Back Waxing
Have any of you guys ever waxed your back. I saw a guy the other day on the beach that looked like sasquach. I thought I hope I don't look like that. It was disguisting.

I have thought about it. It is weird, I get hair on my back but do not get anything on my chest. The hair I do get on my back is usually patchy and weird looking. It has not been a problem so far because I always wear a shirt--everywhere--but that may change sometime in the not so distant future.

I'll give any man that gets his back waxed props for doing so. All I can say is OUCH! I can't even handle waxing my eyebrows.

I will wax my brows over plucking them. Now that shit hurts.
I am totally grossed out by back hair I have to admit. I used to work with a guy that looked like a total yetti. Such a turnoff for me. I like my men hairless more or less.

I've never waxed my own back, but part of my schooling was waxing... My dad came in as a model and I waxed his back... He said it was SOOOO painful, but I don't see how it would be anymore painful that underarms, legs, ect... I think he was being a sissy!! If the persone waxing knows what they're doing, it really shouldn't be that bad.

We saw this guy on Sat. with gray hair and we were thinking silver back gorilla, and then it gets us thinking 40 year old virgin and the scene where he gets his back waxed was very funny

I have my back, shoulders, and upper arms waxed about every six weeks. Yes, it's very painful, but it's worth it to me, especially since I do BodyPump and other exercise to make my body look better - why not remove unwanted hair, too? I also have the aesthetician trim my chest hair with clippers to keep it neat. No, I'm not a Sasquatch (my partner is a lot hairier than I am), but I'm plenty hairy enough to need waxing.
Interestingly, the back hair bothers me more on myself than on other people - I don't get creeped out by lots of hair and actually prefer hairy chests (mine and others') to smooth ones, but I do think smooth backs look better...
