    Hair on a guy? Hot.

    My guy looks like a Sasquatch and I love it!
    The little straglers on his shoulders and upper arms seem to bother him though (I could care less), so I've caught him tweezing and shaving them.

    Personally, I don't like the thought of a guy waxing....it just seems weird to me. I myself used to be a waxer, but after burning my arm skin and then accidentally getting a sun burn on top of that, I vowed to never let wax touch my skin again...so I had laser treatments.

    Laser hair removal is an option if it really bothers you, but you have to keep in mind the price, possible scarring, and the fact that the laser will only target dark hairs.

    What I've found works the best so far is using an electric epilator. You don't have to worry about the wax waste or the mess! And it pretty much pays for itself after the 3rd use.

    You don't look overly hairy to me, I'd say keep it!

    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?

    I was going to suggest laser. You aren't too hairy, it would really just thin it. I think hairless men look a little strange.

    @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.
