From comments on user forums it is evident that many men wish to remove back hair to avoid feeling uncomfortable or embarrassed.
In many cases, their partners also like them to remove back hair as they find unwanted hair in this area unattractive.
Shaving to remove back hair was discouraged by many personal care professionals due to the high risk of ingrown hair.
Hair naturally has a tapered end.
Shaving cuts that smooth end leaving a sharp hair tip to regrow.
If it doesn't come straight out of the hair follicle it can start to grow into surrounding tissue causing what are commonly called 'razor bumps' or ingrown hair.
They can be quite painful and especially as parts of the back are hard to reach, ingrown hairs in this area can be very distressing.
So shaving was not considered the best way to remove back hair! Now however, some innovative companies have manufactured an electric shaver on the end of an extendable handle which can remove back hair easily and conveniently at home.
It must be stressed that these devices will require a little practice.
The handle and extendable arm can be locked into various positions and many users find they have to get used to operating it while looking in the bathroom mirror.
After a few sessions though it is possible to become quite adept at using the device and many men find they can get to the really awkward areas and get a close, smooth shave.
These devices may not be for everyone.
Some individuals find it hard to coordinate movements of the hand, wrist and arm, especially at the angles required to shave the back.
So for them this may not be such a good idea.
For the majority however, an electric back hair device turns out to be a successful way to economically and conveniently remove back hair.
Here are a few tips which can make it easier to remove back hair with an electric shaver device:
Nine out of ten users found the device worked for them.
One or two felt the materials used for the device could be higher quality but generally the product was received very favorably.
Most of the feedback indicated a user must allow time to get used to the device and practice before concluding it won't work for them.
Once the technique is mastered, many men wonder how they managed before! So if you are bothered by unwanted body hair and you want to find an easy method to remove back hair, consider shaving.
It is no longer a NO NO.

Here are a few tips which can make it easier to remove back hair with an electric shaver device:
- Prepare the hair first by using a pre-shave lotion so you don't need to apply so much pressure to the shaver thus avoiding skin irritation
- Alternatively, use an aftershave product that contains Tea Tree Oil Extract which moisturizes and helps the skin.
- Purchase a disinfectant clippercide spray to keep the shaver clean and as free as possible from harmful bacteria.
