Since I have a self-imposed ban on returning to the ESPY discussion and going insane battling Ion Beza, I have a new post. Warning - this post is odd but I have been contemplating asking the panel of experts for a few months now.
Here's my problem (one among many), I'm losing my body hair. Does anyone else have this problem who swims a lot? I'm not a nutty swimmer, probably swimming around 7-8 hours per week. mostly indoors. But, I'm telling you, I am disturbed by what has happened to me. My wife is disturbed by the neighborhood women asking her if her husband shaves his legs and dyes his hair (neither of which I do).
I really didn't notice anything until I went to a party with some co-workers and was wearing shorts. The remarks have been unlimited since then. Most commonly I am now referred to as Mr. Bigglesworth, that hairless cat from the Austin Powers movie.
In all seriousness, is this a common problem? Any tips on what I can do to reverse this or mitigate it?
Very amusing!
Post-finally, I wonder if Dermaswim's slipperiness might make it a good substitute for speed suits once the ban goes into effect? Have you noticed, Debbie, that swimming is any easier when Dermaswim has been applied?
Good question! I've not tried using it right before I swim. I usually arrive at the gym 10 minutes before my early morning Masters sessions and putting it on would make me late, so I put it on before going to bed the night before. I would venture to guess that putting it on right before swimming may help to create a waterproof barrier of sorts, which might help with moving through the water in a more fluid fashion. I'll have to give it a try.
