Hairy body art sounds scary, and for some people, this type of chest and back hair grooming truly is frightening.

The hairy body art featured in this gallery features people who have treated their bodies as temporary and canvases and shaved or waxes their hair to create all sorts of different patterns and designs.

From chest hair initials to jersey number back hair, this hairy body art is a great, cheap way to express your quirky side, without the permanence of a tattoo.
