Definitely trim your hair shorter - makes shaving pubic area much easier & not as messy. You want to shave while in the shower. Get some hot water going on the area for a good 2-3 minutes at least. Lather up with a good moisturizing gel. Using a fresh razor - if you don't have electric - shave with the hair, and be gentle! You don't have to put real pressure on the blade, just enough that you are actually removing the hair.

-For guys, definitely get the scrotum to tense up before shaving it. Trust me, it will make things easier and less painful.
