I'm gonna be 20 in 3 months. I'm mostly smooth but lately I have noticed some fine blonde hairs on my back, shoulders and chest. They look fine but if they get thicker/blacker it'll be gross. I hope they don't turn into black ones...... What age will my bodyhair stop growing?
Like, at what age did you have mostly all of your body hair? Early 20's?

I think you want to know; "When do you stop getting body hair in different parts of your body?" The question you posed; "When did your body hair stop growning?" is another question entirely.
The answer to both is "Never". You will get hair in places you can't now even imagine. And... your hair (that part that doesn't fall out) will start to grow to unimaginable lengths.

Funny topic.... I was always told that the older you get, the more you become able to grow hair! Except on the top of your head, of course.

Funny topic indeed. I noticed that recently I've gotten a little bit of hair on one of my lats. Nothing major but I have my wife rip it out if it's beach season because it just looks odd on one lat. I feel it's the extra test I'm producing from my mega mass producing workout
I remember when growing up, we would sit around watching TV and my mother would pluck the hairs from my father's ears. Now that's love. It was like watching chimps groom each other. lol"Franco is pretty smart, but Franco's a child, and when it comes to the day of the contest, I am his father. He comes to me for advices.

blond fuzzies, that's how it all starts.
A few go dark, then before you know it you're the guy with the hairy back.
If it comes in thick enought, which it will, you can shave the numbers of your favorite sports personality in your back hair!

Unfortunately, it only gets worse. I just turned 37 and for the first time pre-contest (this past June 2004), I had to shave my back.
Don't worry though, it's all a part of growing up.
My girlfriend actually thinks the 3 hairs growing on my ears are cute. We've named them "Huey, Dewey and Frank."

Well, you could pray for a testosterone deficiency like I had. Then you'd lose a lot of body hair. Of course you lose a lot more than just body hair. But after starting replacement, the hair and other things came back.
Anyhoo... there are worse things to be afflicted with than copious body hair. Because there are remedies for it, like shaving, trimming, waxing, and defoliating (depilitories). I go to a salon once every 5-6 weeks to have my back and upper arms/shoulders waxed. Costs me $25-30."Go home, have a beer and smash something. That's what I would do" - Unknown (but probably Thor).

If you worry about it, it'll grow in faster, thicker and darker!
When I was 12, I couldn't wait to start shaving so I could be a real man.
Never dawned on me exactly how manly I would become!

Hair today, gone tomorrow
Well, I've had it both ways. Two years ago I had chemotherapy and lost the body hair on my arms and legs. Only the gray/silver hair stayed on my head! Now it's all back. By the way, ear hairs do exist in old age; I have found out through personal continuous experience!

Yelp, it's something that you're going to have to live with. It's all part of getting older. I've got some back hairs, though it's just sparse and not too hairy. You don't see unless you're looking up close. Just wait until the top starts going thin. Strange, you can grow hair all over your body except on the top.

Damn, you guys are a bunch of hairy apes! (just kidding)
I'd always felt less manly when I was a teen, b/c I hardly had any body hair.
My arms and legs have fine hair, but I noticed that I have to trim my nose and ear hairs,recently. Now I have to shave my face everyday! And I'm 40!I'm an old guy in a young body.
Nay hall ma?
