shaving chest

**lookingswell** · 05-17-2006, 12:58 PM

ok..i'm thinking about shaving my chest, but to be honest i'm not sure if it will be better. hopfully it will expose better my inner chest, but maybe it will exose a bad inner chest. you see, i like an inner chest with a "narrow canyon" in the middle, not a wide one, and i'm not sure how mine will look.... (are there training habits that promote this?)..... anyway, does anybody have a picture of a befre/after shaving chest?

I don't, I'm 19 and don't have enough hair to have the problem you're mentioning. On another note, why would it matter, you can wear shirts still ya know. You don't HAVE to show it off

You dont even have to shave it down all the way. Just use an electric trimmer. makes a world of difference on how the chest looks.

You want to look like a man, not a monkey. I would look like a monkey if i didnt shave my chest every month, and im only 17.

chicks arent into that "teen wolf" thing. use clippers or you could end up with some nasty razor rash.

It just brings out the definition of the muscle. On me its like night and day. Dont shave it bare though. Just take it down a bit.

**One Man Army** · 05-17-2006, 07:22 PM

learn it from me
I had a hairy chest for the longest of time.,....decided the other day to shave it...and OUCH...the razor really hurt on there and it irritated it
and now it looks alot better I think shaved...but yeah dont use a razor get Nair or something

**YoungBeef** · 05-17-2006, 07:31 PM

Look, as far as shaving goes here's how I see it:

Big Chest = thin hair to make ya look manly and at the same time, you can still notice the fact thats its muscle not just a wild forest of hair.

Smaller Chest (Leaner) : no hair. NONE! Skinny chest with hair makes ya look wierd :S . . .

And if your not planning on going to any comps or nothing, just follow the directions above and you'll be a better person for it.

**yenal** · 05-17-2006, 07:58 PM

it'll take a while before your chest will get used to being shaved.. just a warning...

**dyland** · 05-17-2006, 08:02 PM

**lookingswell** · 05-17-2006, 08:50 PM

**dyland** · 05-17-2006, 08:53 PM

**asgiambanco** · 05-17-2006, 08:57 PM

**butchcassidy** · 05-18-2006, 03:32 AM

shaving your pubic hair makes you look bigger there too!

**gymboy99** · 05-18-2006, 03:41 AM

get rid of the chest hair it dont look good

**Oz_Rider** · 05-18-2006, 04:18 AM

This is a pretty old pic of mine..
chest hair has grown back since then and ive decided to keep it on... waxing was just too friggin painful... also made the mistake of letting an ex wax my chest for me... lets just say it was pretty painful!! hahahaha
oh and yes i have hair on my abs aswell now... dont mess with that area man, hair grows back darker, luckily chest hair is ok...

**Oz_Rider** · 05-18-2006, 04:20 AM

this was a pic taken a few months ago, notice the redness around the chest, very friggin painful... kinda put me off waxing for good... so yeh thats my opinion.

**Ug Lee** · 05-18-2006, 04:24 AM

Just do it dude, if you don't like what you see, let the hair grow back! I shaved my chest a fair while ago, primarily because my chest hair grew in freakish, unnatural patterns, but also because if you've got some work to be proud of, get it out there.

Plus it looks great when you're wearing a shirt that exposes some good clean, hard chest. Toss a neck-chain around as well and you'll be looking pimp in no time.

**7digits** · 05-18-2006, 05:12 AM

use clippers. if you shave, believe me the itching when the stubble comes in is horrid.

**Jester6435** · 05-18-2006, 08:34 AM

According to reviews online, a lot of people have liked Philips Bodygroom, there new shaver for your body. I saw it in Mens Health and checked out the website. The website is pretty funny so I would check it out even if you aren't interested. I'm planning on picking one of these up to try it out.

I shaved my chest and the next day my bench went up 100 pounds.

You should have seen what happened after I shaved my sac.

**NHBBareKnuckler** · 05-18-2006, 08:46 AM

I shaved my chest and felt it looked ridiculous. Maybe it is because I have had such a hairy chest for so long, I donno. Didn;t like it, growing it back...

**WillB485** · 05-18-2006, 09:02 AM

I shave my chest, even though not much hair grows there. A shaved chest looks much more defined and muscular, plus girls LOVE shaved chests. Contrary to popular belief, girls dont like guys body hair as much as we think they do

**DWhealthy** · 05-18-2006, 09:10 AM

I shaved from above and below sea level(Waist line...haha) and it felt great. But man, I didnt realize how much of a wind blocker it was. I'm not real hairy, just a little and I shaved in the winter time....dont ask why....the next morning (5am) the morning wind blew and it was about 50's...brrrrr. But got used to it.

The next time I just used the bare hair clippers (no attachments). It gets really low.

I just bought some Nair for men..gonna try that out next.

But I think after this attempt I'm just going to use the hair clippers again...then shave with a razor.

The only place I'm gonna wax is my back.

But the folks that do the chest...do you also do your arms as well. Would seem kinda weird to have a bare chest and hairy arms....:dunno:
My arm hairs are very fine, do you cant really see them...
Then if you do your upper body..what about your legs?

Damn..seems endless...might as well just do it all I guess...haha

**MAS2208** · 05-18-2006, 09:23 AM

To all who are thinking about shaving your chest/etc. I struggled with the razor bumps for a while and just bought this new trimmer that works amazing. Philips-Norelco makes a trimmer for the exact reason called the BodyGroom. Pick it up at Target for like $35, worth every cent.
