First of all, I am NOT the one with the problem.
My DH has this issue with back hair, and lots of it, and it drives him crazy. He is quite upset at the fact that he is growing hair everywhere except where he wants it. Currently he is using Nair for Men, roll on hair remover and it works OK but the hair grows back really fast and appears thicker. He has tried shaving it off but it grows back all prickly, and I have tried waxing it off using my Nads but he won't let me try that again. He is open to trying anything, so does anyone else's SO have this problem and what are they using? |

learn to love it! Guapaboy was initially dismayed to find his hair migrating from his head to his back, but I actually kind of like it. Also if he has been annoying, I can pull one out to bring him back into line ![Very Happy](images/smiles/biggrin.gif) |

Its actually great for the game 'ODD or EVEN'.
When DH disagrees with me, instead of using Rock Paper Scissors....I like a version called Odd or Even. It's easy way to resolve things and either way...well, I win.
To play, just pinch a bit of hairs...on arm, chest, or....back and ask , ODD OR EVEN? He picks odd then yank the pinched hairs out and count them. If they are odd, then he wins. If even, I win.
I always feel better regardless of outcome.
Bahahahaha! Been married for a loooooong time. ![Laughing](images/smiles/lol.gif) |

One of my fave exs was very hirsute. It was like being with a big bear Try getting him to read Acordian Crimes. My friend totally changed her views on hairy men after reading the story about the acordian maker! |

Most salons will wax it off.
You can just drop him off so you don't have to hear the screaming. ![Very Happy](images/smiles/biggrin.gif) |

Laser hair removal.
Permanent and not that painful! |

You guys are awful. I was reading your posts to my hubby and he's like "maybe it wasn't such a good idea to post the question." I think the odd or even game really scared him. Seriously though, I've mentioned the laser removal to him before, but we've heard that it is expensive, you have to go a few times before it works, and even then it only lasts about 5 years. Is that true? I've told him many times it really doesn't bother me if he has hair on his back, but it really bothers him to the point that he won't take a shirt off in the summer unless I do his back first. And his skin is so sensitive, that he gets a rash from the Nair, but it's the only things that gets the hair off. |

That has nothing to do with his skin being sensitive, but that Nair is a devil-product.
Basically it hopes that it will burn your hair off before it burns your skin off.
I personally like the warning on Nair bottles: "Irritation or allergic reaction may occur with some people even after prior use without adverse effect."

isn't there an oil hair inhibitor diy recipe? So basicly after you nair, try the oil concoction and see if it stops it growing back! But I vote leave the hair for the odd even game ![Laughing](images/smiles/lol.gif) |

You know I just suggested to my husband that we try the Odd/Even game with his chest hair and he looked at me like this: ![](images/smiles/119.gif) |

I was dating a guy who had an enormous backful of hair. I used to get out the clippers and tease him that we could rent out advertising space on his back..."Your Ad Here" and take him to the beach! |

I've been going to laser hair removal every month for the last six or seven. Can't speak highly enough about it! I have lovely bald armpits, no black shadow under the skin that looks dirty. My legs have a few little fine hairs, but I can get into a hot tub without giant coarse wire stubbles popping up to scrape against my hot tub partner!
Here's the lady I use, here in Colorado:
http://www.bellapellelaser.com/index.html
She's really affordable! She hates hair and loves to zap it She says the big problem with most doctor's offices and salons is--they refuse to crank up the laser and really zap the hairs, because they WANT you to keep coming back forever (if you're paying per treatment)
My laser gal offers a price per body part deal e.g. she'd charge your husband $500 for his back and zap it til it's hair-free, any touch-ups next year are included! |

Does she do lady garden areas as well? It may be worth a trip across the pond to Colorado! ![Laughing](images/smiles/lol.gif) |

LOL I just love that phrase of yours!!!
So much nicer than "hoo-ha," my former name for it.
Yes, she is excellent at manicuring the garden. She tends the entire garden, the front, back, and outlying garden areas. |
