If cutting the hair from your legs gives you any kind of psychological or competitive edge, then, by all means, get to it.
The other side of this coin is often overlooked, though. A lot of guys who shave to stay in top form get used to it. It's not uncommon for males to keep their legs neat and smooth long after getting out of the competitive scene. So, even though people have mixed opinions on shaved legs, if it makes you more comfortable, do you.
That's especially true if you stay in shape and keep your legs sculpted. The other top reason to shave legs is for health benefits; this isn't an attempt to say that smooth legs are universally healthier than their hairy alternatives. Rather, there are a lot of specific medical situations that can lead to shaving. Surgery is the most common, and a whole host of skin conditions are easier to treat when you're less bushy. Once again, the experience of being smooth can have unpredictable results.
More than one legscaper in the world got started because of medical treatment. A slight tangent to this idea can be found in tattoos. If you want quality art on your skin, you need to provide a clean canvas, and if that canvas is on your leg, that means shaving the stems. Even after the tattoo heals, plenty of people keep the area smooth to better display their art. So, if you're one of the many, many millions of people considering or sporting a leg tattoo, you might be joining the ranks of the leg-shaved.
Leg grooming falls under the umbrella of male grooming. And, as we all know, one of the primary motivations for grooming is sex. If a little hair care improves your results in the bedroom, why wouldn't you do it? That said, the traditional notion is still that men should leave their legs alone.
We'd wager that at least half of you reading this are operating under that assumption. Here's where we're going to turn your world upside down.
Women's Health surveyed to see how the ladies feel about hairy legs. In their poll, they found that 22 percent of women like smooth legs on their men. That's way above what most people would guess. Furthermore, 30 percent of those polled said that they prefer trimmed legs on their guys. When you add it up, it shows that 52 percent of women like some grooming level on the legs.
That means that odds are in your favor albeit only slightly if you keep your leg hair managed. Every persons body is different and hair growth is determined through Genetics, a man should not feel embarrassed about shaving their legs.
Same for me, a woman with a strong preference on me having hair or no hair is not worth it. You think shaved hair grows actually thicker? No rudeness, just curious genuninely. After shaving growth does cause hair to split and there will be two hairs from one. Shaving also makes your hair grow back way faster then waxing kinda like you trim your hair to help it grow.

I have had many problems with Lyme disease in my life. I have been thinking about getting a rid of my body hair from about my 18, about But it was difficult to do it and to be seen by my brother and parents and not considered weird and gay and future sissy etc.
So I waited another 20 years and then arranged a laser treatment and finally got rid of the hair like forever. My body looks clean and sexy to me. I try electrolysis, hair by hair, but it is a bit painful and you have to repeat it again and again sometimes.
Started shaving my legs a year ago and never felt better,even purchased a home lazer and am almost completly hairless on my legs after a year.
If I shave my upper body hair, is shaving my legs required to balance it out? Or can I just trim my leg hair instead? I guess it all depends on how significant the contrast is. If you have very hairy legs, I think trimming your leg hair is a good way to go. Shaving is not necessary. I have always wanted to do it and a few years ago I went through Chemo of course my hair came out and I went ahead and shaved what remained.
She does not like it but I love it. Nothing is better than having silky smooth legs. Shaving in the direction the hair grows will help prevent ingrown hairs.
