Just wanted to see how everybody shaves for meets or not?I heard different things on shaving:some shave legs and arms only, some -the entire body, some shave it with cream, some just get the body wet without cream, some shave DRY(CRAZY)!!!Supposedly the last helps get rid of some dead skin which gives you a much better feel for the water.Or, and another one I do not get:some shave even if they wear a body suit -what's up with that?
Well, I would like to hear about your experiences, how it feels to swim shaved and if it helped you to shave your time off too ...
Thanks.
I've only shaved shaved a few times, once for nationals when it was here in AZ. I might have noticed a slight difference, maybe a second per hundered for ***, a little more for free.
Since I'm not anywhere near getting records, top 10, etc...it really isn't worth the time, frustration, and the stubble/pain I go through when the hair grows back. I don't think I would ever do it again.
One thing I don't get is guys who shave down but still have facial hair and/or hair on their head. Wouldn't that defeat at least some of the purpose of shaving your body to begin with? Does the hair on your head create much drag, and would wearing a cap help any?
