I am fairly hairy, but it stopped in my late teens and I haven't got any hairier since. I stopped growing heightwise in my early teens...

I'm not getting any hairier, though my beard does come in a little faster. Starting in my mid-thirites, my eyebrow hairs lost all coordination and started growing in all directions and rates. My girlfriend giggles whenever we see some 80 year old Welsh backbencher with wild shrubbery-like eyebrows on Prime Minister's Questions, and tells me that's what I'll look like in 30 years. Everybody's a comedian.

Hmmm, more hair on the back of my shoulders and...coming out of my ears --evolutionary purpose: to filter out the sounds of rap music and hip hop?

Less hair on the top of my head --evolutionary purpose: to make it easier to bash my skull in and thus improve the gene pool.

I am starting to get a little hair on my knuckles, but I only have a little hair on my big toe. The other toes dont have any though - not yet at least.
See, my head hair is lt. brown (was blonde when I was younger), but my body hair is dark brown, almost black - except for on my fore arms where it is like a medium brown. Its all very strange, because the hair on the various parts of my body are longer and shorter and darker and some hair is finner and others more coarse. I guess thats all due to my very diverse ethnicity, but it is still strange. Perhaps the strangest thing is that both sides of my family are virtually hairless, except for my brother and myself. My dad didnt start shaving (his face, of course ) until he was 22 (In 'Nam they called him baby face)- I started when I was 15.

yea, I'm lossing the hair on my head, and my chin beard is growing in quicker. I have no semblance of symetry in my facial hair though, since there's more hair on my left side than my right side. I am not growing any hair elsewhere, from what I can see. I'm only 19 though. (And balding, arg! Will be getting Rogaine probably in a few months, since this has been going on for a year and a half)

Yes, I have hairy feet and toes, and I have dark hair. Coupled with my short height, I was referred to as a hobbit or Frodo on many occasions

Yeah. I've definitely grown significantly more hair on me in the past 5 - 10 years.

"Treasure Trail". Hmmf. You live and you learn.

Strangely, Finnish doesn't seem to have a term for this - and we do have the term "Pillunnuolijaparta" ("**** licker beard").

I'm not getting hairier, it's just redistributing. Sadly, away from, not to, my head.

It does if you're Finnish. Okay, so it doesn't do it that well - but it does do it somewhat.

I'm seventeen and I got pretty hairy legs, but like Froggy, it's light hair, which is good. I've got a little bit of a treasure trail, and I am noticing some hair around the chest area. Hmm, I am also wondering how hairy I'm gonna get.

One benefit to being exceptionally hairy:

You aren't bitten by mosquitoes and flies as much, because they have problems getting through your 'perimeter defense'.

well, I dunno if its becasue Im hairy (Im not that hairy), but I have noticed that mosquitos tend to leave me alone when they attack others. If everyone else is attacked by 5 mosquitos in a night, I wouldnt have been attacked by any - if everyone was attacked by 20, I would maybe have been attacked by 4. Intereting ....

An advantage of hair also is that it is much harder to get sunburned. So when our hairless counterparts are dying off of skin cancer, we will be the winners of the game of evolution and march forward and continue to live (and reproduce , of course)!

Damn, I thought I was the only one w/hair on the top of my feet! I-am-not-alone!!!

Well, I was stupid enough in High School to take a bet to shave my chest...now my chest is hairer than it should be.

I've been trying to find hair thinning products...if I find one that works, I'll let you all know.

When you cut hair, it does come back thicker.
