Yes it will hurt them. to them it feels like what it would feel like if you had rocks in your shoes. and i know this cause i am a vet.
They hate it in fact, if you stroke them the wrong way they might squeal in uncomfrt.
when we do it 2 ours he squeals expessialy when we scratch his hair backwards
guinea pigs like to get rubbed in various places, it really depends on your guinea pig's personality but most guinea pigs love getting rubbed behind their ears and on the back. I think that's what you are asking. My guinea pigs love it when I rub them slowly behind their ears. They like to stretch and relax when I do it. They usually lay down when I do it and have this hazy face that has 'That Feels Good' written all over it. :P
These animals like this kind of attention. They can be similar to dogs and cats. They like to be rubbed and petted.
teddy guinea pigs have really long hair and they are very fluffy and so cuteThey look like this picture.
Why do you like to have your back rubbed?
they aren't. it depends... some pigs have alot of hair like guinea pigs and then barn pigs have thin hair that covers most of its body
When petting a guinea pig you should sit it on your lap facing you so it cant run off. Guinea pigs HATE being stroked on their bottoms. But they LOVE being stroked on their heads..... Some guinea pigs LOVE being stroked under their chin or the underneath of them.... your question didnt really make sense

When your guinea pig chews its hair, there is something in its fur like mites or fleas. You should ask your veternarian

I'm Laura and I own 14 guinea pigs and no a baby guinea pig cant have no hair baby guinea pigs get born with hair and everything (very unlike baby bunnies) so they can run and eat straight away when they are born they practically look like mini adults

No, but some breeds may have long hair like wools
Either his back is sore for some reason, or he simply does not like his back touched. It usually means he/she doesn't like their back being rubbed.
they are both rodents, vegetarians, and have a soft brush-like hair
No they have like swirls of their fur but the fur may be a little puffy
It all depends on if you like brushing your guinea pig a lot. You see, long hair guinea pigs are harder to groom and their hair gets full of dust and bedding and gets kind of nasty. But, short hair guinea pigs have more trouble keeping themselves warm. So it depends on if you are a brusher or a cuddler. If you are both, then I suggest getting a long hair and a short hair to share a cage together.
