Body Hair Removal for Men & Women!

Some of you younger readers might not believe this, but in your grandparents generation, a hairy man was a 'real' man and much sought after by the ladies. It was only a generation or 2 ago when men were men and women were women. Nowadays, it’s hard to tell the difference sometimes as more men get more in touch with their feminine side and women are evolving into some kind of semi-masculine species. A woman used to like her man to be hairy, and men were quite happy with it too. Not so any more as we see more blokes making appointments for body hair removal than women!

This twenty first century fascination for body hair removal has absolutely no gender boundaries. It has leapt beyond men shaving their faces, and women keeping their legs and armpits clean and smooth. The modern man is supposed to be virtually hair free from neck to waist but it doesn’t stop there with some folks. Many girlfriends want their man to include the hairs around his golden triangle too! Blah! Body Hair removal for men - what a hassle!

Removing Body hair is done in a variety of ways. If you're wealthy, you probably just get a routine wax job at the local spa. For the rest of us middle-classers, body hair removal can be a rather tedious hair shaving chore. Okay, everyone decided after the 70's that back hair was just plain ugly. Well, maybe they always felt this way, but the issue was kept quiet. Anyway, once the 90s hit, many men of society found it essential to rid themselves of chest hair as well. This way the ripped torso can be exposed, if you actually have one. Whether you're resorting to a painful home wax job, or simply taking the Mach 3 to the pecks, body hair removal can be a messy business.

Being a fan of humans looking like people instead of bears, I practice a brief regime of body hair removal. When you start getting a little on the lower back and a tad on the shoulders you may want to take action. However, simply clipping or trimming the chest hair can be an enhancement. This way you keep the chest hair, but avoid looking like Grisly Adams. I met a co-worker once, who was a big fitness buff. He claimed that body hair removal was a must. When I asked him his routine, he said that he shaved from neck to toe, twice a week in the shower. I was stunned. He claimed it was easy, and only took him a total of 15 minutes. Men are getting more and more concerned with this as time goes on. Bald abs are just what's considered hot!

If you've never had it done, body hair removal might sound like a gut-wrenching process, it doesn't have to amount to much. We certainly have many shaving accessories at our disposal these days, such as electric shavers, trimmers, and all the razor types available. Since the days of manly men with Kodiac chests are behind us, you might as well put away the button downs that you once left hanging open, unless you're going to hop on the hair free bandwagon.

Because most people are not bald or going bald, this automatically makes those of us with male pattern baldness, and female baldness open for ridicule and passing glances. But as the problem seems to be getting more common, maybe there will come a time when those with a full head of hair will be the odd ones out, and therefore less accepted by the glamorous society. Hmm! Wishful thinking!
