I recently made an appointment for sugaring to remove body hair on my upper body and can definitely recommend this method of body hair removal.

I was moderately hairy on my chest, stomach, and lower back and never shaved or removed my body hair in this areas so far. I tried out "sugaring" to see what it was like. Your body hair is removed with the help of a sugar paste. The procedure can be a little bit painful, but it is definitely worth it! This method is also better for the skin as opposed to other procedures like waxing.I only had a very minor skin irritations on my chest. The hair also grows back way slower compared to shaving.

If you want to get rid of body hair and want to attract some chicks on the beach, "sugaring" is the way to go. You can read more about this method on the wiki page. It also was a motivation boost for me to hit the gym harder, because you can see progress in the gym/getting more ripped/getting more definition better if you have no or very little body hair.

Sugaring became more popular in recent years, you should be able to find services in most cities.

I've tried sugaring a few times, too. The original reason was that I saw it as the best way to have my back hair removed every few months. Meanwhile, I have moved on to chest hair removal (which I used to shave or trim).

The question is whether sugaring is really the best option in the long run. As I see it, the downside is:

• it's expensive; and
• you can't do it at home but have to make regular visits to a studio,
• so that you have to wait until removal and can't remove the hair as soon as it's visible.
  

I think they claim the benefit is that each time, the hair is growing back

• in less quantity, and
• not as thick as if you had shaved it,
• so that you also avoid a "body hair stubble" in the meantime (there is hair, but not as thick).
  

Correct me if I'm wrong. What has your long-term experience been like? Anyone else with experience here, or with knowledge whether sugaring is really a good method? I'm wondering what the professionals do (bodybuilders, models, actors, and the like).

This is how a lot of girls shave themselves here, btw. They do it at home.
