No really though, I only use razors. Can't really describe the process, (because I honestly don't have the words and also because that just be weird...), but simply stated, you gotta be smooth and delicate wit it...i'll just leave it at that...
It helps a lot if you douse the homies in baby powder, though. I've never ever shaved the-land-down-under without first applying baby powder.

Hot water in the shower to loosen the skin
Spread it like you do on your cheek for face shaving
After shave
"Hot water in the shower to loosen the skin"...
My routine is shave first, then shower after--that way, the water can effectively wash away those bits of hair and dead skin cells that I missed during the after shave clean-up.

I see y'all aint up on that baby powder huh?...
Baby power, like all powder, absorbs moisture. So by applying it first, I essentially make it easier to get at the hair AND dead skin cells.
Think about it. What's more difficult, shaving hair/skin that is wet or moist (shaving cream), or one that is completely dry (baby powder)?
To me, baby powder makes the process easier and cleaner. Like I said, I'm not targeting only the hair--I'm cleaning away dead skin cells as well, a task that is significantly easier to accomplish when you make the area dry.
Why you think mothers worldwide apply baby powder to the bottoms/crotch regions of the infants? It establishes a clean and healthy "area"...

I think I've probably only nicked myself once or twice in all the years that I've been shaving (10 plus years).
And this is also another way the baby powder helps--it absorbs (cause as previously mentioned, powder is absorbent) any blood in the event you happen to nick yourself. Thus making the clean up all the more easier, yet again.
