Yeah, any guy that will complain about you not being smooth as a porn diva when he doesn't take care of his own is NOT a keeper. A bit of hair down below on either gender can still be sexy, but a tangled thicket creates....logistical problems. (bit too late for a delicate ladylike cough, huh?)übergeek said:
About mymemory's shower gambit--only works if the lady in question doesn't find shaving your body hair as repugnant as she finds the hair itself. Of course, if you're hairy enough to need this trick, anyone that turned off by body hair isn't going to stick around anyway.
Other than that, unless people who see you naked shriek in horror and run away screaming about Sasquatches, it's all a matter of your own aesthetic and physical comfort. If you feel the need for letting the testosterone flow from your face in the form of a nice full beard, go for it....just remember that beards aren't nicknamed "flavor savers" for nothing when you go on that dinner date. Nothing's less attractive than your date being unaware of the food in his beard. *bleh*
Personally, I agree with vniow. Death to body hair! ...but, as in so many other things, that's probably just me. 😛

I would like to thank most of the contributors to this thread for helping my supervisor figure out that I haven't been working for the last minutes due to my uncontrollable giggling.
AND that he stoood behind me reading a quote of Uber's hair/teeth comment. 😀
and on a side note, i moonlight shooting videos for a friend, and all im gonna say is that some people should at least trim the Fro from Below... i mean, if it's longer than the biker guys beard... tis a little too much.

ATTENTION: Do not read this thread while stoned.
You will find yourself laughing uncontrollably at the ridiculousness of it all.
If you're hairy, don't shave yourself bald, but trim.
If you're not hairy, don't shave at all, because you will become hairy.
Keep it clean for the ladies, you don't want to be whacking through her bush, do you think she wants to cut her way through yours?

Haha... well, it's really hard to be "serious" in this topic, but I'll try.
The one thing people didn't really mention is toes/feet (actually one person mentioned toes). Personally I have waxed my toes and the top of my feet a few times and then let it slowly grow back before doing it again, you don't want to look like a Hobbit afterall 😛
Besides that, personally I shave my face, occasionally trim under my arms, rarely trim my legs. Thankfully I'm not a super hairy guy...
And FYI, continued waxing over time does reduce growback, which is why if you have a hairy back or whatnot, it would be better to wax than shave as it will reduce the amount of hair that comes back over time. And no, I don't know this from personal experience, lol. I simply know it because my mother has waxed her legs for many many years and very little hair grows back on them anymore.

You know, I'm not convinced what percentage of your "life" is in the same world I occupy and how much is in your head, but it seems like it'd be a weird but interesting one to be a fly on the wall around. Preferably a myopic fly - just able to see enough to get the gist of what's going on.mymemory said:

Ugh, that gave me rashes first time I tried it. I gave it one more shot before I trashed what left I had of it. It doesn't to that for everyone though, my skin's rather sensetive so that's a factor I beleive.

You're not supposed to shave/wax anywhere, no one's putting a gun to your head to make you hairless, you should do what you're comfortable with for yourself and not for other people's acceptance.

Yeah, which is why I only do mine every few weeks or so.
Abstract said:
Its not permanent for one. That's why its technically called reduction rather than removal since it doesn't remove everything it touches. It will reduce it quite a bit but it won't get rid of anything entirely. Its also hard finding a good laser practitioner since the certification process is less stringent than electrolysis.
As for me, well, the sig speaks for itself. Fortunately I'm not very hairy at all so there's not that much to get rid of. My leg hair has diminished quite a bit over the past few months and it doesn't bother me so much that I don't feel I have to shave it on a daily basis, I really don't like my underarm hair at all and would gladly get it permenantly rid of it (among the rest of the hair I shave off on a regular basis) if I could afford it but razors are quite cheap and quite painless so that's what I use for now. Specificaly the new Mach 3 Turbo with the vibrating motor inside. It doesn't make a closer shave, just easier since it just slides along. Less cuts too than others. Its interchangeable with the Venus blades so its good for legs and stuff.
Just do what you think would make you comfortable.

Save It And Wait
OK - here's my advice. Shave the face unless you absolutely know (from a week of vacation) that you can have a decent-looking one.
Everything else - leave it for now. When you get a potential partner, shave or keep what he or she wants you to shave or keep. You don't have to look at yourself and find yourself attractive - they do.
As fer keeping food in your beard - I'm all for it. It gives your significant other an excuse to munch on it. 😉
