Though it sometimes means daily maintenance, shaving is the easiest way to remove underarm hair. The key is to get as close a shave as possible by using a shaving gel and raising your arms so the skin is taut (giving you better access to the hair). Because underarm hair grows in so many directions, it's best to shave up, down and side to side.

It depends if you are of a minority then shaving may darken the underarm. Try using Nads it works on fine hair. Waxing can be another solution, which will probably be painful. other than that your left to shaving or painful plucking!

Some day I'm getting mine laser-removed. Shaving does leave a shadow, tweezing takes waaaay too long, waxing hurts like hell, and the skin is too sensitive for nair. I tried that once but ended up with chemical burns after a few minutes, which wasn't even long enough to take the hair off. Laser removal is expensive when you do it but after that you don't have to worry about it ever again.

You have to wax. It removes hair from the root and leaves skin smooth. But that is a very painful area to get it, but well worth it if you wear bathing suits r tank tops alot. And trust me you don't want to shave, it does leave your underarms black and bumpy from ingrown hairs that the razor forces into the skin as it glides in different directions and underarm hair grows in different directions as well.
