Manscaping with Meridian
Trimmin’ the ole “tree-trunk” has never been easier.
Oh hey, didn’t see you there. You sort of caught us in a very personal position- the classic trimmin’ the ole tree-trunk routine. Well, now that we are past that awkward introduction, lets dive into the reason why you are here: to find a better way to manscape. If you are like most guys (at least we believe this to be true), the manscaping routine is something that’s not only good for your girl, but also good for YOU and your overall health. With more and more emphasis on a clean-shaving nether-region, the time has come to give this hygiene routine an upgrade.
With this, we welcome Meridian to the bathroom. Meridian line of products cover all your bases from the hair down there, to the spray that keeps those gems of yours at their best. Meridian Grooming features a lineup of trimmers, ball spray, nail kits, nose hair trimmers, and more to keep the hair you want gone-gone. Our crew wanted to test out The Trimmer and the Ball Spray to see if manscaping the man-berries area could be void of the unpleasantries that can occur with a too close to comfort trim job.
INITIAL IMPRESSION
Our crew first popped open the box of Meridian products and found a 1-2 punch of netherland care essentials: The Trimmer and Ball Spray. Each product is pretty straight forward in it’s purpose. The simple branding, packaging and “this is normal don’t make it weird” vibe the brand gave off, almost inspired even the uninspired trimmers in the bunch to take hold of the supplies and go to town.
The lineup of offerings by Meridian was vast and encompassed all anyone would want from a product line like this. The packaging, labels, and vibe had us curious to see just how effective these products were. The sheer variety of products that are offered, the promises of a waterproof trimmer that gets the job done far exceeded our expectations. The Trimmer was sleek, smooth, and not overly bulky that it screamed: I CUT BALL HAIR if one was to leave it out on the counter or in the shower. The overall vibe from Meridian had our hair standing up in anticipation.
Our initial crew impression: Let’s get to trimmin’, shall we?
TESTING IT OUT
Can we be real a second? For a millasecond? Look we get it- talking about trimming the forest is not the easiest to talk about, but it is essential to any guys’ morning hygiene ritual. You wash your berries right? Well, show them (and your girl) some love and cut that forest down a bit huh?
Now that we got that out of the way lets get down to the biz. Our crew was sent the products for testing, but we didn’t all test out the same tools ya feel? We all work together but we are NOT about the sharing trimmer life. So, we ro-sham-beaux and ONE crew member tested the products out. Just for the record.
Includes:
2 adjustable guide combs (3-6mm, 9-12mm)
Cleaning brush
USB Charger
Charging indicators
90 minutes of trimming time on a full charge
Description:
Waterproof trimmer that handles coarse and curly hair without tugs and pulls. Features rust-resistant, hygienic, replaceable ceramic blade module featuring extra sensitive technology to prevent nicks and snags. Waterproof (yes you can use it IN the shower).
So right out the box, this little wizard was ready to roll. The ceramic blades that reduce and resists scratching and tugging did their job. It features a low vibration mode to enhance comfortability and the guide combs let you trim to your perfect length. The Trimmer is easy-to-use and effective in maintaining a well-groomed “down there” area. Within a matter of a Netflix show, The Trimmer was charged up ready to trim. The easy on and off button was a breeze, and the multiple clip on trimmer adjustments were really easy to use and offered plenty of lengths to trim really any “region” (not going to lie we first trimmed our beard a bit before hitting the lower-level).
Speaking of lower level- that’s where this review heads next. Down the ole southern tip (too much?). The trimmer (without any attachments) cut the PERFECT length of the groin area. One does NOT want a trim so close it looks like the top of Mr. Clean’s dome. Just the right amount of hair shows you care but your not a weirdo. Shaving around the jewels was a little different of a story. While you can shave up those bowling balls, we found it was not the best for the delicate sections of our area considering how thin that skin area is and the rapidly moving trimmer head. We left those areas for our tried and true razor, but overall, if general manscaping and trimming around the trunk (and not the berries) is the job: this trimmer is perfect.
Duuude score: 9/10 - Nearly perfect.
Includes:
55 mL bottle
Easy-to-use spray cap with cover
Citrus infused scent
Description:
A pH balanced spray specially formulated to neutralize odor and skin irritation down there.
As said by Meridian: The Spray will help you keep your cojones super fresh while helping to neutralize odor and skin irritation. Folks, it in fact does just this. Long day at the office and a little spray pump on the jewels, and we are back in business. The scent is not so overpowering it smells like a perfume factory yet strong enough to add just the right amount of spice.
Duuude score: 10/10 - Legit sprucer’ upper
STANDOUT FEATURES
The Meridian lineup really does take the skin trim game-to the next level. With their a la carte options, bundles and features, our crew really dug these standout features the most:
The Trimmer really does trim to the perfect length whether you use the attachments for longer lengths or go right down to the bare trimmer
The Trimmer really is waterproof. We tested it in the shower, and it runs like the Energizer Bunny
The Ball Spray really is refreshing and actually helps keep the stank down
The sleek design is easy to carry on a trip, fit in a toiletry bag, and can easily match the vibe of the shower ledge
Need to shave more than your junk? The trimmer is perfect for beards, top-heads, and stomach. We didn’t try additional harry parts, but I am sure it will work!
