for those new to being a smoothie buy yourself a cordless bodygroomer mine is a norelco but smooth is in and a lot on the market. as for razors sure they get a smoother shave but you will get razor burns , bumps and nicks. after a few times with a cordless trimmer you can go nose to toes Everything in 10-15 minutes and it's good for about a week . no clue about other methods like waxing or laser.
I began my journey to being smooth almost 20 years ago when I got annoyed over the hair in my crack after a long day working outside. It felt so good after removing it, I moved up to my balls and eventually I shaved my pubes. I loved the cool feeling even while wearing jeans at work. Shaving also made me feel a bit horny, knowing I was smooth under my pants while working. Being outside smooth and naked is so much cooler and comfortable. I am not very hairy to begin with so my maintenance is just a few swipes with the razor while in the shower.
