At least they could be taught to shave.

I respond u with a question Did you want to see a saved monkey? i think not theyre hair is good because it protects them from cold and hot..that's why we people have clothes and monkeys have hair

orangutan shuddering at thought of shave cream - topic was monkeys shaving.  though it not to be a good idea and found this picture to go with it.
Monkeys are critters and usually critters are hairy or furry or feathery. They would not be very nice looking all shaved. I also like my guys to be a bit on the hairy side. If you can grow it, then do so.. Oh, and the shaver would not last with monkey hair..would dull the blades too much.
