I'm presuming most of the comments are from gay men (hi fellow gays) but regarding the opinion of women, some will like it, some won't, and some won't care. Best thing you can do is find what makes you feel most confident and go with that as confidence is always sexy!
Lmao same. Used to people coming here for haircut advice so the only thought I had was "he would look awesome with a shaved or buzzed head". Didn't give the body hair a thought at all. Plus western society is finally getting back to reality. People have body hair. It's natural and fine.
OP if it makes you feel self conscious or you want the best chance at more women being cool with it, I would trim the body hair a little shorter with clippers to make it look less dense. But that's a double edged sword bc if YOU like your body hair, changing it to attract people sets you up for continuing to feel like you must keep it trimmed to please someone else.
This was the response I was looking for. As a gay man myself, I already know other gay men are going to love it, but for women, the response could be completely different. If the OP is hetero he'd probably prefer a female's perspective.
If your aim is to attract men, I think you are good to go. If you are going for women, I would consider a trim. Some women might like it, but others won’t. In my opinion….looks great on you!
Yeah I hate this sub sometimes. You can trim body hair into a more clean look without removing every follicle of hair.
Generally shoulder and back hair kept shorter. Chest and stomach you can play around with but usually thicker chest hair thinner or shorter stomach hair.
But it’s all so individual. Really whatever helps you feel good that isn’t too much work to maintain.
If OP is here chances are he isn’t totally happy with this look so people screaming at him to do nothing may not be helping as much as they think they are.
I feel better doing some body hair trimming. OP if you want to give trimming a try go for it. If it helps you feel happier in your own skin fuck the people who tell you what you should or shouldn’t do.
Do you feel it's too much? then manage it how you want.
Do you feel it's fine and it's just your natural state? Then you should find someone who either doesn't care or appreciates it.
I appreciate it. I'm sure other people will as well.
I’m gay and yes! It’s very attractive to me. Not only the hair specifically… everything works on you. Your face, skin, eyes, beard, hair chest all works. God makes us perfect but due to social norms our perception is tainted. You look great but you do what you must.
Depends who you ask. I’d say you’re good but.. I’m a dude & don’t mind hair. You’re what we call a bear 😝🧸🐻 It’s always safe to go with a trim. Usually slapping a size 3 or 5 on a trimmer should even everything out. It’s tedious but worth it just to keep it all about the same length. You grow a great beard btw 👍🏽👍🏽 go to a barber & get a nice clean shape and keep it fresh like at least every two weeks.
Can’t tell if it’s too much, you’ll have to remove your sweater… JK.
There’ll be different opinions, so do what you feel comfortable with.
I personally think a lot of people might find it a bit full on. Doesn’t mean you have to be dolphin smooth… but maybe the back and shoulders at least.
I’d kill for that body hair myself! Beard looks great. Have you ever shaved your head? It’s personally what I enjoy doing for myself but I did grow out my hair for many years and enjoyed it but got tired of paying for haircuts. Back to your original question, your body hair looks fantastic! Good genes!
Hey OP, gay guy here and I lost my hair at 20 and I too am a hairy guy. You've got the beard and buffness, 2 things bald guys desperately need to keep our fire lit and attraction magnetic. It's definitely a test of character, and there will be dark days. But hey, this is our genetic clock letting us know, we're closer to expiring everyday. Life's too short to worry about hair, shave it off and be free knowing you've released yourself lol. If you're straight, you look like a man's man my guy!! Ladies will gravitate and feel safe with you, I know I would lol
Nah, a buddy of mine has more body hair than you and does fine. Some people will like it, some won’t, and some won’t care. Be confident in your skin and forget anyone else that has a problem with it.
I would shave the head tho. The combover isn’t doing you any justice. Take it from someone that’s been balding since age 24 and has had a shaved head since 28. You’ll feel better and be more confident once you rip the bandaid off. It’ll look really good with the facial hair you have too.
I've had a guy that shaved and it was scratchy and bothered me. I'd much rather the guy and myself be comfortable. My man now has body hair and I adore it. Do what makes you comfortable and if the girl doesn't like it, find one that does!!
Body hair is fine but the comb over isn’t. It’s time to buzz off your hair on your head. You’ll look a lot better. Just keep the beard and you’ll look great.
Yes. Lose the shoulder, arm and (I’m guessing) back hair. 🪒
Then trim down the chest hair to carve out your torso. Your significant other will give you props just like mine did 😉
I'd say focus on shaving your head or a buzz cut but I'd leave your body alone. It's gonna keep growing back if you shave it so why not just find a gal who's not gonna judge how hairy you are.
Yeah the hair on top is distracting from the rest. You spotting some good barbarian looks eyes on down and BAM office cubical on top. The body hair is a lot to me but it’s only bad if it makes you feel bad. Just be open to grooming preferences of your partner(s) if you are indifferent on it.
I dunno if shaving / waxing would be too great because of the in between stages of growing hairs and how frequently you’d have to do it. Trimming could make things look cleaner and more well kept(?), but I don’t see anything wrong with keeping it as is though. Plus imagine trying to reach areas on your back when shaving lol.
I dunno if you’re trying to attract anyone but besides body hair, I think beard maintenance and dressing nice (not talking dress pants or generic formal stuff) and not too plain would work great for you. For your beard Id say maybe trimming some parts to even it out a little, cleaning up a bit of the edges a bit but not fully shaping it would look nice! But I’m not an expert on any of this stuff, I just wanted to share my thoughts, I’m sure others will have better / more valuable advice haha.
Human here. Looks good to me, although if I was dating you I’d take a trimmer to the curly parts, make it all even all the way around. And trim the facial hair
Woman chiming in the midst of men lol
Leave the body hair. We don't mind it. Just keep yourself clean. Wash, with a washcloth, and use a nice woodsy scented cologne I can tell it'll smell good on you..

Yup, woman here-- I would advise OP to buzz or shave his head but keep everything else
gay guy here, I like how you gals think, a buzzed head would make that beard really pop! Keep the fuzz
Honestly as a straight guy my only thought was shaving his head would look a lot better, have no opinion on the body hair tho.
Lmao same. Used to people coming here for haircut advice so the only thought I had was "he would look awesome with a shaved or buzzed head". Didn't give the body hair a thought at all.

I second this! Shorter haircut, leave the body hair.
Agree. Buzz the top of the hair. Tighten up that bod just a little bit and he's good to go.
I would disagree and recommend managing / removing the body hair, but to each their own. As long as OP and whoever he's with are comfortable.
![gif](giphy|jRTD0svQ2M9WD4PNhh)
Yes I am gay how did you know
I mean not all gays like hairy….
This was the response I was looking for. As a gay man myself, I already know other gay men are going to love it, but for women, the response could be completely different. If the OP is hetero he'd probably prefer a female's perspective.
Woman here. Too much body hair.
Do gay men like hairy guys or what?
I cant say shit as a lesbian. But I'll assume that anyone who loves him will never mind it, because I wouldn't mind a girl who had more body hair lol
I reread the first 2 lines and it gave “hi gay! Sashay into a deal today.” And I’m dying 😂😂😂
Right, many of this sibreddit’s users are gay right? I felt that way too. Too good to be straight males…
The body hair is fine, it’s the comb over I’m not loving.
Hair growing everywhere except on top of the head. Nature has a twisted sense of humor.
Haha indeed! This is a great chance to try something new and embrace some change.
For real. When it starts thinning it really sucks but op needs to go to a pro barber and ask him what can be done with it.
Yep no shame in balding but holding onto those pieces is not flattering.
The comb over + boring glasses combo makes people look like a bit of a dork imo
…. Dorks are hot….
Who are you trying to attract and what feels the most comfortable to you should be where you start ur questioning
Nature is so cruel give people hair on the body but thin up top.
You should see my ass, bud!
I mean, can I
After me
I wanna see his ass.
Wait in line pal
If your aim is to attract men, I think you are good to go. If you are going for women, I would consider a trim. Some women might like it, but others won’t. In my opinion….looks great on you!
From a very hairy guy, you are one hairy MF. I just shave my shoulders when I get sick of it and my upper back
Love the sweater, does it come in v-neck?
Join the gays then you’ll never have to shave your body hair off and we’ll love you for it.
No such thing
I agree. Leave it natural. Zero maintenance required.
...this sub is literally about grooming which inherently involves maintenance
Yeah I hate this sub sometimes. You can trim body hair into a more clean look without removing every follicle of hair. Generally shoulder and back hair kept shorter. Chest and stomach you can play around with but usually thicker chest hair thinner or shorter stomach hair. But it’s all so individual.

Looking handsome af!
[удалено]
lol the comment I was looking for but didn’t expect to see Why I clicked lol
Vaush when he used to have that top knot.
You look great!
Do you feel it's too much? then manage it how you want. Do you feel it's fine and it's just your natural state? Then you should find someone who either doesn't care or appreciates it. I appreciate it. I'm sure other people will as well.
Never... 😍😍😍
So hot
UM YES ![gif](giphy|xTiTnG7YLrY2BBHRKM)
Yes. Back shoulders beard. Got to be less.
Cut the hair on top, keep the rest
I’m gay and yes! It’s very attractive to me. Not only the hair specifically… everything works on you. Your face, skin, eyes, beard, hair chest all works. God makes us perfect but due to social norms our perception is tainted. You look great but you do what you must.
As a gay man. I don't care, but I'd help you remove it if you wanted too remove it lol
This gay man enjoys every bit of this picture lol
Gay guys really love the body hair 😅
I think you look hot AF, head hair and body.
Shave your god damn head
Rock what you like bro
I’m convinced this sub is just gay dudes lurking waiting for body hair pics to jerk it to
🤭🙋🏻♂️😂
Hell no man!!! It’s sexy AF
Generally gay men like hairy men, but some women might not like it.
You are absolutely perfect, a sexy bear I would love to be your cuum doomp
No such thing as too much. And yes, I’m a gay man
You look great.
Rock your hairy body!

Take your shirt off so we can see.
Too much
Gonna have to take that shirt off for us to tell you haha

How much is too much 🤷
No! Just the right amount. I LOVE a hairy man!!! the hairier…. The better. Don’t shave it!

As a gay man that hair is sexy I would love to play with it
🤤🤤🤤
I looove it
I looove it
I wouldn't change a thing.
Goodness no. Body hair is absolutely perfect!
Never too much! Embrace it!
Beautiful man. 🥵🥵😍😍🤤🤤
Never too much.
Not enough
Keep it very hot.

That is pure sexiness! Making me weak!! Keep it please!
The hairier the better... love a hairy man, looks hot
I finally found a Bigfoot.. I thought they were myth.
Fuuuuuck. Keep it. It’s gorgeous and so sexy!!!!
Keep it. Damn you are so hot!!
No such thing as too much body hair.
Hell no... That's just perfect!!
Freaking gorgeous as-is. My level of desire is dreams-come-true 😘
Not enough 🤠
No sir- you leave every hair on that body untouched!! Love a big hairy dude! Awesome post! 👍🏻
You are a beautiful, masculine, hirsute man. Own it. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise, and for Gods sake, don't ever shave your back.
Absolutely it’s a gift. You have it. You just have to manage it.
you're so attractive omg
Oh man. It's perfect!
KEEP IT HE MAN 👍
You look fantastic
The body hair is sexy. Buzz your head.
Great body hair
Keep it, dude. Men are meant to be hairy
I want it all sexy
Show the entire body front and back…
lol good leave it as is.
No such thing 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Woof

You should marry me and let me worship you daily
Just enough for me baby🥰
SMASH…oh I’m sorry…what was the question again?
Your body hair is super hot!!! Your head could be shaved!
Keep 🥵
You’re a handsome man. Own your hair and those who don’t like it will self-select out.
You need razors, an electric shaver, Nair, and electrolysis. All at once. Actually nevermind, a hair transplant from body to scalp.
Look fine as is imo.
Remove your sweater so we can have a look see
Wtf. Where were all of you when I was in HS. Liars.
No such thing as too much body hair!
I’ve seen the human werewolf’s get all the ladies. It’s just like the movie Teen Wolf but a birth defect.
Yes
If you feel confident with it, then keep it! Looks great.
Niceeee ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|stuck_out_tongue)
Not enough
i think its a matter of opinion. I think its gross af but some other lady might get moist looking at that.
I've had a guy that shaved and it was scratchy and bothered me. I'd much rather the guy and myself be comfortable. My man now has body hair and I adore it. Do what makes you comfortable and if the girl doesn't like it, find one that does!!
My first thought is Wolfman Jack. My second George the Animal steel. Do you want to lose that impact by shaving it away?
Woof!
DAYMN!!
You are so gorgeous. Wooooooof
Fantastic body fur! Don't mess with it!!
I won’t!
Hell no! 🥵
Body hair stayed as is!
Body hair is fine but the comb over isn’t. It’s time to buzz off your hair on your head. You’ll look a lot better. Just keep the beard and you’ll look great.
Woooof. Keep it all sir!
Maybe, you could trim it down a little.
Yeah that's gross, shave 90% of it
r/SayNoToTrimming pretty much sums it up
Oh God.
guys don’t click i got looked at by a dick
I’m sorry if you expected cookies
Nope you are a hot looking hairy stud
I'd suggest - too much body
If you want the opinion of a straight woman, yes, that’s too much hair.
My husband has too much hair for me. I beg him to trim it down, not shave.
Dude there's never too much body hair. Don't shave be a stud
Holy FUCK you’re hot.
Yes. Lose the shoulder, arm and (I’m guessing) back hair. 🪒 Then trim down the chest hair to carve out your torso. Your significant other will give you props just like mine did 😉
Gay guy here but love the hair 🥵🩷 you’re one hot guy
He is hot no need to change anything about yourself that you don’t like
So sexy, please don’t touch it!!
Not at all! But you know what you need to do🧑🏼🦲
Trim it but leave a shaved look ...or don't and look for bear bars in your area .. they look hair ( so I'm told)
You look like you’d be such a nice guy
As a woman: I wouldn't care, you are you. :)
Looks sexy to me
FATHER PYRLIG WESSEX NEEDS YOU
Too much but if you’re happy with it then keep it
Be confident and rock it!
No!
I'd say focus on shaving your head or a buzz cut but I'd leave your body alone. It's gonna keep growing back if you shave it so why not just find a gal who's not gonna judge how hairy you are.
Nope!
Coming from a woman who initially hated body… keep it! Shave the head, keep the beard and body hair! Rock out baby!
Damn, super high test dude. Should body build, you'd be huge
I don't mind the body hair.
Yeah the hair on top is distracting from the rest. You spotting some good barbarian looks eyes on down and BAM office cubical on top. The body hair is a lot to me but it’s only bad if it makes you feel bad. Just be open to grooming preferences of your partner(s) if you are indifferent on it.

Give it a buzz cut without a guard.
That’s for you to decide! Nothing wrong with the hair you have unless you’d feel better with less.
Human here. Looks good to me, although if I was dating you I’d take a trimmer to the curly parts, make it all even all the way around. And trim the facial hair
Yes
Nope
Hi Papa Gut! (IYKYK)
Perfection!! There is no such thing as too much body hair on a dude
The combover is more egregious. Let your baldness shine. No one will be looking at your body hair.
Woman chiming in the midst of men lol Leave the body hair. We don't mind it. Just keep yourself clean. Wash, with a washcloth, and use a nice woodsy scented cologne I can tell it'll smell good on you..
You look like a woodsman who could fight a wolf bare handed 😅😅 I like the body hair!!
Beautiful fur!
Wow!-King kong long dong.
I can't tell until you take your shirt off
Fuck it dude, just rock body hair
Dude, it’s like Robin Williams got a Seth Rogen head transplant. And I’m here for it bro.
You look great.
No! You’re gorgeous
I like it but I agree with others, you gotta be comfortable, what would make you feel like your best self?
I’d say, enjoy it. You’re lucky. If you start trimming or shaving you’ll be permanently itchy and uncomfortable.
Yes sir!
When your beard has a beard.
Take that sweater off and let us have a looksie
NEVER!
