| Why shaving your pubic hair is not a good idea |
Most women, even men, prefer that the area down there is clean
without any hair, so shaving pubic or vaginal hair has become a common
practice today. However, there is a reason why you have pubic hair. So,
probably it is not a great idea to shave it off for purely aesthetic
reasons.
Although there are no documented studies which state whether shaving
pubic hair is good or not, however, this practice has been there for
ages and it is believed that a clean vagina is one of the many factors
that attract the partner and appeals to the man.
But there is a downside to it. The sweat glands present in the pubic
region secrete pheromones which stimulates your’s and your partner’s
sexual desires. The hair present in this region primarily locks-in the
odour and that is why every woman has a unique odour that attracts her
man. Lack of hair in the region would mean less pleasure as it fails to
stimulate your sense of smell. And, stimulating your five senses during
sex to maximise pleasure.
Also, less pubic hair can make you susceptible to various kinds of
bacterial, viral or fungal infections. In fact, it acts as a barrier to
some sexually transmitted infections like genital herpes and warts. When
pubic hair is shaved, it leaves behind microscopic open wounds over the
hair follicle which may lead to bacterial infection, scarring due to
irritation and itching
However, if you want to keep your pubic area trimmed, there is no harm
in it; you can do a little shaving by yourself, but remember, it is very
sexy if you ask your partner to do it for you. If you are the bold
type, you can do so at a hygienic parlour that offers bikini line, if
this is available where you are. This helps you to keep the area clean
without going for complete shaving.
It is also very important for you to keep your vagina clean with water
or other natural vaginal washes to keep the area clean. Avoid using
scented douches and vaginal washes that can make you dry over there.
