For some men, shaving the scrotum completely isn't needed or desired. Others prefer shaving their scrotum completely smooth with shaving cream and razors. There's something to be said for having a silky smooth nut sac. But nicks, razor burn, the inevitable stubble and itching in the days that follow can be a deterrant. Those new to manscaping may wish to go easy the first time around. With traditional home hair clipper sets - using a short #1 clipper guide will remove the vast majority of the scrotal hair safely - without unecessary prickly or itchy after effects. Work around the scrotum from all directions to insure an even cut.
