Manscaping is trimming, shaping, or removing hair on a man’s face or body — chest, back, beard line, and so on — talked about as if it were tidying a garden. Magazines and newspapers like the word; it is informal, often , and fairly new. Some men use it about themselves without shame; some people wince at it, because the joke can feel cheap. It is not a medical or salon term so much as a media one. Though actually, the “landscaping” half is only a metaphor: nobody is planting . Older people may not know the word at all; younger readers of lifestyle pages almost certainly do.
