I don’t particularly want my new profile to have that meth chic look.

    This is one of the reasons humans have to evolve past hair and become completely smooth. Fucking facial and body hair, I swear…

      I got laser hair removal all over my body* fifteen years ago. Best decision ever.

      *got rid of all body hair except for eyelashes, eyebrows, and the hair on top of my head.

          I’m a woman.

          But since you mentioned it, the hottest & my favorite men I’ve been intimate with took care of grooming all over their bodies, no body hair. Smooth and clean everywhere.

              There are few worse sensations than getting manbodyhair in my mouth & lodged in my throat 🤮

        I’d like to but many people I’ve heard said it’s a procedure that needs to be repeated periodically, isn’t it?

          It was a 3-year process, one treatment every 3 months. And no exposure to the sun during those 3 years. But it was so long ago, I hardly remember, and ever since then I’ve been maintenance-free, and free to sunbathe to my heart’s content. No hair.

            I’ve been kind of considering doing something like that since I’ve grown to despise pretty much all my body hair. What do you mean no exposure to the sun? Is it just a case of “don’t stay in the sun unnecessarily” or straight up “turn into a vampire and avoid the sun at all costs”?

              They don’t want you to get a suntan or a sunburn during the course of treatment because it will affect the way the lasers react to your skin.

              I have an at-home laser hair removal gun. It works best on dark hair and very pale skin because it uses the absorption of UV light to heat and kill the hair. It has a safety feature that makes you validate that “my skin is pale enough to use this” before it will turn on because it will burn anything dark. Hair, skin, whatever.

              It won’t work on blond or white hair, and there’s no real workaround to that. Electrolysis is an option for light colored hair, but I think that’s more invasive. Not an option for me, so I haven’t looked into it.

            Was the treatment full body, once every three months? I’ve thought about this for about 15 years but it seemed like it would take forever. Probably less than 15 years tho… This would be amazing.

              I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. For anyone who’s extremely annoyed by their body hair and has money for laser hair removal, I HIGHLY recommend.

              Best. Decision. EVER.

              I did my trouble areas which I consider full body but it wasn’t technically full body. I did my facial sideburns, mustache area, underarms, Brazilian bikini, and my entire legs.

      Body hair has it’s uses. Keeping you from getting a cold (micro clima) and preventing skin irritations.
