If a werewolf shaved his fur

Will it grow back quickly, won't it come back or will he have to wait for his transformation again?

Probably after he/she got regressed and retransforms again. But maybe it might just regrow within moments later if they wear hair growth or extra hormones or something.
I'm tied with this 2 solutions.

Most likely, the Werewolf would have to wait for it to re-grow after shifting...and it might not re-grow even then.
My question is "Why would a Werewolf
want to shave off his/her fur?"
Fleas? mange? Lost a bet?

It can get prety hot in the summer.

Depends on the type of werewolf, I say it either grows back right away or when they shift again.

Because tattoos don't show through fur.

Don't forget that they have 'Winter Fur' and 'Summer Fur.' In winter, their werewolf forms may look extra fat because the increase growth of fur for Winter and in summer that their fur growth is shorter.
No werewolf would shave off their fur unless they lost their sanity.

Actually, this brings around a new topic. I think that a werewolf would be more likely to go for scarification as body modification than tattoos. Scars will turn hair/fur white, so that would show up.

I would imagine it'd regrow when they shifted into the form again, so it'd be kinda pointless and a pain in the arse.

They will? I thought hair didn't grow on scar tissue?
Anyways, I think a werewolf, unless living in a world where the existence of werewolves in known and tolerated, would be
less likely to do that. People seeing a werewolf is one thing, and it's bad, people seeing a werewolf with patterns in his fur that are like your tattoos or scars? That's twice as bad because they're connecting it to you on some level.

That's true. I was thinking in a world where weres were not out of the ordinary.
Heh....where weres were
But yeah, I had a friend in highschool who busted his head open when he was a kid, and it was just deep enough to damage the hair follicles, so he had a white patch over the scar when it healed.

yeah actually you're right i believe... most of the time hair won't grow on scars... sometimes it WILL turn it white though...
I have a scar on my chin from when I was about 8 and had a rather spectacular bike accident (the front wheel came off as I was going down a gravel driveway at about 30 mph).... should have broken my neck by the way I landed, but I was lucky and got off with 45 minutes at the emergency room having them pick the gravel out and stitch my chin up...
anyway... I neglected to shave and one day someone was like "dude...part of your beard is white."
