- What is up tech squad, Andru Edwards here back
with another video for you guys, we're going back
into that whole personal hygiene, grooming, men's
lifestyle type of video, youguys really enjoyed it
when I did that review of the bidet a few weeks ago.
Here's a nice blowdrying session.
(dryer whirring)
Ah.
It's basically a blow dryer for your butthole.
So now I'm back today we're gonna be talking about
the delicate issue, literally, of manscaping.
I asked you guys about it on Twitter and you said hey,
manscaping is a good topic, that could be funny, that
could be interesting, let's do it.
So you said let's do it, by popular demand, here it is.
First of all, I'm assuming you know what manscaping is.
You know when a dude trims the various hair on his body
in order to be more stylish, less hairy, more attractive,
less smelly, but yes gentlemen if you're thinking about
manscaping, you need to have the right tool for the job.
It needs to be optimized for the task because you don't want
to be taking a straight razor to your.
So here it is, the Dos and Don'ts of Manscaping.
And yes, I do understand that for a lot of you, the
number one don't is don't manscape in the first place.
And if that's you that's cool, don't worry about it,
you can skip this one, head on over to my last video,
that's fine, but for some others who have been trying
and failing in this video we're gonna be setting
the record straight.
Because whether it's a mid morning meeting or a
Saturday night on the town, you definitely don't want
to be caught off guard.
Now I'm gonna leave a link in the description below
to my tool of choice and it is right here.
This is the Philips Norelco Bodygroom 7100.
So this is actually a brand new unit, I've been using
it since the summertime when I actually recorded
the first version of this video I just never got it out.
And now the video makes no sense because I keep talking
about it being summertime so, got another one
so I can show it to you right in the package but again,
this is the Philips Norelco Bodygroom 7100.
This thing is tailor made to trim and eliminate the hairs
in different zones of your body.
Big shoutout by the way to Philips Norelco for sending
over the Bodygroom 7100, for sponsoring this video
and for helping me open up the conversation about
manscaping and always being prepared in any situation
you might find yourself in.
Okay so onto the dos and don'ts of manscaping.
Now first do is you definitely do want to trim your
chest and ab hair.
Even if you don't have abs, you still want to trim
the abdomen, keep it nice and clean.
The Magnum P.I. look isn't exactly what you'd consider
to be in style right now, but at the same time,
don't feel like you need to shave everything off.
Now if you're using the Bodygroom 7100 like me,
the trimming side does have an adjustable length
so that you can decide how long exactly you want
your hair to be.
So again as you can see there is the trimmer side
and there is the shaving side, so if you want a
super close shave, got the microfilms right there
if you want to do some trimming, that's a trimmer there.
But again it is adjustable so you can basically
find the length that works for you.
Alright next on my do list, you definitely want
to get in those armpits and shave those down as well.
Moisture gets all caught up in there, and in the morning
when you're putting your deodorant on, gentleman
that antiperspirant and deodorant is supposed to
go onto the skin to stop the sweating and the moisture
from coming through, it's not supposed to be applied
to a thick patch of hair.
It's not really going to help you out.
Now that's where the different lengths works again on
the Bodygoom come in and the other thing about this
tool that I really like is that it's also optimized to
be sensitive on your skin so that it doesn't hurt you
when you're using it in those sensitive areas like
under your arms would be.
So both the trimmer and the shaver portions are
meant to be used on body zones below the neck.
Now I don't know exactly why they say below the neck,
because quite honestly you could easily use this part
right here to trim up a beard, but I am assuming
there are some places you might end up putting this
where you then don't want to put it back on your face.
Speaking of below the neck, we have to talk about
the nether regions down there, the pelvic area.
The pubic area, the groin area.
Whatever you want to call it, you're gonna need to
address it when you're doing proper manscaping
and the Bodygroom 7100 is up to the task down there as well.
Let me just be straight with you, if you're lucky enough
to meet someone who is willing to visit that part
of your body, you should make sure it is presentable
to them, they shouldn't have to bring their own
machete to hack their way through.
You probably wouldn't like that anyway, dangerous.
They're trying to get down there for your enjoyment,
help them get there safely.
Reward them with a nice clean landscaped area.
That's all I'm sayin' and they'll thank you, probably
in some amazing ways, I don't know.
Now I mentioned the Bodygroom says that it's optimized
for five zones below the neck.
Those five zones are your back and shoulders,
your chest and abs, under your arms, your legs and
the groin area.
So those are the five areas you can use the Bodygroom 7100
with but there are some don'ts that go along with that
list of dos.
Now the first don't, when you're manscaping in my opinion
especially if you're inexperienced with this process,
this is just shaving, do not get all overzealous.
Do not go buying at home waxing kits or sugar kits or
any of those other things where you have to stick something
on your body, let it dry peel it off with some tape
hair goes flying out, chunks of skin come flying off
blood is everywhere, people are screaming,
people are crying.
(yelling)
- That is too deep, yo.
- Agghh!
- That's not a good situation to be in and
you're probably not gonna want to do it again if
you do that, stick with something that lets you
both trim and shave without the need for that harsh
environment or harsh chemicals.
Another reason why I like the Bodygroom 7100 this
shaver right here actually has a 360 degree pivot
to it to follow the contours of your body.
That's the complete opposite of irritation.
See the trend?
We want less irritation, not more.
Second don't, don't make a huge mess on the floor
of your bathroom and hopefully you're doing this
in the bathroom and nowhere else.
Get a tool like the Bodygroom 7100 that works perfectly
when it's wet in the shower as well, easier to cleanup
in there, you're not gonna have a mess all over the floor
if you do opt to do it outside the shower though,
do everyone a favor and at least bust out the broom
and dustpan when you're done.
The third don't: do not shave everything off.
This is manscaping, you're shaping things, you're creating
almost a piece of art with your own body for lack of
a better term.
The goal here is not to just remove all hair from your
body, that's a little ridiculous.
Some people may prefer that look, but again it's not
what is considered to be the in thing right now
at least here in 2017.
So get something that's adjustable, find a length
that you like, I like half a centimeter to a centimeter.
You find that length, and you stick with that
so you're not looking like a big crazy bear
when you take your clothing off, but you don't look
like you're completely bald head to toe either.
Now if you do want to go with different lengths in
different body parts, that's cool too and you want
something that will last a while.
This does not need to be plugged in while you're using it
the Bodygroom 7100 will last for 50 minutes per charge
and to charge it takes an hour, so you charge it
for an hour and you get 50 minutes of bodygrooming time.
So there you have it guys, those are my quick tips,
my dos and don'ts for manscaping if you want to get
started with that making your body look and
feel a little better.
You're basically turning yourself into a human
Christmas gift.
Now when that special someone unwraps you from
your clothing, you'll look fantastic and ready for fun.
