What to do If Manscaped cuts your balls accidentally
No matter how careful you are but without the safety guard, sometimes accidents happen when trimming your balls. Don’t panic! There are some ways you can ease the pain and heal the nick or cut.
Soap
First, clean the area with soap and water to prevent infection. Apply a small amount of antibacterial cream and cover it with a band-aid. If the cut or nick continues to bleed, apply pressure for a few minutes or until it stops.
Aftershaves
Aftershave containing alcohol typically has astringent qualities and is an antiseptic against infection. Be warned: it may sting upon application.
A Styptic Pencil
The styptic pencil is a thin stick with astringents like anhydrous aluminum sulfate, potassium alum, or titanium dioxide. These ingredients are great for nicks and cuts.
An Alum Block
An alum block is a bar of soap made from potassium alum that works similarly to a styptic pencil.
To use, wet the bar and rub it on your skin.
Rollers & Gels
Rollers and gels are the next generation of Styptic Pencils. Although the active ingredients are similar, Rollers and gels tend to sting less, don’t leave a sticky residue, and are more convenient. Many of these products contain additional soothing ingredients like aloe and vitamin E for after-shave care.
Ice Cubes
The cold temperature constricts blood vessels, allowing a clot to form more quickly.
Mouthwash
The alcohol in Listerine and other solutions prevents blood flow by causing tissues to contract.
How to use Manscaped to avoid cutting your balls
– Trim before showering, as the warm water softens your hair and skin for a closer trim.

– Pull the skin taut before trimming to avoid nicks and cuts.
– Shave in the direction of hair growth to prevent irritation and ingrown hairs.
– Rinse off any remaining shaving cream or gel to prevent irritation.
– Moisturize afterward to keep the skin soft and hydrated.
Manscaping is safe when done correctly with the right tools and techniques. However, if accidents do happen, there are ways to treat them appropriately.
Aftercare, ensuring your manscaping lasts longer
- Keep the trimmed area clean by showering regularly and using mild soap.
- Exfoliate gently to prevent ingrown hairs.
- Moisturize daily to keep the skin hydrated and smooth.
