This is more of a commiseration-seeking, "am I the only one?" type of post, but --
Has anyone else ever nicked themselves -- broken skin and/or drawn blood -- while trimming their pubic region?
Me, I've done it too many times to count and with at least 4 different models of trimmer, leading me to believe the common denominator is not the product I'm using. I managed to do it once today while the plastic blade guide/guard was actually on.
Grr.
If I didn't like the trimmed result so much -- and the fact that with shorter pubic hair, my vaginal discharge can't stick my lips: a) to one another; b) to my underwear -- I'd consider ceding victory to the hair.
As it happens, though, that is a non-option. (Shaving, waxing, sugaring, Nair-ing, and epilating are also non-options.)
So.
Tips for surviving a trim unbloodied? Or at least voices letting me know I'm not alone?
