how do you get rid of your underarm hair?, shave, wax, or????

Question

and if u do shave do your armpits get sore a few days later?, mine do, whats the best way to get rid of underarm hair, xxxx thanks!

Answer 1

have waxed them since i was a teenager....now there is very little growth and they are smooth as a baby's!

Answer 2

Shaving your pits is fine, but to stay completely hair-free, you have to shave about once a day. Armpit hair is the fastest growing hair on your body, so no matter what method you use, it won't last as long as it would on your legs, bikini line, etc. When shaving your underarms, make sure to use a razor with 3+ blades for the best shave. Use a shaving gel as well. Unlike your legs, for the best underarm shave, you need to stroke the razor in all different directions because hair grows in different directions in your armpits. I find that by using light, short strokes you get a smoother, closer shave. I hope this helped!

Answer 3

I've shave with no cream since I grew underarm hair and I never had any problems. Shave in three different directions the growth under the arms varies. If youare shaving too hard you might cause irritation. It usually only takes one or two sweeps up, to the side and backwards to get rid of it.
Also dont apply deodarnt for about 10 minutes after shaving to let the skin calm down a bit and heal up if it cuts, it might reduce the pain.

If you have particularly thick underarm hair maybe waxing would be best, but I couldnt be bothered with that.

Answer 4

I wax. If you go into The Body Shop (I don't know if it is Melbourne) they have an awesome waxing gel. It is great for people who have skin conditions such as eczema. It is a more expensive opinion, but you don't need to do it as regularly.
Also it may sting for up to an hour after the first few times, but after that it is fine.
The tub isn't very large, but mine lasts about 3 months (and that is waxing legs, armpits, lip line, bikini line). Plus grab some waxing strips and it only costs about $39 (for 3 months).
Plus I find the ladies in there as SO lovely and helpful. They can advise the right wax for your body.

Answer 5

WAX! its way better, cuz if u shave first off u have to do it every other day second, ur underarm would be pikky and that annoyin!

Answer 6

Wax!
but u have to wait for it to grow out a little, but after waxing, ur armpit will stay hairless longer and it reduce skin darkening.
or u can opt for laser removal

Answer 7

Use hair conditioner in place of soap or any shaving cream. See if that helps. AND always use a sharp razor.

Answer 8

I normally shave coz i dont get much hair but ive been lazy this week and will probably need the whipper snipper to get rid of the hair!!

I know a few ppl who have got rid of it permanantly with laser and they havent got any complaints.

Answer 9

i prefer wax. had a professional do it the first few times, then the hair roots were weakened, so it was easy for me to do at home. about every 6 weeks i need to wax, but there's less and less regrowth every time, and it's really soft and sparse

Answer 10

Sword!!! Just kidding

There are hair removing creams available like Anne Frenche. All you have to do is to apply, keept it for sometime and then wipe it off with a cloth.

Answer 11

shave and wax both work wax hurts shaving doesnt wax lasts longer so has to be done less frequently if waxing get it done profesionally.
