    I've just had a close girlfriend tell me to get him Veet foam remover - that's what her DH used before his snip. I haven't used the stuff for near on 20 years so does anyone know if it has a post-hair removal itch factor?????

    Hahaha ... who knew pre-op could be so complicated!
    OMG Do NOT let him use that! It's not for that area and it will BURN LOL!

    Completely agree with Trill, don't let him put it there! DH has done that too and the results were not good!

    DH was told to shave and do it on the day of the op. I think any itchiness would be the least of his troubles in the next few days anyway....

    Damn. Back to the drawing board (or the waxing board, or the shaving board ....).

    Arimeh - I'll PM you.

    If you google 'veet hair removal for men amazon reviews' you'll find out why you can't use it there

    My hubby had the procedure a week and a half ago and shaved down there. He hasn't said anything about the hair growing back, he is complaining about the stitches being itchy!

    It cost $500 via private practice and we got approx $160 back from Medicare

    I've tried reading all of these before but couldn't get far without nearly choking to death from laughter

    it's also worth searching Adam Hills Boyzillian on youtube

    as for the original question, I have no idea

    How about trimming very close with scissors, at least for most of the area? Less chance of issues with regrowth

    ETA - Although scissors near his bits at this time may make him reconsider his decision..
