Am one of the hairest animals you'll ever see, especially since I'm part American Indian. Thank gawd, my upper arms and back were spared. I routinely shave my body from Oct to April, at 2 to 3 wk intervals. During the summer months I don't shave but merely trim. Reason: Hair on a tone body gets a lot of attention at the beach, plus I think it accentuates my tan lines.:biggrin1:
