...Here's a topic i'm sure will get people talking.

When it comes to body pics:

Hair, or no hair to show your progress?

Just one of those random questions I was wondering whether it would divide opinion or not...

    Wtf is jungle hair?

    But yeah, I guess i'm primarily asking guys. When they're tracking their body progress via photos - what are peoples opinions on removing body hair for pictures?

    This is my opinion as a girl, but I think men look silly with shaved chests, even if it shows the muscles off better. Sorry dudes-who-don't-realize-they-are-androgynous-looking! :ohwell:

    I think if you are really hairy with dark hair it might be better to get it waxed so you can monitor your progress perhaps.

    I like a smooth chest :)
  • If it's naturally light thickness, no worries, if it's pretty thick, a little trimming might be in order to see changes.

    I dunno - I just wondered whether it would split opinion really.

    I have a fair amount of body hair but have only ever got rid of hair on my shoulders/upper arms/upper back and nowhere else. Just wondered others opinons on it :)
