All About Male Intimate Waxing

All About Male Intimate Waxing

In recent years, male grooming has evolved significantly, and one of the most popular services to emerge is male intimate waxing. As more men embrace grooming practices to remove unwanted body hair, intimate waxing has become a key aspect of aesthetic appeal.

We have dedicated category section to our professional male waxing specialists worldwide.

The following guide will walk you through everything you need to know about male intimate waxing, from what it entails to where you can get it done:

Is Male Waxing Only for Gay Men?

Absolutely not! Male waxing is for anyone who wants that smooth, hair-free skin. Gone are the days when this is only a female operation - men of all sexual orientations opt for intimate waxing for various reasons:

  1. That "Clean" Feeling: Many men find that waxing helps them feel cleaner and more comfortable, especially in warmer climates or during athletic activities.

  2. Aesthetic: Some men prefer the look and feel of smooth skin, whether for personal satisfaction or to please a partner.

  3. The Sensations: Removing hair can enhance tactile sensations, making intimate moments more pleasurable.

Male waxing is a grooming choice that transcends sexual orientation, appealing to men who value personal hygiene, aesthetics, and comfort. Michael Phelps does it, why shouldn't you?

"Male waxing is for EVERYONE! I have plenty of clients who identify as straight who come for waxing in intimate areas. It helps them with their confidence and many say that their girlfriend/wife is the one who encouraged them to get waxed." - Nate, Esthetician

While the initial men's waxing session might be more uncomfortable, we have found that going for many waxing appointments over time is the key to less pain. Repetition, baby!

Preparing for Your First Full Body Wax

If you’ve decided to try male intimate waxing, proper preparation can help ensure a smoother and more comfortable experience, make sure you grow that hair out! For waxing to be effective, your hair needs to be at least a quarter-inch long (about the length of a grain of rice). Gently exfoliate the area a day before with a mild scrub to remove dead skin cells and prevent ingrown hairs.

Leg Waxing and Chest Waxing and Buttock Waxing, Oh My!

Getting your chest, legs, and buttocks waxed involves different techniques and levels of sensitivity. Chest waxing typically focuses on removing dense, coarse hair to achieve a smooth, defined look, often preferred for aesthetics and hygiene.

Leg waxing, covering a larger area, can be more time-consuming but results in long-lasting smoothness, ideal for that sleek skin. Buttock waxing, addressing a more sensitive area, requires special care to minimize discomfort and ensure thorough hair removal.

What is Male Intimate Waxing?

Male intimate waxingsurrounding areas

Unlike shaving, which only removes hair at the surface level, waxing pulls hair out from the root. You'll get a smooth result, typically lasting between three to six weeks. With regular waxing, hair often grows back finer and sparser over time, making it less painful.

What is a Manzilian and What Does It Include?

A "Manzilian," also known as a male Brazilian wax, is the same as "intimate waxing." As you've probably guessed, he term "Manzilian" is a playful blend of "man" and "Brazilian," reflecting the thoroughness of the hair removal.

"Traditionally a Brazilian wax removes all hair from front and back. At my studio this service includes, waxing the balls, shaft, pubes, cheeks and in between cheeks. However, most men actually end up getting full cheeks, between cheeks waxed and pubes, balls and shaft trimmed/shaved. My clients who opt to get their balls waxed are the ones who are experienced with waxing and have a higher pain tolerance. - Nate, Esthetician"

This service includes:

  1. Pubic Region: Complete removal of hair from the pubic mound.

  2. Penis and Scrotum: All hair is removed from the shaft and scrotum, ensuring a smooth finish.

  3. Perineum: The area between the scrotum and the anus is waxed for a clean look.

  4. Buttocks: Hair is removed from the buttocks and the intergluteal cleft (butt crack).

The Manzilian aims to leave the entire area hair-free, though clients can request variations based on their personal preferences. Some may opt for a landing strip or other designs if they prefer not to go completely bare.

Does a Male Brazilian (Manzilian) Hurt?

Painindividual tolerance

Ripping hair out of the follicle isn’t particularly pleasant so to a certain extent it does feel painful but that sensation is fleeting. Some areas hurt more and others hurt less. The cheeks and in between cheeks hurt way less than the pubes and balls. The looser the skin in the area the higher the possibility for pain.

Factors Influencing Pain:

  1. Individual Pain Tolerance: Everyone's pain threshold is different. What might be mildly uncomfortable for one person could be quite painful for another.

  2. Esthetician's Skill: Experienced estheticians are adept at minimizing discomfort through quick and efficient hair removal techniques. They know how to hold the skin taut and pull the wax strips in a way that reduces pain.

  3. Wax Type: Hard wax, which is commonly used for intimate areas, is generally less painful than soft wax. Hard wax adheres to the hair rather than the skin, reducing the likelihood of skin irritation.

  4. Pre-Wax Preparation: Proper preparation, such as exfoliating the area beforehand and avoiding stimulants like caffeine, can help reduce pain.

Even the hot wax will feel good, certain areas hurt more than others. Let your esthetician know if you are particularly sensitive can help them adjust their technique accordingly.

"I’m going to be honest you guys... the pain was minimal, and that’s the honest truth. That said, everyone is different, and I wouldn’t say it was a walk in the park, but the process was so quick it only hurt as it was actually happening. That means, absolutely no pain after the quick rip. I’m as surprised as you are, trust me." - J.C.

Benefits of Male Intimate Waxing for Men

Hygiene

Waxing removes hair from the root, which can significantly reduce the risk of bacterial growth and odors. This is particularly beneficial in warm climates or for men who engage in activities that cause sweating. The smooth, hair-free skin is easier to clean and maintain, contributing to overall personal hygiene.

Self-Confidence

Many people get a boost of self confidence when things look neat down there. As far as cleanliness, with hair removed or trimmed you can clean the area easier and significantly reduce any musky odors. The hair itself stays smooth for a longer time since you’re pulling the hair from the root and grows back with a fine tip (as opposed to a blunt tip after shaving).

Thinner, Softer Hair

If you wax enough times on a regular basis of 4-6 weeks you can reduce the density of hair by hitting each growth cycle. People who wax for years also notice a reduction in the total amount of hair that grows back as you weaken the follicle.

Aesthetic Appeal

Long-Lasting Results

Unlike shaving, which can result in stubble within a few days, with waxing, hair typically takes three to six weeks to grow back. With regular waxing, the regrowth becomes finer and sparser.

Reduced Irritation

Shaving can cause irritation, ingrown hairs, and razor burn in sensitive areas. Waxing minimizes these issues by removing hair from the root.

Enhanced Sensation (During and After)

A lot of gay men love the sensation of the skin, which means love-making is more pleasurable.

Convenience

Let's not forget - now there's no need for daily shaving or other maintenance. This saves time and effort, making it a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.

"Would I do this again? For sure. Now that I know the anticipation is far worse than the act, I know exactly what to expect from a visit. Something I'd be remiss to not mention to you guys: I have adopted a new daily methodology for cleaning my crack and sack. I regularly use a body wash with salicylic acid, much like my daily face wash, and I use a glycolic scrub a couple times a week, also, much like my face scrub." J.C.
