    Bodyhair: To be, or not to be...?

    Unfortunately I was blessed with alot of hair on my body. My legs are hairy, my arms are hairy, my chest is hairy, my hair is hairy, my @$$ is hairy, etc... Well, anyways, I was wondering, if any of you out their have the best suggestion for getting rid of body hair. I heard ridding yourself of bodyhair supposedly looks alot better and allows people to see more muscle definition, especially in the Ab regions, but I wanted some input. Shaving, buzzing, waxing, etc... Which is better? My legs and arms are just too damn hairy. I heard that whenever you cut your hair, it grows back thicker... If this is true, then I'm guessing it would not be such a good idea because I won't be able to shave my body for the rest of my entire life. Anyways; input please.

    Shaving works fine for me.

    And no, your hair will not grow back thicker if you cut it.

    There's a cream you can get from the doctor that prevents the growth hair after you shave for up to a month, although it's a bit pricy. It think it saves money when you're only shaving 12 times a year.

    Regular shaving works just fine. And it all depends on what you're shaving for. If you're into bodybuilding, then you'll definitely have to shave anyway, as the hair will block muscle definition. If not, it could be for personal appearance, self-esteem. Some ladies love men with hair, some women hate it. Whatever you wanna do...it's up to you.

    I really don't remember. I was going to ask my doctor about it the next time I went.

    Nice. Anyone ever try these creams? I think I heard from someone that they can burn your skin or leave red marks if you leave on too long or something like that.

    shaving

    If you're into competition or really hard core I guess shaving or some kind of hair removal is required, but I can tell you that for me, an average guy with a decent build and moderate body hair, it just wasn't worth it. I tried the shaving route - took a lot of time and left bumps, was not fun when it was growing back. At my wife's suggestion I did the waxing thing - had my chest, back and butt waxed, which was not cheap and did not feel too great either - never again for that route. The worst part was that for me it didn't really seem to make that much difference in how much definition you could see.
