Ever wondered what erotic shaving involved but were afraid to ask?By Mistress NoniReview by Crystal and KimahFrom Society of Janus Ó Society of Janus http://www.soj.org Ever wondered what erotic shaving involved but were afraid to ask? Afraid to mention it to your partner? Well, Mistress Noni provided those of us that attended her program on Erotic Shaving with methods to remove body hair. This interesting and informative class offered tips and techniques from using a straight razor to hair removal with fire. Mistress Noni is without hair and described her profound decision for choosing this fashion statement. She detailed watching a kneeling submissive having her hair removed at a play party. The scene was "non-consensual" in tone and Noni was so impressed by what she saw, she promptly left and shaved her head. She currently keeps her head shaved including eyebrows. Her eyes are unadorned of lashes as she plucks those too. Mistress Noni gave a brief description of the historical view of hair and the differences involved with other cultures. In some cultures, women could be ostracized for not having an adornment of head hair. Wigs would be worn to adorn the head. Indeed, one's status could be defined by having hair on the head or not such as shaving the head of a slave to denote their status. Much to the group's amusement, Mistress Noni detailed the use of pubic wigs and how wax would be used to keep these wigs in place. One wonders how these hair pieces stayed intact when vigorous friction was applied to the pubic area between two people. Mistress Noni prepared to shave three male volunteers. Her show as you go style was informative, interesting and interspersed with humor. During preparation she talked of implements such as straight razors, electric razors and disposable razors. Straight razors are not recommended and even though there may be a time to use electric razors, Noni prefers to use disposable razors with a swivel head. She describes the main techniques for shaving as precision, timing, patience, and good light. Shaving should not be done in a hurry. Depilatories are not recommended as chemicals can hurt the skin. Waxing was discussed but not the technique of choice. Wonder how to use fire to remove hair? The areas for hair removal by fire are the chest, back, or arms (No, you sadists, you cannot use fire to remove the hair from your submissives' genitals!). Prep the area with a fine coating of baby oil, spray with alcohol and light carefully. Immediately (and Noni stresses that this is not the time to take a walk and come back to admire your work) suffocate the flames with a damp towel by wiping the area. You should be able to smell the hair as it singes (I know I did when I did it). As Noni says, this will get the attention of your submissive. Three men were the subject of the demonstration. The first of her volunteers was a partial genital shave which included the pubic area, scrotum and penis. After determining how much hair to remove, she clipped the heavy growth area with scissors. This being done, she proceeded to use a disposable razor to remove the remainder of the hair. Mistress Noni prefers to use a dry shave saying the use of cream or oils can bog down the razor and cause pulling of the hair. Always shave in the direction of hair growth. If the razor gets bogged with hair, take a toothbrush and use it to remove the hair from the blade. If the blade feels like it drags on the skin, dispose and get a fresh one. The second volunteer had previously shaved himself and had a reported three weeks growth. His shave was more extensive and included the same areas as the partial shave, but included the rectal area, ass cheeks, and extended down the thighs. As Mistress Noni laughingly said, "there's nothing worse than a hairy asshole," and she positioned herself to the side and behind him so the audience could see the subject with his legs (one at a time) extending over her shoulder to reach this area. She used a soft brush to clear the area of hair. With both subjects, she applied a fine dusting of corn starch to the shaved area. Baby powder (talc) is not recommended due to the addition of scents or other additives. She would show the subjects the finished product with a mirror. The subjects went to the audience to show us how they looked when she was finished. Their pubes were wonderfully soft and glistened slightly with corn starch. I personally felt the soft skin that had not been exposed before. Saving the best for last, Mistress Noni proceeded to shave the head of the last subject. By far the most dramatic change in appearance, she began the same way as with shaving the pubic area. She determined what area was to be shaved and used scissors to trim the excess. She used the disposable razors as she had with her other subjects. She would dispose of them several times during the hair removal. Again, she did not apply oils but did a dry shave on the area. Since the subject had a beard, the loss of his scalp hair proved to be dramatic. A comment the subject made was that he longer had to be self conscious about his "bald spot." Indeed, the subject had blue eyes that were now noticeable and attractive. The loss of his scalp hair had enhanced this characteristic. His pate without hair, the audience freely provided suggestions to the subject regarding his beard. With the dramatic loss of his head hair, his beard was out of place and would require changing. Some suggestions to him were to remove the sideburns and have a goatee. I am sure he had not thought (nor did the rest of us) that removing hair would also involve changing his facial hair. Mistress Noni did mention that heat is lost through the head so for the subject that does not have scalp hair, a hat needs to be worn when outdoors. The use of sunscreens would be recommended. If I had to offer one suggestion to enhance the appeal to this program, it would be the use of a female subject. One brave female had offered herself during a break, but due to time constraints, Mistress Noni was not able to accommodate. The program for Erotic Shaving by Mistress noni was informative, entertaining, and humorous. I appreciated the opportunity to attend and meet this charming woman and learn of another area of domination. Thank You, Mistress Noni for sharing yourself with us, your knowledge and the subjects who graciously extended themselves. The night was worth attending. |
