Gentlemen...

I have no wish to offend, but here's a tip. Either leave your back-hair alone, or, if you must depilate, please maintain! Stubble is VERY unpleasant to massage.

Thank you.

I'd rather have stubble than back-ne!

Nah! It's not gross, Folks...it's painful!

Hairy, even VERY hairy skin is no problem to massage (unless you have five clients back-to-back who resemble Chewbacca), but stubbly skin really tears up the therapist's skin. Ouch!

Blondefabuluous, I don't know what it is, but I've never massaged anyone with really bad backne. Just about everyone has a few blemishes, or whatever, but not a single client I've had has needed to see a dermatologist!

FYI. Chewbacca tips well.

When I was full of fur on my back I always tipped well. If for the simple fact that they had to use more lotion. Now that my back is hair free (frickin lazer beams FTW!) I still tip well, but only cause I'm not a DB.

Nice. Eww.

Roismhaire...I KNOW, isn't it great?!

10%, I'm glad you're no douchebag (but I already knew that!) Laser hair removal totally rocks! Had it done on my chin, lest I resemble one of the three billy goats Gruff. ;)

kvegas911, yeah.

Ummm... THIS is decidedly TMI. ;-)

About my late, unlamented goatee? Or the post in general? ;)

In general, in reply. ;-)
