    I love getting my back waxed...;-) Its a guilty pleasure... getting laser treatments would take that away.

    Wow. Ok, then. ;-)

    @tinana_RN ... I get my back waxed every 4 to 5 months... I have found that if the hair is less than .25", it doesn't work as well, and it hurts like hell! I normally notice the hair growing back by the 3rd month.

    I think some chest hair is ok... Not into back hair.. and honestly (gasp) a man who shaves or trims his pits and 'manly' areas is sexy LOL!!!

    I like hair. Nothing wrong with a little grass on the playground.

    I could go either way... but think I prefer some hair on the chest....
    More "manly"!!

    I used to HATE HATE HATE body hair but I have slowly warmed to the idea of a little chest hair. Now a perfectly waxed chest just looks a little too "pretty boy" for me lol If your chest hair is under control, not Chewbaca style, then I say keep it and work it :)

    Couldn't agree more! When I was younger I couldn't stand hair on a man's chest / back. But, the older I get the more I prefer it actually. Within reason of course! Keep it trimmed.

    Leave it. If I wanted smooth, I'd date ladies :) My s/o has hair on his chest. Men are supposed to have hair. This why they are men, not boys. Jes my personal preference and opinion :)

    I personally believe people look better with less body hair, but if you don't want to wax it and aren't uncomfortable with it, why bother?

    I agree with the others. I looked at the pics and I think you are adorable. Something about Dads. My husband had 3 kids when I married him and I think he is hot. He told me I must have my beer goggles on.

    Hi there,

    I am a somewhat hairy guy... I've got a lot of hair on my chest, shoulders, arms and legs, and even my back... About every 5 months I get my back and shoulders waxed, but I have never shaved or waxed my chest.......but, now that I am getting close to my ideal weight, and I have started to add muscle and tone to my body, I'm thinking about removing the hair from my chest..... and that brings me to my question.... what do the ladies thing about hairless men...?

    SilMarillion?

    Keep it!!! It's so manly and sexy!!!

    I would laugh if man who told me he waxed or shaved his body...

    Haha I was wondering the same thing a while back. I am not overly hairy but was thinking about whether to shave not shave. I decided to run a trimmer through what I did have with a guard on it (I think it was a number 2). Thinned it up nicely to show everything without the hassle of actually shaving or waxing.

    I personally LOVE a hairy, well groomed chest...very masculine!! Kuddos on the waxing your back though... :)

    I say do whatever makes YOU happy and comfortable..but if you are asking the ladies...this lady says "put the wax down!"

    Leave the chest hair! My husband is overly self-conscious of his body hair, it makes me sad. Men are SUPPOSED to have hair, lol. On a different note, how fast does the hair on your back/shoulders grow back after you have it waxed?

    This. My Husband doesn't have much on his chest, and every summer he'd shave it. I hated when he would, because I couldn't snuggle him without it scratching me up. Now he gets that I like it soft and leaves it alone, finally!

    Honey you look GREAT! :wink: Leave it!
    If it REALLY bothers you. Get something permanent like laser hair removal or something.

    Something to think about.
    1. It hurts like HELL!!!

    2. When that hair grows back it itches A LOT!!

    Personally I think don't wax. I think waxed chests looked awful and don't do any thing for me at all :)

    Personally I say wax it...if not then shave it. I love a smooth chest. I just feel like if I have to keep myself up when it comes to hair my man should too. Hate it when my bf let's his hair get all wild and crazy.

    Your pics look great, moderate hair is fine. I went to a pool though with a guy, and seriously, I could see the hair swimming behind him. NO WAY:yawn:

    wax the shoulder and back. as for the chest, i say just trim so it's still there, but at least it's under control. lol

    I used to shave my chest hair/stomach several years ago, but as most of the ladies on here have already said....it makes you look like a child. I'm not a real hairy dude to begin with, but what I do now is use a body trimmer to keep it short. I think it looks a lot better...you can see the muscle definition without looking like a 14 year old. Just my opinion, but I think it looks good. The ladies like it too. :glasses:

    Says "Jersey pump". I supppose you could get a nice orange spray tan also. Maybe gel your hair up like Pauly D or whatever those Guido guys go by...
