You are limited to the actual number of hairs by the number of follicles that exist. It is genetic.
Shaving only makes hair seem coarser, since the hairs have been bluntly cut off. And over time, shaving reduces the amount of hair that will regrow. Of course, you'll have to wait until you are in your 50-60s for that to happen.

Even the though the thought of that is gross. Cutting it will not make it grow in thicker. It's just a myth. Are you gay? Girls don't go for the armpit jungle look!

Short of gene therapy, you have what you got by heridity, it will more than likely thicken naturally with age. It is a myth that cutting it will make it come back thicker.

Yes, shaving will increase your armpit hair but if you have a genetic tendency to baldness, will not help much.
Good luck.

Only a retard would believe that shaving hair makes it grow back thicker, or fuller, or faster. Come one people! Were you asleep in third grade? Sheesh!

No, shaving will not make it grow thicker. I am not sure why you would want more in the first place.
