How to Remove Underarm Hair

Removing your underarm hair in the summer months can make you feel cooler, more confident, and more comfortable. But how do you go about it?

Women used to shave, epilate, and wax, but now laser is the next big thing. However, if you’ve never had any underarm hair removal done, it can seem a bit daunting especially if you’re a bit squeamish!

Don’t worry, it doesn’t have to make you cringe, here are a few of the most common methods used to remove underarm hair.

Shaving

To shave your underarms, you will need to use a sharp razor and shaving cream.

Apply the shaving cream to your underarms and then use the razor to shave the hair in the opposite direction of hair growth. Be sure to rinse the razor after each stroke.

You can use an electric shaver for underarm hair removal as well. It is less likely to cause razor burn and irritation.

To use an electric shaver, apply shaving gel to your underarms and then hold the shaver against your skin. You also need to move the shaver in the direction of hair growth.

Waxing

Waxing is quick, relatively painless, and lasts for weeks. Plus, it’s very affordable.

To wax your underarms, you’ll need to buy a small kit that includes wax, strips, and a spatula. You can find this kit at any drug store or beauty supply store.

Once you have your kit, simply heat up the wax in the microwave for a few seconds. Then, using the spatula, spread a thin layer of wax over your underarms. Quickly place a strip over the wax, and then pull the strip off in the opposite direction of hair growth.

Waxing may seem a bit daunting at first, but it’s actually very easy. It’s also the best way to remove underarm hair.

Epilating

It is a process of using a small, hand-held device to pluck hair from the root. It can be done at home with an at-home epilator, or at a salon by a professional.

The process can be painful, but the results are long-lasting and the hair will not grow back as quickly.

Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a popular method for removing underarm hair. The treatment involves using a laser to target the hair follicles and destroy them.

This method can be quite effective and can result in permanent hair loss. However, it is important to consult with a dermatologist or other medical professional before undergoing underarm laser hair removal to ensure it is the right treatment for you.

Natural Methods

There are a few methods that can be used. One is to mix a little baking soda with water to form a paste. Then you can apply the paste to the underarm area and let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing it off.

Another method is to combine sugar and lemon juice to form a paste. This paste can then be applied to the underarm area and left on for a few minutes before being rinsed off.
