Body Hair Removal: What To Fix, What To Keep
Hint: Braiding your back hair is not a good idea.
By Emily Kate Warren
The Hair: Chest
The Rules
Keep it short—about 1/4- to 1/2-inch long. Use scissors or clippers to trim it “once it starts showing a curl,” says Cindy Barshop, owner of Completely Bare in New York City. Leaving your chest hairs long can cause your skin to feel itchy under certain fabrics and shaving all the way to the skin could lead to in-growns and irritation. Also, keeping a large area bare means a lot of upkeep. Just make sure not to create any sharp lines or edges, or your chest hair could wind up looking like a topiary.
