I use the Mach 3. The skin on my face gets inflamed very easily and I haven't had any problems w/the Mach 3.
Ever place else I just trim so I don't know how well the Mach 3 works on other body parts.

That reminded me of a desktop I saw once of a girl that had it shaped like the Apple logo. Not that I was looking for that... I was going to post the link to the website, but it shows partial nudity and I didn't want to get banned or something. Is it ok if I post the link?Just saw that hairy guy...
Good morning.
Good start into the day to read the new posts
Here a link to the "hairiest" man in China (I assume Yahoo saw this thread and made up that story):
Hairy man
I am a lucky guy - about 34 years old - and don't have to shave my face too often (two to three times a week). Other areas get trimmed once a year before summer. It just makes me feel better - strange isn't it.
yep

Don't use nair

in college i decided to nair my nads to suprise my girlfriend
unfortunately the only reaction i got for all the pain was her laughing and an inside joke that continues to this day 5 years later

I'll just tell you the original page, which is Mac OS Resources: http://www.macosr.com/ and then find the 'women' link on the left column.LethalWolfe said:Posting would probably be a bad idea, but feel free to PM me.
krimson said:the more you shave, the thicker it grows back!
That's actually untrue. It is only an impression of thickness, and it is due to the fact that it is shorter and therefore stiffer to the touch.
Think of it this way: Grab a pencil between your fingers and apply a certain force to snap it in half. Now, grab half of the pencil you just broke and try to break it again. You will notice that it will take more force to bend and even break the half-pencil you got in your hands. It is intuitive to think that just because it's stiffer it must be thicker.
Now, back to your topic. I recall reading that 19% of males (most likely "urban" and "suburban" males) shave their legs and chest. That's almost 1 out every 5 guys. I currently attend college in florida and it is not hard to spot a guy in shorts with shaved hair. Take a closer look when you are walking around campus or highschool or whatever.
Now, the ultimate decision on whether to shave or not is up to the person to which this topic is tacitly directed to please, that is, the girls. Some girls dig the masculinity of hair, some girls prefer the feel of skin. My roomate is on a fraternity and they once threw a Toga party, the dilemma was whether they should shave their chests or not. They didn't know whether the girls would think of them grossly because they were hairy, and they also didn't want to come forth as very "metrosexual" (for lack of a better word, no offense to anyone) for having their hair shaved. In the end, we split the frat 50/50 and we all got laid...
The lesson: Do whatever you want, or shall I say, do whatever your girl wants. (cuz otherwise we couldn't give a damn about this topic)
I only use the razor to shave my face. I don't shave anywhere else. I do however, keep all my hair trimmed.
Now, how do I know all this? Well, I'm 19 and I had those same questions when I was your age. I had to do my own little research to come up with what I think is the best answer for me. So don't shave, just keep it clean and trimmed.
Hope I helped a little bit, now I feel like I've passed some knowledge along...

wow thanks for telling me now, i'm also kind of drunk and i had a bet involving 1000mg of caffine so i'm trying as hard as i can not to do somthing stupid
(the makes your wang look bigger comment cracked me up)
talking about wangs and how big they look when you say it looks bigger do you mean when it's up and running or when it's on cold turkey mode, or both.
i'm just wandering if it's worth the pain.
who's up for a how big is your wang thread? (joke)
personally i shave my face once every few weeks (i need to look old and badly shaven to get into places (i'm 15)) and my monobrow once a month.
i'd never shave my legs but my wang area needs some attention as it's a bit birds nesty and i have very wirey nether region hair.
i shave my face and i have some hair on my shoulders so i shave that too
i trim everything else; pubic, chest, ect ...
i asked some female friends about the pubic area and the most common answer i got was.
"I DON'T WANT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE ****ING JUNGLE TO GET AT YOU"
---- use that advice as your guide --- i sure did

At first this thread bothered me in some ways. i think it had to do with the way those of us with body hair are looked upon. As "man-apes", the "missing-link", and the such.
And it bothers me most that that TV and Film look upon those that have excess body hair as less than perfect. People with "lots" of body hair those that provide comic relief.
I am what some describe as a "furball". I have given up trying to live up to expectations. With my head hairline, I gave in to the razor about 15 years ago (I am now 46). In terms of my everyday body hair, I say f**k them. I have more hair on my back than I do on my head. To those that are offended, sorry that you can't accept the differences that God gave us. To those that can appreciate a hairy chest and back, thank you.
Hopefully to keep this in the Community Forum, there is a time and place for shaving. Having know competition swimmers, a near total body shave has its pace, so does a competition bodybuilder. Yet there are some bodybuilder types that did not let hair stand in their way.
I guess where i am coming from is that one does not have to live up to some "photographic" ideal - whatever that maybe. I'll speak more from my "Gay" perspective. I have dated the "hardbodies", with no hair, to those that were "chubby" with a full "body-suit" of "fur". Each had their qualities. For me at least it matters what was in their heart, rather than what was on their bodies.
I had a lover that shaved my back very chance we had - that was his "perfect mate". Never mind the good times we had, he was looking for that "picture perfect" lover. this is different from the "close-clippings' that came close - which is whole different subject that others have talked about.
Now there are times like in one of the "Scary Movie" series that a trim might be best for all concerned. As there are times a "surgical shave" might be fun also.
I guess the end point is that we should be happy with what the Man upstairs gave us. Those that judge us because we don't have that "perfect treasure trail", or just "too" much hair on our shoulders or back are not worth worrying about - despite what the commercials may say.

Just got done watching some men's gymnastics and noticed that all the gymnists seem to shave their pits.
Although I guess if you are hanging from the rings and have a billion people staring at your pits, you are allowed to be self-conscious.

hee think you have a problem chosing where to shave now when you only have a few areas of light fluff? Wait till your mid-20's onwards, you'll probably get hair everywhere, then mid-30's your nose hair will try and compete with your facial hair. Ear hair will probably be next. It's beyond me why men shave their torso, legs etc....vain big girls in my book.
