I am curious about how other males on this forum deal with hair. If you are female, please post but don't vote.

Hair on the head is a given, I'm curious about every other part.

Do you shave/trim/wax/maintain any of the hair on body parts mentioned?

I hope this poll worked.

Tried to trim my nose hair with one of those nose hair trimmer attachments. Never again... it didnt as much trim as it just ripped the hairs out of my nose.

I shave some of my foot fur. It's just strange having a circular hair patch sitting on my feet. The area around it is bare.

I like to trim my pubes into a topiary of fun and intrigue. I shaped my ass hair into a dinosaur.

Unless you're a woman, you shouldn't touching your leg or armpit hair.

btw-does it count that I yank out these strange hairs of unknown origin that are growing out of my eyebrows these days? Getting old is hell.

Would it be manly if I said that I used needle nose pliers?

I pull my nose hair out so I voted yes for it. Thats one of the most painful things. Nothing like grabbing a chunk of nose hair and ripping it out to bring a tear to your eye.

And they are amazingly thick. I should donate some for hair transplant recipients.

A lot of guys who are heavily into sports shave their legs. How many MMA guys do you see with hairy legs? Not many.

If not the whole leg then at least from ankle to calf. Nothing like getting your ankle taped every day and then having it rip off your hair when taking it off.

I'm very much into cycling and I shave my legs. Lot's of cyclists shave their legs. Easier to rub in warm-up gels and massage oil. It's also easier to take care of road rash after a crash.

Wow, I wasn't aware that the metro population was so well represented on ATOT.

I shave my face, sometimes pluck nose hairs that seem to be hanging out

I occasionally have this extra extra long hair on my back that grows blonde (I am brown and have black hair). I can sometimes grab and pull that one out whenever its long.

Armpits I do occasionally because they get too sweaty/itchy

Beard - shave every other day

Head - trim with #2 on back/sides, #3 on top

Nether regions - trim with no-guard (#0)

Chest - don't have an abundance of chest hair, but what i do have I trim with beard trimmer

Nose - pluck anything that seems to be getting too long

Arms/Arm pits - nothing

Legs - I go over it with a #3 every once in a while just to make sure its all even.

Back - If I notice any stray hairs, ill trim them off with a beard trimmer

Eyebrows - nothing yet... if I ever get any long hairs im sure ill pluck them

I'm a pretty hairy guy, so I take care of it. I have bushy eyebrows, so I have them trimmed from time to time when I get my haircut. I cut or yank out a few nose hairs. Not much hair on my back, but there are a few I get rid of. I have shaved my chest in the past, but just trim now. I also trim my goods.

While I agree with legs, I cut my armpit hair on occasion. I do not shave, but cutting it shorter reduces how ridiculously sweaty I get!

I've never understood why people spend money on those things. Just use a pair of small grooming scissors.

I have a little beard and mustache that I keep trimmed - but I suppose I only really clean it up a couple of times a week. For a long while I got that unibrow thing going on, but I then I started to get it waxed and now there is no more unibrow. However I do have to pluck out stray hairs on occasion.

I have crazy hairy armpits so I keep those trimmed. I don't go crazy and make it baby smooth, but I do run a guard-less trimmer over the pits followed by a razor. If I do not keep them trimmed it can get so bushy that deodorant/antiperspirant will not actually get on my skin but just hang out on the hair. It's a bad sight.

I do keep the nether regions trimmed .. . fiancee gets upset if things get too wild down there.

I voted yes on other since the back of my shoulders grows single random hairs that I shave off.

BTW, if you voted yes for nether regions, there is a box at the door for you to drop off your man card on your way out. At least there are certain sports that can justify legs.
