Shaving - is it annoying when it grows back

[d_rson]

I'm thinking about trying to shave my chest and abs. I've got virtually no hair on my back at all, it would be easy to just trim. But about 15 years ago I shaved my legs (and I think my forearms) for a swim meet, and I remember that it was a b&tch when it started to grow back - it would grab on my jeans and shirts and I could feel it - it was annoying. My worry is that if I don't like the results, that my chest and ab area is going to be annoyingly itchy. The hair there is pretty soft, do you think it would come in pretty soft and not be noticeable? Granted, I think I'll end up liking the shaved look, but just in case...

Usually once you shave the hair does come back more coarse. If you decide to let it grow back, it will be annoying for 7 - 10 days but then it will be fine. But if you are going to continue to shave, it wont matter anyway. Shaving definately makes your muscles and cuts more visible.

can you just use a product like Neat or something like that instead of shaving?

I agree, it only matter if what would you like. Visible muscle or a clean shaved body?
