I Learned the Hard Way Why Razors Don’t Belong Down There
40-year-old man’s honest journey from razors and regret… to a trim that actually feels safe.

I’ll never forget the facebook post that changed how I trim my balls forever.
I didn’t always hate grooming.
But at one point, it became something
I actively avoided.
Not because I didn’t care,
but because every time I tried,
the same thing happened.
Cuts.
Redness.
Burn that lasted for days.
And the worst part?
I thought this was just… normal.
At Least That’s What I Told Myself
I used razors because
that’s what I’d always used.
Everyone uses razors, right?
Sure, they’re sharp.
But that’s the problem.
They’re sharp where they shouldn’t be.
I tried being more careful.
Slower strokes.
Less pressure.
Didn’t matter.
Every shave felt like rolling the dice and losing.
So I Started Looking for Anything Else
First came the “body hair trimmers.”
You know the ones :
overhyped, overpriced, and supposedly “safe.”
They still nicked.
Still irritated.
And half of them felt underpowered anyway.
Then I tried hair removal creams.
Big mistake.
Let’s just say… I won’t be doing that again.
At that point, I honestly thought
about just letting the bush grow.
Until I Saw a Post I Wasn’t Supposed to See...
Late one night, scrolling Facebook,
I saw a post from this one guy.
He was talking about cuts on his public area.
That same frustration
I’d been dealing with for years.
But then he said something that stopped me.
“This is the first thing I’ve used that didn't cut me down there.”
I almost kept scrolling.
But then he explained why.
Why Razors Fail — And This Didn’t
Razors were never designed
for soft, sensitive skin.
They scrape and drag.
They punish mistakes.
This Ball trimmer was different.
No exposed blades.
No direct contact with skin.
Instead, it used a skin-safe protected edge designed specifically for your public area.
That was the moment I realized something:
Maybe the problem wasn’t me.
I Gave It One Shot
I wasn't expecting much.
At my age, you've tried enough things to know when something's probably just hype.
But after the first time using it, I could tell right away.
No irritation.
No razor burn that usually sticks around for days. And no nicks - which at 54, you really want to avoid down there.
I Checked everything out afterward, and it was just... normal.
Clean, comfortable, no issues.
And Honestly?
This is the First time I've used something like this
and didn't spend the next day regretting it.
Then Something Unexpected Happened...
A few days later, during "bedtime", my wife noticed.
She didn’t say much, just smiled and said,
“That looks way better.”
This was enough.
Why I’ll Never Go Back
ManMade isn’t just another trimmer.
It’s the first thing that made me feel
put together down there.
I don’t overthink grooming anymore.
And I definitely don’t hate it.
But the best part?
My wife noticed.
A Cleaner, more masculine look and
Way more confidence.
And when I started feeling confident,
intimacy stopped feeling awkward
and started feeling exciting again.
I’m not shaving out of fear anymore.
I’m trimming because
it actually makes a difference.

Used to always nick myself with razors so I’d avoid shaving altogether. Gave this a shot and honestly it’s way better than I expected. No cuts so far.

I’ve got super sensitive skin and razors were a nightmare. This is the first trimmer I’ve used that doesn’t leave me red and irritated after.
