How to shave your pubes properly, according to a porn star

The more you know.

Anna O'Rourke

It’s no-one’s business what goes on between your legs.

That said, for whatever reason, you may want to remove your pubic hair.

It’s a tricky area to tackle (poor visibility, awkward surfaces, some very sensitive bits) so wouldn’t you like to hear how someone who does this daily for her job gets it done? We certainly would.

Porn star Dillion Harper has her routine down to a tee.

She’s too chicken for waxing or laser (same, TBH) so a humble razor is her tool of choice.

She shaves every day due to the thickness of her hair and always uses a fresh razor head and plenty of shaving cream, she told Popsugar.

Here’s exactly how she does it.

“Use two fingers to split your [labia] as you shave,” she advises.

She chooses to shave inside her labia but says that if you’re nervous about knicking anything with the razor and drawing blood, you should “shave a little above your lips and a little above your clitoris” and then trim whatever else you want with a scissors afterwards.

She blow-dries her nether region afterwards to make sure there’s no lingering moisture down there.

You can press a hot towel or rub some aloe vera on the area you’ve shaved if it’s feeling irritated or even some moisturiser, but not too much.

“Make sure it is just a dab,” she said. “You don’t want the area to be too moist.”

So there you go. Best of luck with your next shave.
