About
Chest Hair Bikini is a photo fad in which men shave their chest hair to reveal a patch of hair that resembles the shape of a women's bikini top. Originally introduced via Twitter in September 2013, the trend went viral almost a year later on Instagram in August 2014, following the emergence of numerous gender-swapped fashion fads like Flower Beards and Makeup Transformations.
Origin
On September 6th, 2013, Twitter user BenFindlay83[4] tweeted out a picture of a man with his chest hair shaved in the shape of a bikini with the hashtag #ChestHairBikini.
