Full of trend this summer 2021, Smooth legs and smooth chest
More and more men pay attention, sometimes very fastidiously, to a well-groomed and hair-free appearance. For many, it is not enough to simply shower once a day and then wrap themselves in a cloud of eau de toilette. Instead, various care products are often on the very personal beauty plan.
Especially in terms of the perfect body hair here often divide the spirits. While some let "grow wild" here in the most diverse places, others prefer to shave completely.
Currently, especially shaved legs and a smooth chest are en vogue and especially in the summer brings little or no body hair even more advantages. Of course, however, it would be wrong - despite the current trend - to assume that shaving would always be the best solution. As is so often the case, the question "With or without hair?" also always depends on the personal type. A hairy body can also be sexy. However, the following sections show which reasons speak for shaving.
What are the benefits of shaved skin?
Shaved skin offers several advantages at once. Therefore, it may well be worthwhile to make a small excursion into the world of hair removal. Especially in summer and at correspondingly high temperatures, it accordingly makes sense to look a little outside the box if necessary. Why?
Advantage No. 1: Smooth skin makes sexy
In summer, shorts and short clothing are simply standard for many. Well-trained legs should not hide behind a sea of hair! The leg muscles will receive much more attention if the skin is smooth and soft. By the way, the same applies to the upper body, which - without hair - can be presented in a particularly appealing way at the swimming lake.
Advantage No. 2: Better hygiene
Hair under clothing often acts as an additional source of heat - not for nothing was the Neanderthal man hairy from head to toe. Nowadays, clothing does the former "Job" of the hair.
Anyone who shaves in the relevant areas today can benefit from increased hygiene. In connection with a too "wild growth" otherwise the phenomenon shows up that sweat collects at the hair and bacteria can provide here fast for an unpleasant smell.
Here, the "basic rule" usually applies: the more hair there is, the more sweat sticks to the body. Plus: a shaved chest, on which the sweat beads off, somehow looks more attractive than a chest with wet hair, right?
Advantage No. 3: Tight clothing looks more appealing
In connection with tight clothing often shows that almost every little detail is visible under the material. This also applies to the hair. Whether on the chest or on the legs: here it is often difficult to keep a secret.
But also the functional aspect of shaving should not be neglected here. Because: there is a reason why, among other things, many athletes also rely on shaving: in this way, the friction between the fabric and the body can be reduced! Especially endurance sports, such as jogging or walking, are thus often perceived as much more pleasant. (Additional tip: People with sensitive skin should wait at least one day after shaving before covering their smooth skin with tight clothing. Otherwise, skin irritation will occur more quickly).
Hairless legs and chest - must-have or short-lived trend?
This summer, hairless legs and a hairless chest are quite trendy for men. However, as always, it is also true that a trend does not necessarily have to be followed.
Even though shaving certainly offers advantages in a wide variety of areas, it is important that the wearer or non-wearer of the hair feels comfortable. Who is uncertain here in advance, can try this year - as in previous years and in the coming years - both variants to then find his personal favorite.
