Q&A for How to Remove Armpit Hair

You can try sugaring. When sugaring, hair is removed from the root each time. This makes the hair much finer and sparser over time. For best results, try to maintain the practice every 2-3 weeks or so. You can make your own sugar paste at home using sugar, lemon juice, and water.

Yes, this is completely normal. Since you have just started puberty, this can start to happen.

Yes. The hair will grow back, regardless of what method you use. The hair will grow back faster with some methods (ie: shaving) and slower with other methods (ie: waxing).

You should ust tell them so they can help you remove it, and don't worry -- they won't be mad or disappointed. If you try to do something on your own, something could go wrong , so it's best to just tell them.

You can try, but shaving the hair off with a razor and shaving cream may be easier.

During your first time, it will hurt and may bleed a little, but if you do it often it may not be as painful.

No, you shouldn't do that. It will hurt your armpits and might cause bleeding or infection. Instead, use a trimmer, a razor, or scissors..

Yes, but you are more likely to cut yourself or experience irritation. If you don't have shaving cream, hair conditioner is a decent alternative.

Hair cannot be removed forever, but you can mix honey and lemon juice together and put it under your arms for 15 minutes and repeat until all hair is removed.You should do this a few times a week or more if your underarm hair grows fast.

Just talk to your parents, and most likely your mom, because she would likely have more experience removing it.

There are five methods described in this article, and all of them except waxing should work. Or you could wait for it to grow out a little bit more and wax then.

You could use hair removal cream. But be careful, as using hair removal cream and going out to the beach or some place where there is exposure to sun can give your armpits a sunburn and it may turn black. Shaving is much better and easier. You could also consider embracing what nature gave you and not remove it at all.

Yes. But this may cause pain, redness, or irritation. If you have sensitive skin, make sure you apply aloe vera gel or witch hazel when finished, as the redness will go away and heal faster.

With that type of hair, you should try shaving, since it will completely remove all the hair. A depilatory cream may not remove all the hair, since it is not as effective as a razor with sharp blades.

There is no difference between male and female hair or armpits, only cultural perception. All of the methods above are available to you. However, due to your inexperience, you should seek the assistance of an experienced adult.

Yes.

Yes, pulling the hairs out will hurt, and continued use will damage the armpit. Try shaving instead.

No, there isn't. But there are cases of irritation to the skin or hyperpigmentation.

If you can't raise your arm, no one can see your arm pit hair. Just leave it alone until you can lift your arm again.

It's possible that you didn't let the cream sit long enough. Re-apply and let it sit until it begins to dry.

They should not cause the area to turn black.

Everyone is different depending on their genetics, so this may be normal for you.

Try a different method. Shaving and waxing always work. Creams sometimes don't.

Yes, you could cut yourself shaving, and waxing normally is slightly painful during the process. But if you're careful during shaving you shouldn't cut yourself. I recommend using shaving cream, and don't buy your razor for just a dollar, because those are not as good and more likely to cut you. But the pain of a cut or wax isn't too bad.

No. When applied properly and for the correct amount of time, the cream should not sting.

Expensive laser hair removal.

This is completely normal, but you could apply a baking soda and lemon mix to lighten the area.

You can get Laser removal. It costs around $50 per session. Don't stop in between sessions because it could be messy. It's not permanent but it lasts for a few years.

Try just trimming your armpit hairs shorter with scissors. It's not quite as effective as shaving etc., but it works pretty well. I have really sensitive armpits, so that is what I often do.

It does not mean anything. Don't worry; I started getting armpit hair when I was 10, and now I'm 12 and still don't have my period.
