Will I ever get chest hair?

r/

I couldn’t think of a better way to phrase the question, lol. I’m 29 and turn 30 soon. I have pretty much no hair on my chest except a few strays around my nips. No hair on my back either, fwiw. (My lower body is hairy af though – don’t know what’s up with that). Anyway… am I ever likely to get chest hair? Will the body hair I have now be what I have the rest of my life? I don’t mind one way or the other… just curious about my chances 😆

    Im 29 and basically exactly same. V unlikely mate – everyone i know with “hairy chest” or “hairy back” were thick with it by our age.

    In my experience of talking to girls about it, we’re about right – they didn’t want a body bald swimmer type, but never heard “I love it when he’s like a Wookiee” either.

    Maybe they’re just the ones who go for me cos Im what they like or whatever but think we’re pretty average and unremarkable ij that aspect which can’t be a bad thing.

    As someone in his 50s – it’s entirely possible. I have a ton more body hair than I did at 25

    Probably not buddy. I’m 34 and the amount of hair on my chest, shoulders, and back has increased. It’s all kept the same general pattern I’ve had since my early 20s though. My best friend is 35 and he’s a naked molerat and always has been.

    it will increase as you age but you’ll never be a warewolf guy.

    Genetics are a strange thing. I have grown more chest hair in my 30s but I know people that don’t have any. I think it’s possible for you.

    Genetics my man.

    Some men are hairy apes, other men are almost fresh born baby smooth(if you don’t count the peach fuzz)

    That’s how she goes sometimes.

    I’ve got a great head of hair, though it is turning silver. Minimal chest hair, no back hair, but I can’t grow a beard to save my life.

    Yes! I hardly had any when I was 29, and now I have nearly a dozen!

    I’m medium but shave it because it’s annoying.

    I would say no. Mid 40s and actually losing body hair at this point.

    I celebrated my 30th with my first nipple hair. I have like 7 now.

    Maybe by the time I’m 80 I’ll have chest hair.

    You aren’t going to get much more. I’m like you and am happy about it. I get rid of the hair around the nip which is unattractive on either gender, and keep the armpit stuff under control to help with sweat etc.

    I could be wrong, but my impression is that the cashmere jumper while naked look is not something women seek out.
