Tanning and Chest Hair – Incompatible?

posted in Body Hair Removal |

I’m a man with chest hair, I can’t deny it and I’m not ashamed of it.  My wife loves it, I love it, and all the men in my family are proud chest-haired men. 

But then summertime comes, and I can’t seem to get a nice tan! And it is not because I’m using tons of solar protection.  It is because my chest hair is in the way! Has this happened to you?

You know, tanning has its benefits: it makes you look slimmer and younger (as long as you don’t become tanorexic!).  Is there a solution that doesn’t mean shaving your hair completely?

The answer is yes, I have found that I can get a nice tan if I TRIM my chest hair.  Now, this is not such a big secret, I bet you have been thinking about it.  But I didn’t do it before because I lacked the correct tool (my regular hair trimmer took some time to evenly trim my chest hair).  Now I use the Norelco Bodygroom.

To this day, for me, the Norelco Bodygroom is the best body hair trimmer.  It works great – if only it didn’t take too much time to charge… but well, nothing is perfect isn’t it? You have to use one of the attachment combs that come with the Norelco Bodygroom and pass the shaver. I recommend first trying the number three first, and then check if you feel comfortable with the length. 

Now, this solution might work best if you have a not thickly populated hair area.  If that is the case, maybe waxing is a better option to get that tan.  You know, shaving your chest is not such a big deal like it used to be.  It never hurts giving it a try. 

If you have another solution to this problem, I would be extremely happy to hear it. So please share :D
