Should I Shave My Chest?

Question

It's not like I'm "Gorilla Hairy".

I'm just not comfortable taking off my shirt at the pool.

I've done it before and was fine with it. Not like it wouldn't grow back.

But I'm going to let you guys decide, because IDK if I should bother.

So, is it a good or bad idea to shave it.

BTW, a few facts I learned,

More hair does NOT grow back.

Shaving doesn't create more hair follicles, it just appears that way when it's stubble.

Also, after a week, the stubble goes away and it's just a lighter amount of hair.

But again, is it worth it? You decide! :o)

Answer 1

Assuming you are male, I say NO! Women like chest hair (or maybe it's just me that likes it...) a bald chest is not attractive.

Now, if your back starts getting hairy, then it's time for a waxing...

Answer 2

Shaving your chest hair might be okay at the time but you are gonna get very itchy when it grows back. Maybe consider laser hair removal. Its meant to be permanent hair removal - or it may take several treatments to get it done. I had a similar treatment recently with laser but it was to break down sun damage on my face. Apparently what I had done was menat to be more painful then laser hair removal. And so knowing this, I would definately have laser hair removal since it would probably only feel a slight warm tingle/rubber band slap feeling. Me personally - I prefer a guy without chest hair or not much anyway.

Answer 3

Well its gonna grow back and although more hair doesn't grow back the hair that does grow back comes back thicker.

You shouldn't be self-conscious about it - because a lot of people think that hairy chests are a manly thing - associated with men.

And those who shave their hair is more associated with females.

But I would do whatever makes you feel better & more comfortable.  

Answer 4

Bad idea from my own experience

just because it didnt grow back the first time,,,,,,doesnt mean it wont twice as worse the next time,,,,, i think u should bite the bullet and wax it !!

Answer 5

wax it. honestly, maybe the first few times you wont notice the hair difference, but after a while it WILL grow back thicker and darker.
