Body hair, what todo about it?


Guest

Recommended Posts

I never really had much body hair until recently. The doc found I had almost no test. So he put me on test injections I feel alot better but surprisingly I want to do girly things more not less. But a problem, I'm getting body hair, a normal amount for a male but I dont like it. I had to buy deoderant for the first time in a long time. What do you guys do? just shave it off?

Hi Lexi,

The body does react to hormones! Shaving seems to be the answer I hear most often.

Women do it too... Make it a time for bubble bath and soothing music.

(Disclaimer - I was one of those low-T folks too - not much experience with razors myself)

Love, Megan

I agree with Megan, hon. If you aren't on E, then the solution is to shave as much as you can or want to. The problem will be, that if you aren't on E the hair may grow back quickly and just as thick, and body shaving can be very time consuming and difficult if you are moderately hirsute.

.

If you can do just your legs, that will save a lot of time and effort.

Are you talking body hair or leg hair, hon? Big difference. Leg hair you can shave, epilate, or use a chemical product like Nair. Body hair is pretty much a shaving issue.

Im not really hairy and its blonde on most parts, but I was thinking going perminate on the face and chest. I kind of like shaving my legs. What I want is to grow (head)hair out abouve my side burns (like how girls have that wispy hair there) but not worry about side burns comming back...

This was not an issue before taking test but with out the test I dont want to be girly, or really do anything...

Just shaved ALL of it, took 15 min. Ill post a pick of when the cut stops bleading, I have very shapely legs; the muscle grew in the exact right places while staying a bit soft.So girls legs you would never want to get kicked in the testicles from.Could dead press 1000lbs, now all thats left are the shape and out line.

Im going to try "Nair" tonight or tomorrow, I see you cant use it on your face. Why not?

The skin on your face is much more sensitive, and, I think, thinner than the skin on your legs. Nair is likely to burn your skin, and at the very least, it would be painful. Please, just follow the directions on the package, and don't take risks with your skin.

I shave (twin blade, disposable) my armpits, around my nipples and all of my "junk". Everything else that I can reach, I epilate. I do this once a week. I even shave my eyebrows when ever I shave my face with my electric razor. My brows were never very bushy anyway so if anyone has even noticed, they haven't said a word. I really love the feeling of being "smooth" even when I feel in my man mode.

Hugs

      I'm sorry for asking so many questions about your situation. I'm in your camp and believe you should be able to be whoever you feel you need to be. I guess it the Union Shop Stewart coming out in me. I want you to be treated fairly as well as respectably. You're human, you're a client of theirs. Especially if you're paying money to be there.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I'm not sure the time frame.

      Views, terminology, and aspects of how events came to be....aren't those directly related to the news item?  If not, I'm rather confused.

      Second warning, this has gotten far and apart from the NEWS item that it started out with and is becoming a flat out battleground over political leanings and terminology.

      Welcome to Lefty Land.... a festive theme park full of sparkles and unicorns, a perfect place except for one evil orange dragon wearing a blond wig.    I'm always amazed at the "flexibility" of definitions.  One person's f@scist seems like a centrist to others.  One person's "moderate" looks to others like the 2nd coming of Fidel Castro.  A normal marriage a century or two ago is now a criminal offense, and relationships that used to be a criminal offense are now open, normal marriages.  Pedophiles now want to be called "minor attracted persons" and teenagers are now defined as children.  A Republican in NY or CA would be a Democrat just about anywhere else.  I'm certainly no advocate for relativism, these are just observations.    What I find interesting about this Australian candidate is the attitude that he shouldn't be allowed to run for office.  Why?  Just because his views are different, or even offensive?  Who makes that determination?  Can an election really be open and fair if it is barred to candidates who are not "politically correct?"  Here in the USA, we can openly have candidates who are f@scist or any other thing they want to be, no real restrictions aside from eligibility requirements related to age, location, citizenship, and criminal record.

      @Birdie You certainly have more patience than I do.  I don't take it well if I get scolded.  Either I sulk or I get nippish.    We had a good Mother's Day here yesterday.  Quite an event, since 4 of my partners are mothers.  GF enjoys it a lot, because she's very (excessively?) proud of having produced her 5 kids.  Her eldest starts school this fall.  Amazing how time flies...

      Reminds me of elementary school when a kid yanked my chair as I was taking a seat. I told him to "go suck an egg" and we both got sent to the principals office. I was like, "tf did I do to deserve that?"

      Firstly, it's nice to hear that your other half is now open to you living as you are!   Secondly, things I have noticed, having started shots just before the New Year: Tears do come much more easily I am far more tender with my wife and I like to snuggle more I have noticed anxiety has an increased effect on me I am on a weekly injection, so when I get near my next shot I have noticed feeling a little emotionally "blah" After shots I am much more energetic and bubbly Otherwise, I wouldn't say I've been on any kind of roller coaster of emotion and I'm far from unstable. So take heart and congratulations!

      Three reprimands in a certain time frame? It seems like they should drop off the calendar after a period of time. How long can they hold a reprimand on the calendar?   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Congratulations on getting the go ahead with HRT. I'm so ready for my wife to drop her opposition. As for the mood swings... I would look forward to them myself.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
    • Birdie
      Three reprimands and they suspend attendance for a couple weeks. 
    • Mmindy
      Good for the other participant. What's involved in a reprimand? At our age, what are they going to do? Withhold snacks...   @BirdieI'm sorry you have to put up with such discrimination's. I'm proud that you're standing up for yourself.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
