Thread: Chest shaving

Probably varies from person to person based on hair type and your tendency for (Googles) Folliculitis.

I'm a hairy fucker and I just make sure to use a ton of shaving cream, hot hot water, and a good razor as well as lotion that bitch up... Got ingrown hairs and a rash for the first few times but then after a while it was g2g

I get the same thing the first couple days after shaving my chest, I just put neosporn on it

You will think I'm crazy, but get this shit called coochy cream. It's a shaving lotion, best shit ever! Also get you a body groom by norelco they work good everywhere and you can shave dry with em..........

+1 for the groomer.

Have you looked into clippers first and then shaving? Me personally, during the warm weather months, legs would be shaved (bike rider/runner) but the rest could be managed ok with clippers.

Also, try to see which way your hair grows and either go with or against the grain. Apply a thin layer of shaving cream (but dont rub it in) and let the razor do the work. Make sure you have a fresh blade and let it just glide. I have a very sensitive face and after changing up my shaving routine, razor burn has decreased.

I played football and ran sprints for my college, was always getting taped or treatment on something so I just started shaving arm, legs, etc.. The groomer is awesome, you can use body wash while in the shower too it's wet or dry.....

cooooooooooool.

For me its hot water, shaving cream and good ravors, i rarely ever get ingrown hairs somtimes razor burn but sometimes if i go fast i do. My problem area is ALWYAS the area uder my belly button and the pubic area above my shit. I always get that red bumpy razor rash shit and it looks so unatractive i think im joining the shave myt chest and train nair for men down there

Maybe I should have been more specific. The direction of hair growth will determine how you shave. If you have been going against the grain, switching it up MIGHT take some time to get a smoother shave.

Take a look at this website and the tips it has -

You still get and may get more ingrown hairs with waxing. You need to take soak in bath every couple days, scrub with something that will open up the hair follicles and moisturize all the time. Pain in the ass but hair does grow in softer and the wife loves how soft you feel. Overall I wax but I have my wife do it while we listen to country music and take shot of flavored Vodka.

There is this guy at the gym I go to who does this, he is a total douche bag and anytime I hear about someone doing this or trying it, just makes me think of him and I begin to stereotype. It's not right but it is what it is.

I only grow copious amounts of hair around my cock and asshole. True story.
I just trim my dick hair with scissors. Another true story.
No homo.

Hey no harm done. When you are on a carbon fiber time trial bike and your ONLY objective is to beat the clock, you use any advantage you can. I am not short enough nor could I maintain a weight low enough to be a climber. Being a sprinter didn't interest me either.

I don't do it anymore because I cannot dedicate 100% to my training like I used to. Now, I am hairy as f^ck.

If that is the case, you can have the card back for the meantime anyhow.

trimmers is all you need.. they cut close enough.. I am a hairy fuker too... 35 years old and been shaving my whole bod since i was 18 or so... trimmers are the way to go.. just make sure you get good ones....
