Pubic hair
Definition
Pubic hair is the body hair that grows around the genitals. Within BDSM, its presence, absence, or styling can be part of eroticism, preferences, fetishes, or D/s agreements.
Explanation of pubic hair
Pubic hair plays a greater role in sexual experience than many people think. For some, natural hair growth is part of sensuality, scent, and maturity; for others, smoothness is exciting, aesthetic, or functional during certain activities.
Within BDSM, pubic hair can become a form of control, ritual, or intimacy. A Dominant can determine whether or not a sub shaves, how often, in what manner, or whether it should be left completely alone. This makes pubic hair a subtle but meaningful layer within D/s dynamics.
There are also players who enjoy the shaving itself: the ritual of seeing someone naked, vulnerable, and at their mercy, the care involved in the process, or the tension of the sharp blade in sensitive areas. In addition, there are aesthetic preferences: from completely bald to stripes, shapes, or full hair growth. Nothing is right or wrong –
Safety & points of attention
Use clean, sharp equipment when shaving to prevent irritation.
Watch out for ingrown hairs. Care is especially important when shaving completely smooth.
