Chest hair maintenance is a necessary grooming exercise to improve a man’s overall appearance. Close chest shave and smooth abs shows off more muscle definition. Apart from its aesthetic benefit, less chest hair is cleaner and more hygienic, and discourages accumulation of sweat and grime during exercise
Here are five chest hair removal methods for a well-groomed body.
 Laser Removal
This is a permanent, but more expensive technique. Typically, it requires three to four professional treatments spaced out over a couple months.
Waxing
This method is regarded as the most effective but painful method because it removes hair from the root. It involves applying a strip and a sticky substance to the skin and removing swiftly in the opposite direction of hair growth.
Shaving
This is the simplest method, and covers any area of the body in one go with just a razor and a shave product. For a close shave: shower with warm water, trim particularly long hair, shave in the direction of hair growth and rinse the razor regularly.
Electrical trimming
Electrical trimming provides subtle maintenance and is a perfect hair removal method for beginners. It does not give a silky smooth finish, but it’s a great in-between option that allows one take gradual steps to avoid a drastic transformation. It allows one to control the length of the chest hair, not simply going from a bear chest to bare chest. It is best for sensitive skin.
Hair removal cream
This works by applying the chosen removal cream across the selected area, and then leaving for 5-10 minutes while the cream ‘dissolves’ the hair protein structure, before removing. Creams can sometimes be a little harsh on sensitive skin. Always test creams on small area of skin before applying to a larger area.
