You ever watch Malcom in the Middle? The father gets his shaved by his wife.

But i would imagine waxing would be the way to do it unless you want to do it on a very regular basis. I see the informercial stuff too, where you apply it on and just wipe it... i don't know if that's real or not though, i don't need to shave my body hair, because i do'nt have ANY.

Get a big piece of carpet, pour Nads on it, and then lay down on your back. Then stand up and have a friend peel the carpet from your skin. Voila, silky smooth back! Well, once all the scars heal, anyway...

Actually my mother-in-law-to-be has supposedly used some of that type of stuff, she said that it just eats and dissolves your skin off, that's how the hair is removed, too. yeek!!

<< take off your shirt and sit real close to the fireplace. >>

LOL, that might work, but be careful. ;)


As I grow older, I realize that I just grow too much hair all over, so I like to ?start fresh? every so often.

I recently tried a product called Magic Cream Shave, Razorless Beard Remover (Regular) from the hair care section of Wallgreen's. (I'd think any urban or suburban drug store should carry it.) It's a cream that you apply to the skin and then wash off with a washcloth in the shower 10 minutes later. All the hair is dissolved or something. (I'm not a chemist, I don't know exactly how it works, but it does.)

The label says it's formulated for black men, but that really just means sensitive skin. It doesn't go into the root, so hair grows back as fast as with shaving, but it's probably not as rough. Irritation was minimal for me. I've even put it on the nads and the taint, :eek: but not for a long time. Yikes, was I scared it would burn. I'm pleased to say that it didn't burn really at all, and it worked!

ummm spray a very small amount of starting fluid mist into a large shallow bucket. Ignite. Repeat until you get correct air/fuel ratio. Use that amount, lay the bucket on his back and sneak a match underneath. *blue flash*

I'm lucky enough (so far) that I don't have back hair, but, I did work with a younger guy a while back that had UNBELIEVABLE AMOUNTS of back hair. If he wore a normal polo shirt, it would poof out the back of his shirt. I joked, saying, "Hey, you ought to put some nair on there or something." Turns out he had at one time, and he said not only did it not work, but it burnt his skin.

What about laser hair removal? I hear of people getting hair removed from ALL kinds of places!
