I hate having hairy arms but I don't want to shave them because of the stubble. Also my other issue is that my mom is the type of person who even adviced me not to start shaving my legs because it is a pain and I don't know what she would say if I started shaving or removed my arm hair.:(:S

Use Veet. It last longer than shaving, and makes your body smooth. I love it. Also, if it bothers you that bad, save up for laser hair removal.

Okay....I'm 40 yrs old (yes I know I'm ancient)....but I've been shaving my arms since I was a teenager. I only need to shave them once a week. Yes...if you let it go...it can get stubbly...but if you shave at first stubble....then shave. Once I thought about going back to natural....and it grew back.....as before.....not like big foot which I was afraid of. I tired Nair.....Neet....it all burned and I hated the small. Shaving is cheapest and easiest way.
You mom isn't the one who is going to have to shave...you are. Think this thru and once you made decision...try Neet/Nair...and shave...find the best solution for you. Don't listen to all the horror stories. And the one upswing...everyone notices how soft you are....every guy I dated loved my soft arms...
Good luck

You can try waxing. But remember that God gave us hair for a reason; arm hair is not meant to be shaved off.

I wouldn't do it... Take that coming from someone who started experimenting with wax first, now its a constant battle of shaving because waxing doesn't last forever. Plus it looks more unnatural (people are always asking me questions about my hairless arms).

i wouldnt shave my arms at all but since u want to i would either get them waxed or i would just try it on one area first to see how it works, before i look like an idiot when i shave my arms, good luck though

DON'T SHAVE! if it's dark hair first try bleaching - you can do it yourself (Sally Hanssen) or you can have your salon do it.. if that doesn't work for you - have laser treatment(s) that will work - as for your legs - wax! (if you can stand it) ..but shaving is the cheapest most conventional way...

shaving isn't so bad...i shave my arms and legs everyday...you could get laser hair removal...did that on my upper lip and underarms. kinda expensive but worth it
