Hey all,

I think I should shave my chest. I have this clump of hair right between my pecs and some around my nips.

Do I just trim the hair and then shave it the same way you shave your face? Or is there a different way to go about this?

What are the 'risks'? E.g. will re-growth be thicker/longer?

Do you think its a good idea to shave the chest? I think ill look better with this hair off me! Just needs some tips!

Thanks

just do it man......and no it wont enhance the regrowth....thats a myth.......and now go do it and make some before/after pics =D

I normally use a razor and shaving cream in the shower to remove the hair. It grows back about the same way before I shaved it. I havent tried waxing though. From what I hear, waxing causes the hair to grow coarser, but I may be wrong

dude silver... easiest way

go to your local drugstore or whatever.... grab a beard trimmer.

Beard trimmer = awesome for a few reasons.

a) you can shave your chest, stomach, or whatever else you want really easily, and you don't have to worry about razors near your privates

b) quick, painless... yeah it's not a close shave, but it's close enough to get the desired effect, and you don't get "stubble" really on your chest, it'll trim to short enough that you can't see it.

c) you can use it to keep that "rugged" look on your face... you know, the 3 or so days of growth that's short but kinda scruffy.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Semag, thanks, I actually have a cheapo trimmer knocking about here somewhere - might use that first then shave with a normal razor to finish it off.

Cheers
