I am male leaning enby and i still want my body hair removed
I’m a cis male, and extremely hairy. Fully agree with the sentiment though. Sometimes I feel like a 70’s shag rug.
I hate it, even though I have very thin body hair I’d rather not have it. Especially on my balls, shaft, and in my crack (butt hair is really annoying and uncomfortable).
Yes. Thank you evolution!
Some of us as transfemmes/femmes: Body hair is cool as heck and protects us! Fuck the patriarchy and gender expectations!
Heck yeah, and more power to you! Razor burn is just giving me hell right now lol
Would you like any help to lessen/deal with this?
Any suggestions are more than welcome! My legs have taken to shaving without a problem, but everything else, I can’t seem to escape getting a ton of angry in-grown hairs
Oh, well what we do on the few places we do shave is make sure they are well lubricated/softened before hand and then afterwards we scrub them with a shower poof (but really any kind of exfoliating object should work). For many reasons we find it best to do in the shower, if you have one avaliable to you we suggest shaving in it for many reasons.
Also shaving with rather than against the grain. It’s not as close of a shave, so you have to shave a bit more often, but it generally keeps more of the hair shaft above the surface of the skin which can prevent blockage and in-growth. This strategy is especially useful for the pits, due to the increased friction and all the sebaceous glands in that area. (Source: cisfem partner)
Another trick is talcum powder. The kind with menthol (sometimes called “medicated”) is especially popular for the nethers, since it smells nice and feels like a million tiny fairy breaths keeping you cool and dry. (Source: transfem partner and myself)
The ultimate trick is laser hair removal, since each round reduces the growth rate and thickness of the hair produced by each follicle, until they are all but fully ablated. But it can be expensive depending on where you live, and the success rate depends on how much melanin each follicle contains relative to the skin around it, so it’s not a universal solution.

God i hate the body hair, it’s so nice to be smooth (or at least mostly smooth). I just don’t have the patience to full body shave more than once a week, and even then that’s just using an electric razor and it doesnt get everything. Tempted to try hair removal cream, but i also have terrible dry/flaky skin so I’m a bit wary of it.
Long term? I want permanent removal, everything below my neck. Longer-long term, beard/mustache/sideburns as well. I wear glasses and headphones and have a huge head, so sideburns suck.

And it keeps coming back! Why does it grow back so fast 😫
Even as a cis man this is annoying. I dont wanna shave every few days just to not look like a caveman. Letting it grow properly doesnt work either cuz it grows so unevenly.
I have embraced the unga bunga lifestyle. There is no stress, the stress is an illusion, there is only hair. Everywhere.

I’ve had reasonably good results with epilating it all and using a home light therapy device to burn the roots. Once a week, both devices, works well.
It’s a pain though.
Unless, of course, I can turn into an anthro wolf. I guess it’s all-or-nothing with the fur…
