Everything you did (or didn't) want to know about the hair down there.
As humans, we spend a large portion of our lives shaving . We spend an even larger portion of our lives dreading, avoiding, or attempting to shave our pubic hair . For men in particular, the practice of intimate grooming is one that's kind of confusing, a catch-22 of too hairy or not hairy enough. Question number one: why the hell do we even shave down there in the first place?
It's likely that you have your fair share of questions about your hair below the belt, questions that you've never even deigned to Google, let alone ask a professional.
The following FAQ attempts to answer everything you didn’t know and didn’t realize you needed to know about your pubic hair. You've been warned: once you've got the info, you can't un-know these things. Godspeed.
We talked to a lot of doctors, dermatologists, hair specialist, urologists, and pubic hair enthusiasts trying to find the answer. Most of them had no idea, and a few had educated guesses.
Marc Glashofer , a dermatologist and fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology, claims that the texture of pubic hair tends to be thicker and more coarse than hair on the rest of our body because of its origins as a buffer.
“It prevents friction during intercourse that can cause skin abrasion and rashes,” he says. “More importantly, pubic hair serves as protection against bacteria and other pathogens.”
As for the curliness of pubes, Brian Steixner , M.D., Director of the Institute of Men’s Health at Jersey Urology Group in Atlantic City, suspects it’s because curly hair does a better job at trapping the pheromones secreted from sweat glands around the groin area.
In fact, it's theorized that nearly three million years ago, when human beings were still walking around half-naked, a nice pungent odor wafting up from your junk was actually considered an aphrodisiac.
That’s one way to look at it, yes. It was also how your great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparent announced to a mate that they were sexually mature enough to procreate, says Andrew Thompson , author of What Did We Use Before Toilet Paper?: 200 Curious Questions and Intriguing Answers .
“Some anthropologists have suggested that pubic hair in males might have been an ancient way of impressing and deterring other males who were in competition with them,” says Thompson. “Similar to a lion’s mane.”
Robin Weiss , a Professor of Viral Oncology at University College London, proposed another interesting animal-based theory in the 2010 issue of the Journal of Biology .
According to Weiss, the coarse, thick texture of our pubes is evolutionarily similar to that of gorillas. And phthirus pubis — or as you probably know it, “crabs” — is something we acquired, in Weiss’ words, "probably directly from gorillas."
“Because [crabs] were already adapted to the coarse body hair of the gorilla,” Weiss wrote in his study, "crabs would have found a suitable niche in human pubic hair.”
The pests may have found their way to humans who ate gorillas and came into regular contact with gorilla carcasses, which made it possible for crabs to make the leap and feel right at home on humans' gorilla-esque pubes.
Shampooing isn’t necessary, says Ricardo Mejia , M.D., a dermatologist from Jupiter, Florida. A little soap and water is more than enough.
"The shampoos these days are used to maximize volume in the hair, to give it excellent shine and bounce," he says. "Unless you are a pubic hair model, I don’t see why it is necessary to shampoo."
Most pubes grow between half an inch and 1.5 inches, according to Steixner.
But if the Illustrated Book of Sexual Records — published in 1983 by G. L. Simons — is to be believed, a young lady named Maoni Vi of Cape Town, South Africa once possessed pubic hair that dangled down to her knees. According to the book, her hair reached 28 inches.
As Glashofer reminds us, “Each hair follicle on our body is genetically programmed to have different growth cycles which influences the hair length... The hairs of the pubic region have been biologically programmed to grow only to a certain length.”
Your crotch will not start balding as dramatically as it happens on your head. As you age and your testosterone decreases, usually in your 50s, you’ll start to notice things are a little less bushy down there.
“It’s a slow progressive loss,” Steixner explains. “It’s not so much balding as a progressive thinning of hair until it appears to be almost non-existent.”
A 2013 study conducted by the University of California San Diego found that between 2002 and 2010, groin shaving mishaps requiring emergency room visits increased five-fold between 2002 and 2010. With the dangers involved, is it any wonder that pubic hair may be making a comeback ?
In 83 percent of penile injuries, there was a razor involved. Scissors were responsible for 22 percent of the balls-bleeding. And hot wax accounted for less than 2 percent of reported ER visits. Which is still a lot, if you think about it.
“The skin on the scrotum is very unique in that it has nooks and crannies,” says Steixner. “Those areas have been proven to trap huge amounts of bacteria. When you shave that pubic area, even a minor cut or laceration can cause bacteria to get inside there, and can very easily cause cellulitis, abscesses, and in very rare conditions, something called Fournier gangrene.”
If you thought about Googling Fournier gangrene, don't. Steixner calls it “flesh eating bacteria of the balls.”
Steixner tells us that the condition is actually “quite common."
"I see it once every three months," Steixner says. "And it’s not a joke. I’ve seen people die from this.”
It happens primarily in people with weakened immune systems, like severe diabetics or HIV carriers. But in some cases, it can happen to perfectly healthy guys.
“It starts with a knick to a hair follicle during shaving,” Steixner says. “A very specific bacteria gets under the skin, and it travels fast. It basically starts to eat away at all the skin.”
In the end, the treatment isn't pretty.
"We have to surgically remove all of the skin on a man’s scrotum," Steixner says.
If you insist on a shorn scrotum, Steixner recommends going for an electric razor over a straight razor. There are a few tools that can help aid you in your hair-free journey.
But before you get going, here’s a word of warning from Steixner:
"It’s Friday night," he says. "You’re getting ready to head out and maybe meet some girls. You’re in the shower, and you decide, what the heck, I’ll give the boys a quick shave. The next thing you know, it’s Sunday, and you’re in the ER with no nuts."
Use caution when it comes to your pubes. Always.

Although we’ve got big brains, have invented some pretty cool things, and look and act a little differently than our dogs, at the end of the day, humans are still animals.
There is a long history called human evolution, and while certain aspects have gone away as we’ve evolved, others have stuck around. To blow your mind even further, this evolution concept is still happening. Humans will probably look different in a few tens of thousands of years (if we can manage to stick around for that long).
A lot of people think about human evolution in terms of walking on two feet and opposable thumbs, but it’s actually applicable to every part of our body. This includes your pubic hair.
Yes, your pubic hair has an evolutionary purpose.
However, even though it has a purpose, there are also things like hygiene best practices and new and hip trends. So, it’s ok to give some grooming attention to your pubic area.
We’re going to have some fun diving into the pubic hair history book and then give you some tips and tricks for your pubic hair of the modern era.
Pubic hair is hair that grows on and around a human’s genitals. It appears when a human starts going through puberty, and from a physical perspective, it is an actual body signal of sexual maturity. At the scientific, Animalia level, this means that when pubic hair appears, that human is physically capable of reproducing. Pubic hair also traps smells, and when animals are ready to mate, they use a lot more senses than we seem to use today.
While physically visible pubic hair and the smell of a mate were two super relevant signals when our humanoid ancestors had no clothes and the population was scarce, this is not so much the case now.
As with any animal, human genitalia is an extremely sensitive and vulnerable area of the body. If that area is damaged, it is much less likely to perform its role. Our body design takes things like this into consideration and is why pubic hair, for example, is thicker and coarser than other hair on our body.
It provides a buffer during intercourse from skin-to-skin contact and prevents friction. Friction produces heat which produces moisture, and that area of a body is susceptible to sores, burns, cuts, etc. Open sores lead to infections that cause serious harm to an area or even death.
A few things have happened over the ages:
With all of this though, the modern human body still thinks a little cushion is needed down there. Just in case.
Now that we’ve gone through a whirl-wind history lesson, we want the men of 2022 to get that cushion looking, smelling and feeling just right for the modern world.
While a little hair is still necessary, there is such a thing as too much. We’ve also established that pubic hair is thicker and coarser than regular hair, so it has the tendency to stick, poke, get stuck, etc. with our modern clothes. While that should all just be avoided, our modern partners also want to enjoy the sexual experience. Too much pubic hair can actually be uncomfortable for another person, cause irritation, and even be deemed unattractive. People do care if you have hairy balls now, too.
The Performance Package 4.0 and The Perfect Package 4.0 are designed to help our modern man keep their hair situation under control overall. These packages include powerful hair-cutting tools like The Lawn Mower® 4.0 , the Weed Whacker® and The Plow® 2.0 . We also have Crop Gel® to help you address the boys (and it smells nice).
Trimming your pubic hair and shaving your balls is all about routine. It’s not a one-and-done deal. Hair grows and will keep growing.
Our recommendation is to build in a pubic area check at least every week. Pay attention to the hair down there. If your hair grows faster, you might need to address it more often. Not as fast, not as much. For those of you with partners you trust, ask for their opinion about how long they want your hair to be. How often do they think you should shave it?
Pubic hair grooming should be seen as part of full body hair care. We have the products and tools that allow you to give the same attention to your pubic hair as your facial hair, so let us help you.
We’ve got Crop Reviver® standing by to protect the area after that close shave for the balls as well.
Attention to the pubic area is not only a good idea for general hygiene, but there are a lot of glands and folds of skin down there. These cause moisture, they sweat, and they can produce a gnarly odor by the end of the day. There are also really unpleasant things like jock itch, which is actually a fungal infection that we 100 percent want to prevent in that area.
Remember that whole concept of attracting mates through the smell wafting through your pubic hair? That smell can now be a whole lot more pleasant. Crop Cleanser® is a crowd favorite that we think you’ll enjoy and our Crop Preserver® keeps the balls dry throughout the day until you can hit the showers.
Oh, the loofah. Not only is it fun to say, but...
Ummmm, anyone. Everyone. Well, everyone with groin...
You moisturize all of your other skin. Why wouldn’t...
