Men, if you have an issue with being too warm, and are hairy, that's likely correlated. During the heat wave this summer I did total body hair removal, and my comfortable temperature range went from like 72F to 80F
But, I have both hyperhydrosis and sweat triggered eczema, so staying cool is medically necessary for me.
I'm hairy as fuck and cold all the time
How do I get more fur
Fur suit
Hirsute
Acquire pets.
Got a cat but he saps the heat from me. The animal has such cold paws sometimes, and knows how to warm them up with a human present. Just 5 mins tho, then he goes away for no reason
55 gallon drum of Rogaine
Hair transplant
Hair transplants work by redistributing hair from somewhere else on your body tho. So I would be even colder there
Maybe have it donated by someone who's too hot and want less fur?
It'll just get rejected and they'd have to amputate. Or shave.
Global warming life pro tip right here.
Being fully hairless just makes my clothes feel stickier in hot weather. Fine hair helps wick moisture. But ya, better than being fully furry if your hair grows in like a gorilla.
It's just something that takes a bit of getting used to, but after a few weeks I didn't notice the weird feeling anymore.
I'm covered in thick fur from my head to the tips of my toes. I usually run hot and feel most comfortable in 65-68 degree temperatures.
I did a full hair removal one summer - everything from the neck down - just to see if it would relieve me of the heat. Unfortunately, my hair also grows ridiculously fast. Not only did it fully grow back in less than a week, but it came back thicker! I now have fur patches in places I used to just have a few fine light hairs. Now I'm extra miserable in the heat.
Bonus cruelty: I was in the US military for 20 years and kept getting stationed in hot places, including a deployment to Africa and a deployment to Iraq, both during the summer. I actually developed a heat rash in Africa from sweating too much.
Hair doesn't grow back thicker when shaved; that's an old wives tale. The reason it feels thicker is that the ends of the hairs haven't been worn down yet. You can use a piece of denim as kinda sandpaper to smooth them out.
But yeah, I had to full body shave like every 3 days, so I just started using an epilator.

People have been telling me that all my life, but that's exactly what happened to me. It doesn't grow thicker each time I shave, it was just a one-time thing. But where I used to have blonde peach fuzz, I now have thick, bushy, black hair. And it didn't change until I shaved it.
I was 28 at the time, so it wasn't a puberty thing either.
I didn't start growing my beard until about that time, so it could have been natural.
