I know what I'm dressing as for Halloween next year.

Shave your arms up to your elbows. If anyone says anything about it say you took a cooking course on making pizza from scratch, and the instructors recommended shaving your hands and forearms if you were going to try hand-tossing the dough to limit contamination.

This guy bullshits

Yes I need to keep you nearby

Men, if you have an issue with being too warm, and are hairy, that's likely correlated. During the heat wave this summer I did total body hair removal, and my comfortable temperature range went from like 72F to 80F

But, I have both hyperhydrosis and sweat triggered eczema, so staying cool is medically necessary for me.

I'm hairy as fuck and cold all the time

How do I get more fur

Got a cat but he saps the heat from me. The animal has such cold paws sometimes, and knows how to warm them up with a human present. Just 5 mins tho, then he goes away for no reason

Global warming life pro tip right here.

Being fully hairless just makes my clothes feel stickier in hot weather. Fine hair helps wick moisture. But ya, better than being fully furry if your hair grows in like a gorilla.

It's just something that takes a bit of getting used to, but after a few weeks I didn't notice the weird feeling anymore.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

I'm covered in thick fur from my head to the tips of my toes. I usually run hot and feel most comfortable in 65-68 degree temperatures.

I did a full hair removal one summer - everything from the neck down - just to see if it would relieve me of the heat. Unfortunately, my hair also grows ridiculously fast. Not only did it fully grow back in less than a week, but it came back thicker! I now have fur patches in places I used to just have a few fine light hairs. Now I'm extra miserable in the heat.

Bonus cruelty: I was in the US military for 20 years and kept getting stationed in hot places, including a deployment to Africa and a deployment to Iraq, both during the summer. I actually developed a heat rash in Africa from sweating too much.

Hair doesn't grow back thicker when shaved; that's an old wives tale. The reason it feels thicker is that the ends of the hairs haven't been worn down yet. You can use a piece of denim as kinda sandpaper to smooth them out.

But yeah, I had to full body shave like every 3 days, so I just started using an epilator.

Hair doesn't grow back thicker when shaved; that's an old wives tale.

People have been telling me that all my life, but that's exactly what happened to me. It doesn't grow thicker each time I shave, it was just a one-time thing. But where I used to have blonde peach fuzz, I now have thick, bushy, black hair. And it didn't change until I shaved it.

I was 28 at the time, so it wasn't a puberty thing either.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I didn't start growing my beard until about that time, so it could have been natural.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 8 months ago

Must fully commit now. Fill bathtub with Nair. Take weekly baths in Nair.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago

An epilator is more economical.

My everything crawled up inside me.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

It's not all that bad after like the 3rd time doing it, especially if you do the prep right.

Weird enough, the most painful spot was my chest. I figured it would be pubes, but those weren't a big deal at all.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Reminds me of this story. Sorry for the link to the other site, I couldn't find another source quickly

[-] [email protected] 30 points 8 months ago

Thin out the hair on the arm to make it look natural...

[-] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago

Gradual fade from wrist to elbow. Problem solved

[-] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Or wear gloves all the time and really standout.

Well do the rest of the arm and then paint fingernails

It's a blessing in disguise. He's just realized he's a walking canvas. So many possibilities!

If you did what I do for a living, you'd shave up to your elbow! Without a second thought. I'm lucky for not having that much body hair.

Apply moisturizer - that skin is sensible - and be prepared for ingrown hairs. And ~~h~~itching.

[-] tenacious_mucus 19 points 8 months ago

Hitching? You mean this’ll get our man married?!

[-] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago

Every woman's crazy for the gorilla-tuxedo look.

[-] sangriaferret 2 points 8 months ago

Who said it was a man?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

That would be sensible.

What do you do for a living?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

Probs shaving arms.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

I work with substances nobody should really mess with and that implies wearing gloves for extended periods of time.

Pulling hairs out is a daily event and washing contaminants away when the gloves fail with that much hair - or any amount whatsoever - makes things harder.

I would sooner make gunpowder cotton or nitroglycerin instead.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

That is a nice fur coat you have
