I'm not talking about under arms I'm talking about your lower arms. I had freinds in school who did that.

My friend is part mexican and she shaves her arms because they really are very hairy, and I don't see anything wrong with it. Its just like shaving any other area of your body to me. :D

My friend has hardly any hair on her arms and she overreacts. Everyone has hair on their arms even if it's really small and unseen-able. But if it's a lot than I would also suggest a hair removal. The reason I don't suggest shaving is because it will make the hair grow faster, grow more and it will grow differently in a way you may not like the way it grows back. Looks darker and fuller. Believe me you better with a hair removal. Nair is aight but too expensive. Veet is good, fast and under $5. Takes all the hair under 3 min and takes a while before it grows back.

you have to be careful. you can develop ingrown hairs. shaving also makes your arms itch very badly because of the hair growing back. You are also more susceptible to infections.
If you are feeling self conscience about your arm hair I would first try trimming it down or thinning it out before you shave it all the way. once you shave - it will just grow back thicker.
but- if you feel its the best solution for you I would use a hair removal cream such as Nair.

well you could do it but it would be a pain in the butt and plus if you forgot to shave them your arms would be prickly. And if you decide you don't want to shave them anymore then your hair will grow back dark and thicker then it was.

arm hairs are usually naturally thin. they won't grow back longer, thicker, or prickly. test it on a small section. you'll see it's harmless. whats the difference between shaving your arms or your legs?

You can shave but you'll have to do it almost every other day otherwise they will feel all prickly and stubbily. I your gonna remove that hair i recommend waxing instead, it may hurt a little but it lasts longer

Why would you want to? We have enough to shave already. Under arms, legs and bikini areas. That is enough already!

WHY?????? If you think your arms are too hairy then go ahead but use a hair remover like Nair or Neet
