. I have always had the willies about power tools with sharp blades being close to Willy -- and of getting nipped during a moment of inattention.

I suppose having a sharp razor might be considered no better, but at least it makes no noise.

I use a Schick Quattro blades -- which are 4 superfine blades in the standard Schick holder -- very hard to get nicked.
But be warned that just like shaving your face with a blade -- pubes skin has to get used to a blade and you will have some rash and rawness for a while .. like a year maybe!!! ok maybe less.

I have been manscaping for 4 years now and don't get any red rash or ingrown hairs -- but if i skip a whole week it can be getting back to a little of that. So if you go the shaver route don't be discouraged by the first few weeks results -- just keep on going.

Also having a small or none fatpad also helps in that area since you can see what you are doing and without interfences from any skin folds etc.

I use a Norelco Body Groom. It is specifically designed for manscaping. It is battery operated and is safe for use in the shower. I bought it on line for about $20. I have used it for over two years without any issues.

I was looking at the Norelco Body Groomer (model 2040) priced at just under $70. What I bought worked fine. Don't want to shave if I can help it. Unlike some, I do have a belly and don't feel real confident about not seeing where the razor (safety or not) is going.
