Horrified by an anti shaving ad

[tlentz]

While driving in to work today I heard the most horrific ad on the radio. It was for a laser hair removal clinic and the tag line by one of the endorsers was "now I don't have to worry about shaving my neck" I almost drove off the road. How horrible would it be to not have to shave? I'm trying to find something to accelerate hair growth so I can shave multiple times a day.

Am I right?? Anti-shaving what a travesty.

Unfortunately the advertiser is missing the association of the NEED to shave with the WANT to shave. They assume that all people hate shaving or find it a chore. It is a sad sad world.

when I think of "laser hair removal" I don't think of "sweet! I won't have to shave anymore"

I think of "a laser zapping my skin?!! no thanks!"

Of course, if it could permanently remove my ear hair, I'd consider it...

Now that would be a funny commercial. " Sick of unsightly ear hair? try Laser ear hair removal!"

Depends. Was it the back of the neck, or the front? I've never heard of a guy getting laser hair removal treatment on his face, but I guess anything is possible these days.

I'd be perfectly content with not having to shave the back of my neck.

The guy has a beard and he was referencing the front of his neck. What a waste of great shaving!

Like a vasectomy of the face. There go your chances of growing a beard/mustache/goatee etc.

But, that's what BARBERS are for!

I buzz my own hair, so I have to fumble around and shave my own neck.

Most people dislike shaving, and would totally welcome the opportunity to never have to shave again. I'm sure gents in the 1940's would have done it in a heartbeat.

Sounds like a movie set in the future with all they people running around in jump suits trying to be as metrosexual and homogenous as possible. I will pass. I am all for individuality, variety and shaving.

I bet a guy that will lase his facial hair also uses it for body sculpting - not me, thanks.

We have a winner!

Well ... some people enjoy driving a car. I am more than happy when a colleague picks me up, so that I do not have to drive.

Why would it be different with shaving? Of course, just like I don't post on car forums, you won't find shave haters here. But they certainly will exist.

Okay. I concede to your point.

Never mind.

I do hope you're kidding, right? Shaving once a day is plenty for me.
