How to get rid of my arm hair?

"Fat Kitty" Asked by shygirl00 about 1 year ago, 9 answers.

I have long arm hair.I hate it and I want it to be gone.I wear long sleeve shirts all the time and if it's a short sleeve,I wear my hoodie all day.Just about all the people(girls AND guys) have like,no arm hair.My mom won't let me have a life,which...

includes:having a boyfriend,I finally got a cell phone for christmas,and I can't shave the hair on my arms.She says that only professional bikers and swimmers shave arm hair,but I don't care!!! I'm one of the 3 people in my grade with arm hair.What should I do?

I shaved mine and no one thinks its weird. I actually havn't had anybody notice. But if you dont want to shave it you could try bleaching it if its dark to make it lighter.

I have dark hair and waxing is the best thing for me too. You can buy the home waxing kits and do it why ourself for a decent price.

Just like most others said... wax it. Don't shave it though.

I have dark arm hair and am only 16, it is true shaving causes you hair to grow back faster and thicker but waxing is a long process as it doesn't stay away forever. your mom is probably worried you might do something you might regret so she may have a point. what worked for me was I used a hair removal creme (any that is a top brand) and then a hair inhibiter spray which you are capable of getting cheaply and discreetly again only buy top brand products. the creme will wipe away the hair and the inhibiter will stop the hair growth gradually. some will even stop the hair growth all together. at least you can feel safe and wear all the pretty tops your want. if not you can always consider laser treatment of electrosis but it is very expensive.

Hey girl I am almost the exact same as you I am going into grade 11 and I have been wearing hoodies since grade 7 I have not shown my arms at school once between then and now whether it is gym class or summer time and its 40 degrees celcius I always wear the hoodies to coer my arm I atarted shaving my arms but I was afraid people would find it weird so I kept wearing the hoodies and now its sort of become like a security blanket for me I can't not wear a hoodie at school even tho half my friends shave there arms. DONT let yourself get to the point im at stop with the hoodies shave your arms or somthing no one will find it weird 100 bucks what they find more weird is the fact that you wear hoodies and long sleeves 24 7 I know thats how it is for me please please I don't want you to end up like me.

I'm just like a bunch of you guys. I'm 16 and have long-ish very dark hair, but I love wearing short sleeves. I've considered removing it by waxing, but I don't really care anymore. I only got one comment on it, in 6th grade. I say just don't worry about it. wink
