Should You Remove Underarm Hair?

By , 16 April, 2010, No Comment

This is not really a question or should you or shouldn’t you remove underarm hair as it is a personal choice. In some cultures, underarm hair is more frowned upon than in others so you would have to be quite strong minded to go around in hairy armpits and a ball gown. Even Julia Roberts did not get away with that one without a lot of disapproving comments from the media.

The important thing is to decide one way or the other and then live with your decision. If you start removing underarm hair and then let your beauty routines lapse you just look like you do not care for yourself properly. And even if you decide to go natural it does no harm to neaten the hair with a pair of scissors, rather than to have a full beard growing from your arm pits. (That goes for guys too!)

If you decide to remove the hair, it is no big deal. All you have to do is use a disposable razor regularly in the shower or bath and you will look just fine. It is a ten second job, not a huge chore. If you do not like shaving off the hair, however, you do have a number of other methods you can use to remove underarm hair.

A depilatory cream works well on the area and can remove the hair in a few minutes. These creams dissolve the hair right at skin level so you might stay hair free for a day or two longer than shaving.

You could also try waxing, although in this case, it is better to leave it to the professionals at the beauty salon than to try waxing at home. Even the best waxing kits do not really help as waxing your own arm pits can be tricky and it takes courage to rip off the wax. At the salon, it will be over and done with in a few minutes and you will be hair free for weeks.
