How best to broach deodorant/trimming?

[+ KensingtonHomo]

Hey Providers,

I am incredibly sensitive to smell, and while I don’t mind a bit of natural musk, I much prefer men who wear deodorant and keep their crotches smelling fresh. 

I know many of my brethren like pit smell and such but it’s not for me. 

is there a sensitive way to bring this up to a provider? If a guy really doesn’t want to wear deodorant, that’s cool but he’s not the provider for me.

Similarly, I like some public hair but not 70s bush or completely shaven. Nice way to ask about that? 

I do my best to be respectful of providers and their choices but if someone has a strong odor or is completely bare in their crotch, I’m really turned off. 

Thanks in advance.

The smell thing shouldn't be a big deal to any decent provider. Just ask them if they'd be okay with wearing deodorant before the session. You can say that you enjoy the smell or something. Pubic hair is gonna be a different thing as a guy can't just change it up for the next client that has preference so you may get more pushback on that.

Yeah I agree. Be direct and say you're sensitive to body odor, so please shower and use deodorant! Simple

I get objections to smells but surely you can't be dictating a provider's pubic hair.

Uhhhh, I never said I wanted to "dictate" or "change" a provider's grooming habits. I was looking for a way to broach what a provider typically does in terms of grooming because I've hired guys whose pictures show them with hair and they should up bald. If they prefer to have no pubic hair, they're not the provider for me.

You know what’s worse than the natural smell of a man’s armpits?  The awful taste of deodorant.  Could it be your provider doesn’t wear deodorant as not to spoil the flavor of any oral exploration?  👅

Like he says ☝️☝️☝️ Licking a deodorant-bathed armpit dries your tongue and leaves a foul taste.

I don’t lick anyone’s armpits. I get that some guys are super into them, but they don’t hold any appeal to me.

Once I've locked in time and place with a client, I always say "My only request is that we both be showered and brush our teeth ahead of time so we can get right into the action." Sometimes I ask if they prefer I do or don't wear deoderant depending on the conversation we've had. I'd estimate 80% of my clients prefer that I don't wear deoderant and I figure I can always put some on but I can't easily take it off. So if we haven't discussed it, I always have some in my bag and take no offense at all if my client requests or suggests that I put some on.

As for trimming, I've had a few clients request that I shave completely which is not on the table. I shoot porn every week and being hairy with a bush is part of what my fans come for. I do my own light trim regularly and I'd need someone to offer a substantial rate increase to consider anything more dramatic.

After a year of almost bi-weekly sessions with a masseur, his crotch area became quite unpleasant with a musky, foul odor. It started out just now and then and eventually was every time. I suggested we both shower before the session which he agreed to one time. Next time, he was firm in that he “just did” which wasn’t true. He lost me - and after numerous texts “hey, man, come back” I leveled with him.  Never heard from him again.

So tacky.

It never ceases to amaze me, how some people will over step boundaries.

I'd probably want to know in advance so to meet all expectations.   Honesty is the best scene,   so I wouldn't hold back with your opinion.

If you have a preference, I see no reason not to ask for it.  The provider can just say he prefers not to do so and then it is down to whether it is a deal breaker or not.  

For me, I am just happy if the guy shows up, and I will deal with whatever I find at the time.

I think you should be upfront with what you like and don't like. Some clients like a natural smelling man scent, some like natural smell showered, and some want to be completely showered and deo. As far as hair same thing just let them know what you like, as a hairy guy myself those things have been said to me.
