Preparation for the procedure
Getting a haircut in an intimate area is not difficult. But you should not perform it a few days before your period, so as not to experience severe pain. The required drawing may not work out the first time; this requires some experience. But over time you can get used to it well. Step by step guide:
- Take a shower to soften your skin.
- Select the application area and remove all hair beyond it using any method.
- In the area of the drawing, the hair should be 3–4 mm.
- Apply a design to the selected area using a cosmetic pencil (you can make the design yourself or use ready-made stencils). It's best to start with simple shapes (hearts, geometric shapes, etc.).
- Remove any hair remaining behind the design line.
- Wash off the pencil.
- If there are excess hairs left, they must be removed with tweezers.
- Spray the cutting area with alcohol.
You can do the haircut with a regular razor, but it is most convenient to use a trimmer.
For the first time, do not choose complex designs, there are many simple but elegant forms.
Also prepare all the necessary materials:
- scissors;
- comb;
- mirror;
- trimmer/razor or hair removal products (gel, wax, paste, etc.);
- stencil;
- pencil;
- alcohol.
It is more convenient to do an intimate haircut with a trimmer; an attachment with a narrow tip is suitable.
Next, you need to decide whether you want to leave the pattern in a natural color or color it. Henna or basma are suitable for coloring, as these are natural dyes that do not contain chemical additives or aggressive substances. You can also add rhinestones.
The next step is choosing a design: decide what it will be like in advance, and also decide whether you will draw it yourself or buy a stencil. The final preparatory stage is taking a hot shower. This will soften the skin and you won't be in as much pain.
Rhinestones give the picture shine and an unusual look, but not every girl will decide to do this
A little history
Few people know, but intimate haircuts are not the squeak of modern fashion, but a return to the ancient canons of beauty. In Ancient Egypt, only a completely smooth body, devoid of any vegetation, was considered beautiful. And in Ancient Greece and Rome it was believed that only barbarians did not shave their body hair, and the duty of a noble patrician was to take care of himself.
And in the harems of Eastern countries, monitoring the beauty of the bikini area of wives and concubines was the responsibility of the eunuch. In the modern world, everyone has the right to decide for themselves whether to have an intimate haircut or not.
But if a girl decides to decorate her bikini area with an unusual hairstyle, in order not to achieve the opposite effect, she needs to choose the right design, select the appropriate tools and perform the procedure, following all the rules.
Methods of execution
Men's and women's haircuts are not very different. Only men have fewer methods of hair removal and the process is somewhat painful, since the skin in the scrotum area is very sensitive.
Rules for men
To create a drawing use:
- razor;
- depilatory cream;
- wax;
- trimmer.
The most convenient option is a trimmer: cutting a haircut using it does not cause pain, and the device is easy to use. There will be no problems with the cream either: just apply the product along the contour of the pattern, wait for a certain time (read the instructions carefully!), and then remove it with the special spatula included in the kit. But wax hair removal is a painful method that not every man dares to try.

Some tips for women
In women, hair in the intimate area is usually softer and more pliable, making it easier to remove. In addition, ladies are less likely to be embarrassed to go to a hairdresser for an intimate haircut. However, the methods for hair removal are similar.
Razor - a quick assistant
The advantage of shaving is a quick removal process, after which, however, irritation occurs. Until it passes, you will have to shave again. If you have already decided to shave, then give preference to machines with three or four blades and a gel strip; do not use disposable razors multiple times; make sure that the blades do not rust. Use a scrub before and a special lotion after the procedure to avoid ingrown hairs. But even this will not save you from rapid hair growth.
Read more about women's razors in the article - Women's razor: how to choose and use correctly.
A disposable razor is your personal hygiene product; you should not share it with anyone else.
Sugaring
Hair is removed using a special paste (sugar + lemon juice/citric acid + water), which you can cook yourself. The procedure is not the most painless, there is a possibility of ingrown hairs. Therefore, you need to follow the rules:
- Take a bath and scrub your skin a few days before sugaring.
- You can use an anesthetic cream (for example, Emla).
- Afterwards you cannot take a hot bath, sunbathe, go to the solarium, bathhouse or sauna.
Please note that sugar paste is applied against hair growth and removed according to growth.
The selection of pastes for sugar hair removal is impressive, all you have to do is find your own option
Waxing
Waxing is waxing. It can be hot or cold (stripes). The result after waxing lasts longer than a razor: from three weeks with cold wax and up to two months with hot wax. The downside is pain and a number of contraindications.
Preparation for waxing and care after are similar to the procedure for hair removal with sugar paste, but the process is different: wax is applied according to hair growth and removed against it.
It’s better to do waxing first in a salon, and only then try experimenting at home
Cream
Depilatory cream is the easiest way of depilation. When it gets on your hair, the cream begins to destroy it. But the effect is short-lived (five days) and you may develop an allergy to the cream. In addition, creams have an unpleasant odor, and if you neglect the instructions for the product, you can cause a chemical burn. Therefore, before use, you need to apply a small amount to the crook of your elbow, wait for the time specified in the instructions, rinse with warm water and monitor the skin. If after 24 hours itching and irritation have not appeared, the selected cream can be used.
Before buying, read everything that is written on the package: the cream should suit your skin type
Trimmer - easy shave
The safest and most comfortable method of hair removal, which is performed without prior moisturizing. An alternative option is to use a hair clipper with an attachment.
Using a trimmer for an intimate haircut, a man avoids rough contact with the skin and the damage caused by such exposure. The disadvantage of using it is that it is problematic to shave the groin to the so-called “zero”.
Stencils: a simple way for complex intimate haircuts
There are many stencil options. You can make them at home, you will need: self-adhesive film, paper, pencil, scissors. Draw any picture on paper and transfer it to film - and the stencil is ready.
Options for women
Ladies can choose any option they like:
- Classic Brazilian haircut. This is a trim in the form of a thin strip on the pubic area. It gets its name from the Brazilian women who had to shave everything because of their short skirts.
- "Runway". There is also a vertical strip left here, the width can be chosen as desired, and the top edge should be below the elastic band of the underwear.
- Light shapes: month, heart, butterfly, lotus, drop, etc.
- Geometric shapes: square, triangle.
- "Sonata". Similar to yin-yang: an even circle and an inverted drop.
- "Letter". Any capital letter, for example, a name.

- "Pussy". In the form of a cat's face or in some pose.
- "Empress". Crown image. Suitable for any figure.
- "Yin and Yang."
- "Peacock's Tail" Several lines rounded at the end.
Intimate haircuts can transform your figure, the main thing is to choose the right pattern
Men's combinations

- "Athlete". Hair is removed only in the upper part of the pubic area so that it does not stick out from under the underwear.
- "Accent". Small square.
- Car emblem.
A men's haircut in the intimate area looks aesthetically pleasing, and many girls consider it extremely sexy
. You can apply anything to the intimate area if you have a rich imagination.
Variety of hairstyles
The “Baby” hairstyle, which does not involve the presence of hair, is the simplest. But what if you want variety and some sophistication?
List of popular intimate hairstyles:
- “ Chaplin ” - a small mustache remains in the groin area (for gentlemen)
- “ Landing strip ” - the hairline imitates a path (for dreamers)
- “ Wedge ” - a section in the shape of an elongated triangle (for overweight guys)
- “ Brazilian ” - hair is removed only from the penis, scrotum and perineum (for men who are not ready to undertake serious experiments)
Complex hairstyles with figures are made with the designation of the shape - the coloring liquid is applied through a stencil or the contour is created arbitrarily.
Uncolored hair is carefully shaved off, leaving a certain image - a lightning bolt, a star, a bunny (Playboy symbol) or even a devil with horns.
Some simple rules
The procedure can be painful, so you should follow some rules:
- If the pain is difficult to bear, use a pain reliever. Cream or tablets will do.
- For two days after a haircut, wear natural underwear to avoid irritation.
- Use moisturizing and nourishing creams 4 hours after any procedure.
- Don't forget to use scrubs 3 days after waxing and hair removal.
Remember that certain hair removal methods have contraindications. Check them out.
How to do it yourself
To get an intimate hairstyle, you don’t have to go to a special salon, although this will greatly simplify the process.
Let's figure out how to carry out the procedure yourself, quickly and without consequences.
- Prepare a warm bath. You can add aromatic oils or beneficial herbs to the water. Steaming the skin is one of the most important procedures before hair removal. Everyone forgets about this, but steaming allows you to avoid pain and irritation, and a warm bath will help you relax and saturate the body with the beneficial components of essential oils.
- It will be beneficial to apply a scrub to remove dead skin. Then it will be even easier to do an intimate hairstyle.
- The ideal hair length for an intimate haircut is no more than 5 millimeters. Therefore, before the procedure, it is necessary to cut the hair with scissors to the desired length.
- If you are using a template, mark its boundaries using a trimmer or straight razor.
- Remove hair outside the contour in any convenient way. Short hair should be removed using tweezers.
- Apply aftershave gel or cream to help avoid irritation.
An intimate hairstyle is a bold step that is worth taking at least once. Shyness and complexes need to be discarded as quickly as possible, because they only interfere with personal growth and relationships with your partner. More confidence and creative thought, razor in hand and go in search of new experiments!
Safety precautions
When using any method of removing excess hair, be sure to adhere to the following rules:
- Be sure to cleanse your skin before epilating or waxing. Contaminants will not only worsen the results, but can cause irritation (at best).
- Disinfect the treated area, for example, with Chlorhexidine before and after the procedure.
- If you use wax or sugar paste, apply professional talc or baby powder to the skin so that the hairs are better captured by the product, which will help avoid breakage and bruising.
- If you use a razor, monitor its quality, otherwise mechanical damage cannot be avoided.
- Be sure to read the instructions when using depilatory cream.
- Don’t chase results in intimate haircuts and creating designs; everything will come with experience.
An intimate haircut is a great way to surprise your partner. Various types of stencils will help you with this. You can make them yourself. But you need to stock up not only with special supplies, but also with patience.
Other hair removal methods
A replacement for a razor and trimmer is epilation - a method of eliminating vegetation with the destruction of hair follicles. Several sessions of photo and laser treatment can permanently eliminate hair in the pubic area.
Depilation is also performed using a special cream that activates the chemical reaction of hair splitting. After a short exposure they are removed with a special spatula. Depilatory cream intended for other areas is not suitable for the intimate area.
The method of using thick sugar paste - sugaring - involves applying the mass to the groin area and then removing hair. Suitable for sensitive skin. It is difficult to do on your own and requires referral to a specialist.
How to cut a woman's hair correctly - step by step
To properly cut a short haircut at home, you need to adhere to the following action plan - step by step:
- Run a comb through your hair and highlight the occipital area in the shape of a horseshoe. Make a parting from one temple to the other, secure the hair on the top of the head with clips.
- At the back of the head, identify a vertical strand, pull it towards you and cut the required length, while keeping the hair at an angle of 45 degrees. Thanks to this, you can save the existing volume. This technique should also be used for further hair processing.
- Further actions boil down to cutting all the strands, trying them on with the control one.
- Comb and pull the hair in the temple area to obtain a smooth extension towards the face. This will give your hair a creative look.
- Using a parting from ear to ear, highlight a strand in the upper area of the back of the head.
- Work the hair in the same way, equating it to the control strand and pulling it at an angle. Afterwards you can move on to cutting the parietal area.
- Designate the working area using partings at eyebrow level. Select the main strand, take it away a little towards the back of the head and cut it to the desired length. Move towards the occipital region, pulling the strands perpendicular to the head. The main strand of the parietal region should be the same length as the cut hair at the back of the head. Thanks to the pull, it is possible to achieve lengthening in the bangs area. This is a great opportunity to decorate it beautifully.
- Process this area again, but at the same time separating it with horizontal partings. This will remove the angle that was formed due to the difference in length.
- Finish the hairstyle in the temple area, highlighting the strands one by one vertically.
- Comb the bangs and adjust the contour. Use a hairdryer to dry your hair, and then you can proceed to the final stage.
- In order for the hairstyle to get the necessary texture and make the styling process simple, you need to cut the ends of the hair, while holding the blades of the scissors perpendicular to your fingers. This will allow you to avoid cutting off a lot of hair and not disturbing the contour.
- Trim hair that does not fit the entire length. If necessary, you can process the bangs by making a sliding vertical cut.

Are there any contraindications?
The intimate beauty procedure is not carried out under the following circumstances:
- the presence of gynecological problems (acute and sexually transmitted diseases, postoperative period);
- increased body temperature;
- irritation and mechanical damage in the bikini area (skin rashes, cuts, scratches).

Basic precautions during the first 24 hours include the following:

"Runway"
This haircut is ideal for all representatives of the fair sex who have thick and dark hairs growing in their pubic area, as this strip looks quite beautiful and clear. The width can be absolutely any; it will depend on the woman’s configuration. For example, a narrow stripe is best for slender young ladies, and the widest one is suitable for overweight women. Please note that the top line of such a “runway” should never extend beyond the underwear area. Otherwise it looks rather unaesthetic.
Strip
Stripes of various widths and lengths are currently very popular among the fair sex. It is necessary to select a specific model for yourself based on the density of pubic hair, as well as the characteristics of your physique.
For example, if you are wondering how to make an intimate haircut yourself, or choose one or another type of intimate hairstyle, then pay attention to the fact that a longitudinal wide stripe is best suited for plump women. Moreover, the fuller your waist and hips, the wider your stripe should be.
If you want to emphasize your thin waist, you can sharpen the stripe towards the top.
The transverse stripe is an excellent intimate styling option for those women who have a too narrow pelvis and an undefined waist. This hairstyle makes your hips look much wider.
There is another popular intimate haircut called “Tiffany”. It is a very wide and short strip, similar to a square. This option is ideal for tall and large women. If you want this hairstyle to always look neat on your body, you should regularly trim your hair almost to the very root.
Triangle
So, we continue to consider how to make an intimate haircut yourself. It’s quite easy to choose one or another type of intimate hairstyle for yourself. To do this, you just have to take into account our recommendations.
A classic intimate haircut is a triangle, which is popular among conservative women who do not want to experiment. However, this intimate hairstyle can also be divided into several varieties.
For example, you can make a triangle with an outer line that bends slightly inward. This hairstyle perfectly emphasizes a woman’s graceful figure. Thanks to an intimate haircut, the hips look smoothest and the waist appears thinner. However, you should pay attention to the fact that owners of curvy figures should not use this hairstyle, otherwise it will emphasize all the flaws of the figure.
An intimate hairstyle in the shape of a triangle, which has a convex outer line, is an ideal solution for curvy, plump ladies, since visually such a haircut makes the stomach not stick out much, and the hips become not so large.
For an intimate haircut, you can choose an inverted triangle that looks like a mountain peak. This shape emphasizes the seductive line of a woman's hips, and also draws more attention to the chest.
Patterns
It is also popular to add different patterns that will complement the image in their own way and make it mysterious. Popular patterns are yin-yang, snowflakes, butterflies, moon and so on. Such caricatures are suitable for both women and men, so you can do them at home yourself or in a beauty salon.
Sugar hair removal (sugaring)
This method is often used at home. It consists of applying sugar paste to the treated area. The procedure is virtually painless and does not lead to ingrown hairs or injury.
To epilate using this method, you need to prepare a mixture of sugar, water and lemon juice.
Place 500 grams of sugar, 80 ml of water and 60 ml of lemon juice in a saucepan. Mix everything and put on low heat. Stir the mixture constantly to prevent burning.
When the sugar begins to dissolve, turn off the heat, cover the pan with a lid and leave for 20 minutes, stirring the mixture occasionally.
Pour the paste into a glass container and let cool.
Before the procedure, degrease the skin and apply the composition. When the composition hardens on the body, quickly remove it. The sugar paste is removed along with the hairs.
You can watch how to prepare the composition for sugaring in this video:
How to use correctly at home?
First, the skin is prepared:
- For a smooth shave, the face is washed and steamed.
- Use a terry cloth soaked in warm water and apply it to your face for 2-3 minutes.
- Many men prefer to use soap during the procedure, but it can dry out the skin, so purchase special foam.
Movements with the blade are carried out in the direction of hair growth. To make the shaved area smooth, you need to run the blade over it several times.
Start on the right side of your face, using your left fingers to stretch the skin. Then go to the left side. You need to stretch the skin so as not to miss a single area.
When operating with a blade, you should tilt your head for convenience; when cleaning the chin and neck, tilt your head back. All actions are performed carefully and slowly, this is the only way the skin will not be injured.
After shaving is completed, a damp, warm towel is applied to the face and balm is applied to the skin. This way you can prevent the spread of irritation and redness on your face.

How to hold a beginner?
It is also important to master the shaving technology itself and how to operate the machine correctly. At the same time, experts recommend knowing three ways to hold a razor in your hands:
At the same time, experts recommend knowing three ways to hold a razor in your hands:
- Depending on the direction of the blade, that is, the tip should point either up or down.
- Depending on the angle of rotation, that is, the razor is located relative to the wrist.
- The little finger should be on the tail of the machine.
Hold the tool by the handle with three fingers - thumb, index and middle, the little finger is in place of the neck and fixes the direction of the razor. The most important thing is to hold the razor firmly in your hands, but without much tension.
The sharper, the less stubble
Many people wonder how a sharp blade can affect hair growth, because in any case, it will appear again. In fact, if you don't want thick stubble, then always choose a sharp razor.
The advantage of a blade razor over other tools is that a well-sharpened blade makes shaving easier, which means the result will be better. But a dull blade will tear facial hair and lead to irritation.
Hair angle
The razor blade should move with the toe forward, and the angle of inclination should be within 30 degrees; you should not bring it to 40 degrees.
- All movements are carried out with ease and ease.
- The movement is carried out only by the brush, which does everything rhythmically, but at the same time softly.
If you use your entire hand during shaving, the hair will not be shaved, but pulled out. As a result, the skin will become irritated.
How to properly tighten the skin?
This should be done to better remove stubble. After this, the skin will become smooth, like a baby's.
How to do it correctly:
- The tension is done with either the middle or index finger, and the skin is stretched in the opposite direction of the movement of the blade.
- The indentation is made by 2-3 cm. In this case, the fingers should be on an area not lubricated with foam.
- To do this, the soap formation is pushed back with the back of the razor.
Tilt and direction
The angle of inclination, as already mentioned, is 30 degrees. This is necessary so that the skin becomes as smooth as possible and no areas of irritation appear.
If you make the angle sharper, you won't be able to shave like that, since the blade will slide over the surface of the skin. If you increase the angle distance more than 40 degrees, there is a risk of cutting.
