I have A LOT of arm hair, but i don't want to wax or shave it because i know it will grow back eventually. Is there any kind of cream that i can put on that will make it less noticeable, and thinner?? because my arm hair is pretty dark.
Ive tried bleaching it, and it helps but then my arm hair roots come out and look retarded lol. help pleasee

Okay, if i do wax, will my hair grow back thick like how it is? Or will it be thinner?

I think the best thing would be to wax it because then they grow back thinner and over time, even less than what u may have now. so, try waxing but not shaving.

Electrolysis is a bad idea, they have to electrocute every hair follicle separately, it's painful, takes a long time, and if it's done wrong it will just mess up the follicle and you'll have abnormal hairs where you don't want them.
Waxing can cause the hairs to become ingrown.
You can use Nair, it will dissolve away the hair, but smells like...well like ***. Even the unscented stuff. Other than that it works fairly well.
I think bleaching is the best method, the roots may be more noticeable to you than anyone else because you are self conscious of it. It's quite possible no one notices your arm hair at all except for you.

You could get a bleach for it if you wish (one that is safe on the skin and recommended for that area), you could use Nair which I wouldnt recommend because it is harsh on the skin and can cause an irritation/reaction... I would try a patch test first (a small area to test the product to notice any reaction), you could shave but that has its serious consequences, and finally you could have them waxed!

Electroloysis is good, and waxing won't make it grow back faster. Waxing sometimes even makes it come in thinner.

Waxing is the best. Your hair will certainly grow back but it won't be as course and thick as it is now if you keep up the waxing.
Shaving will ruin your hands.

use veet rasera bladeless remover and cream. it may stink when you use it, but it will keep your arm hair off for about a month.
