Shaving for teens! *dun dun dun...*

[Neserk]

And FYI, continued waxing over time does reduce growback, which is why if you have a hairy back or whatnot,

removing hair (tweezing/waxing) does reduce growback (as you said) in certain areas of the body, not in others. I don't remember the whole list but I know the eyebrows will eventually not grow back... I started plucking mine when I was about 13-14 and by the time I was in my mid twenties I rarely had to do it... of course this was to prevent an uni-brow. I may someday go in to get them shaped (I have lots of eyebrows!) but right now 7 bucks every 2 weeks is too much...

Ha! Shaving is for babies! I burned 2/3 of the hair of my left leg after I fell into a camp fire!

But it hurt.

My policy on shaving goes like so:
Shave your face.
Don't shave your legs and/or arms unless swimmer.
Trim your chest and/or back if you look like sasquatch.
Trim the goods only if they look like you have a rose bush growing out your pants.

This is the weirdest thread.

Shave your toes if you get hair on them. It just looks better. Leave the legs alone. I have hairy legs (self-conciously so), but my girlfriend always comments on how nice my legs look so I leave the hair alone.

.

I love my husband's hairly legs/arms/feet/belly, etc... It is partially personal preference. He is a trimmer and convinced me it isn't perverted so we both trim now. It is much nicer

Dear god, no! Don't put a razor up your nose!
But feel free to *pluck* them.

Good way to get an infection. They make special trimmers for nose hair.

Day 1.

It is like having somebody rub your chin constantly when you walk, only instead of your chin... it's your goods. The coming days can only get better... or so I pray.

ROFLMAO! Expect some itching

The itching is the worst (thankfully it decreases the more you shave/trim). You keep wanting to say, "I don't have a fungal infection. It just itches 'cause I shaved my pubes." But somehow that just doesn't sound a whole lot better.


Keep us updated Kingsnapped.

I like it when chics shave their pubes into shapes/designs.

Oh god, me too. Its my first time, like I mentioned, but seriously, its the same spikey feeling you get when you cut your hair short. Now the spikey bits of my pubes spikes the top side of Captain winky, and it itches a bit now. Lucky I don't wear tighty whities. Otherwise, my monkey would be rubbing against that sandpaper texture all day. I didn't even cut it that short! Its short, but there's still 3/4 of an inch!

And why are there so many pretty boys here who shave their legs? Unless you seriously got a bad case of the Robin Williams, I really don't think we need to start shaving legs. Some of this activity is borderline metrosexual. Metrosexuals are out, baby. Manly men are back (hopefully).

seriously ridiculous thread...

about nose-hair plucking...DO NOT DO THIS. Doing so can cause you to have an anuerism (sp?)...the whole triangular region that constitutes the nose region is included, so theoretically popping zits can also trigger said anuerism...fwiw

As for my shaving habits, I am part-asian, so even approaching 30, I cannot even grow much facial hair...otherwise I have very little body hair.

As for men shaving their nether regions, I have heard conflicting opinions of this from women (random drunken conversations)...some say they approve of/like a neatly trimmed man, but others have said the hair actually performs a rather *valuable* (ahem) function, if you follow...(think about that for a bit)...so personally I trim a bit, but no more...stubble is not a practical thing, even if you can happily strut about in front of the mirror...

oh, I also shave a few stray hairs between my eyebrows, but it takes concerted maintainance after that...

 

[stubeeef]

all of it

Including your tongue!! Take a bath before and after cause the dingle berries can ruin a blade.

ROFLMAO... oh dear... I've come to the conclusion that it isn't about size but about what size he THINKS it is...

PS My husband drives a small 89 dodge truck...

I wonder if Ron Jeremy would agree with you on that.

If they were considering it, don't you think a big ole' missle in the silo would be a little intimidating?

This has turned into a interesting thread....

Having no hair on my chest at 21 and then over the following decade and more its just continued to grow. Now I'm married and all, its not that big a deal, but occasionally I have to trim areas other than my face. The neck is a pain, and you can never seem to get rid of it all. So someone mentioned nair and I have to say I'm a bit curious....anyone had any experience with this?

I've tried it on my legs.. didn't work... mostly it smelled bad and irritated my skin... they do make specific stuff for removing facial hair... I don't know if it would work for a male though.

That's why they invented this stuff...

that is quite an interesting advertisement... oh, how will that big tube fit in the small box? ...

(I am not sure whether this is an intentional ploy on the advertiser's part, or me having a dirty mind...)

I was thinking less of the face and more for my neck. Shaving is ok, waxing would probably be better, but that just sounds a little too painful....

Maybe Nair only works for some and not others?

Laser would be a great solution - a co-worker actually lasered part of his face, now all he can grow is a gotee. I don't think I'd miss shaving everyday, but I have grown beards and gotees during the winter months (its amazing how much it keeps your face warm).

I rather think it's been that way since the start....

I must say, sitting down this morning to look at what had popped up on the forums while I slept, I never expected anything like this. And it just keeps getting...er...better, I guess. I'm surprised posters here haven't jumped all over the new-mouse-looks-like-female-anatomy thread. I mean, that one even has techy stuff in it. This one... well, I guess I'll see tomorrow what fun happens here as I sleep.

It will be pure hell for about 1-2 weeks. Just hope you don't get ingrown hairs because those suck the worst. I remember the first time I took a razor to my dong; I swore I'd never do it again. And use an electric beard trimmer next time.

This thread is so f**ked....I love it!

Indeed. I mean, it's cool to get to know things about fellow members - makes it more of a community. But I've had friends I've known for over 20 years that I'd not discuss this stuff with. However, now I know - or at least have been informed - that a guy in Green Bay whom I've never even met is going to have stubble burn on his inner thighs. God, I love the internet.

I believe the neck skin is more sensitve than the face skin... you would still use the same stuff...

Maybe Nair only works for some and not others?

Yes. I know some who swear by it. I have dark thick hair. Until I can afford laser removal shaving is my only option. People with finer lighter hair usually have more success with Nair and other similar products.

Well, I wouldn't know... but I did talk to a lady who's husband got ingrown hairs and he is doing the laser thing. She is also having it done. So, at least now I know *where* do go...

 

[applemacdude]

I am experiencing what Kingsnapped is experiencing. Theres a lot of itching, really feels weird, anyways A REMINDER ! Shave with the grain not against!

 

[Sneeper]

My 2 cents on Nair and Nads. I've tried both (on my chest).

With nair, you spread it on and wait a few minutes while the cream burns your skin. Then you wipe it off. In my experience, 80 percent of your hair gets wiped off with it. You are left with 20% of your hair and inflamed angry skin. DO NOT use on your nether regions. Even your nipples will burn. For the 20% of the hair that was left over, I still had to shave it off. Which made Nair pointless for me.

With Nads, you spread some of the thick goop on your skin. your body heat softens the goop. Then you rip the goop off. unlike nads, no burning. but instead, the ripping sensation is a bit painful (like waxing). Like Nads, it didn't get all my hair.. So I had to shave to get the rest of it. Pointless.

Nair and Nads may be 100% effective for some people, but definitely doesn't work for me.
