  1. Don't shave you arm hair; it'll only grow back darker.

    A lot of people have hair on their arms and hands. It nothing to worry about.

    Unless you're like... Chewbaca or however you spell his name.


  2. my sister has dark hairy arms. she used sun in which is a hair lightener or something you can find it almost anywhere. personally i shave my hands its no biggie


  3. Try Nair, its fast and easy to use. Unlike shaving it wont make your hair grow back darker or faster. Plus theres no razor burn. NEVER put a razor to your face.

    Also, that girl in the picture has AIRBRUSHED skin! They took her pic and made her skin like that buy using photo shop.

  4. Asian women don't have much hair!  You're never going to look like that!  Besides they airbrush pictures and take away flaws from the girls!  How idiotic can you be thinking of killing yourself over hair on your arms?  You are very immature for 15!  Get over yourself, hair on your arms isn't a big deal, certainly nothing to even think of killing yourself over!  Grow up, that's what you need to do!

  5. everyone girl guy watever has hair on their arms and hands thats normal and dont you dare shave it if you do it will just keep comming back darker n faster blah blah  

  6. You feel suicidal because of body hair? Oh honey.

    First of all, nobody but you cares. It might feel like that, but probably not one person in your whole school is going to look twice.

    DON'T remove your arm hair with veet or anything like that. I tried that a couple times when I was in high school, and what I learned was that the only thing worse than arm hair is arm *stubble*. It's so gross and prickly arms are so bad... and you can't avoid it. If you wax them, you have to wait for it to grow a certain length before you can do it again, and if you use the depilatory cream, you can feel it growing back after two days. Shaving is so much worse than those, so you're pretty much stuck.

    That girl is Asian, and naturally has very little body hair. Unless you change races magically, there's not a lot you can do.

    The best thing is just stop obsessing about it. Wear short sleeves, who cares? It's not worth this! You don't *have* to take it so hard. Just be confident, and you'll be super hot no matter what kind of hair you have on your arms.


  7. go to a salon/beautician they can help you for little cost. dont be suicidal. Its not that bigger deal. every1 has hair on the arms and hands

  8. if you have delicate skin use the dry skin one

    make sure you do a test on a small unnoticable patch because some people are allergic to it

    but it is good and won't grow back thicker like shaving

  9. Even at 15 you should know this...I am a graphic designer and I re-touch photos often...trust me you can never look like that..nobody can..only on screen. (duh)

  10. I know how you feel - the hair on my arms is a little long and noticable, especially when I'm cold! Luckily my hair is naturally fair so I just ignore it. I figure if any one's shallow enough to comment on it or not like me for it, then I don't care about their opinion anyway ;)

    However, if it really gets you down, there's a few options. I wouldn't recommend shaving it - I tried it once, the stubble is not nice! Luckily I learned from that and didn't shave it again - which would leave you with endless stubble and you'd be just as self concious.

    You could try something like veet, but I find that to be pretty tricky and messy - plus it could irritate your skin if you're sensitive. Also, it may last a little longer than shaving, but you'll still get stubble.

    If your hair is quite dark, bleaching is an option. You'd be surprised the difference it could make - if my hair was naturally dark then there's no way I could leave it because it would be pretty noticable. There's plenty of home kits around, but if you're nervous about doing it and want a good job doing, go to a salon to get it done professionally.

    Waxing is probably your best bet - there's home kits (like Veet wax strips which I used on my arms once and it worked well!), but you could get it done professionally if you'd rather. It may hurt a little, but only for a second and it really does work. The hairs start growing back after around a week or two, but it takes around a month (just over) for your arm hair to grow as long as it's going to get. Plus, the more you wax, the finer your hair will get!

    There is laser and electrolysis which will get rid of hair almost permenantly - but that's pretty expensive.

    Hope I helped - good luck!


  11. wax  

  12. You cant really do anything and I heard the veet doent work. It leaves red bumps everywhere even if you do everything right. So you best choice would be waxing

  13. Did you realize it's natural?

    It's normal to have hair on your arms, and your hands although usually it's not as dark.

    Veet doesn't damage skin as long as you moisturize and follow directions.

    Wax is safe but can be really painful.

    And shaving it otherwise works too I hear.

  14. Who cares.. You should NOT care what other people think of you.

  15. Just get Veet for sensitive skin, but try it out on a little patch of skin first to make sure it doesn't irritate.

    Only use it on your arms properly 24 hours after testing because signs may take a day to show.

    Read the instructions carefully and you should be fine!


  16. dont shave!!!

    if you want to use veet/nair go for it.  if you think you might be allergic try to ones for sensative skin and do a little test spot (usually back of knee is a good place to test for reactions).  but it wont damage your skin at all.  the even make some for the face.  really tho, dont worry about having hair on your arms.  everyone does.  its natural.  that picture is TOTALLY airbrushed btw.  as a graphic designer i can tell you flat out that almost every photo you see has been touched up in some way to make it look better.  

    there is also waxing/sugaring that lots of people do to keep smooth.  if you do do something to get rid of the hair, you should look into getting one of those minimizing lotions (jergans has one thats pretty good).  it will make the hair thiner/finer/less noticable after a few weeks of use, so then eventually what grows back isnt as bad as when you first started using it.  i knew a girl who used it on her legs, after a while the hair was so fine that she would go like 2 weeks inbetween shaving because it was that less noticable

  17. oh that girl is really pretty! anyways

    your best hope is shaving all your hair off - thats wwhat i do ajnd it is not to hard! and DONT use veet id does NOT work! i have tried it a few times and it doesnt work it just sits on your skin feeling acid hot and then you take it off and there is still hair on your arm! and dont just take that from me my mom, friends, and other friend all say the same!

  18. Wax It. It May Hurt But It Worth It. Wont Start To Grow Back Until 2-3 Weeks Later. Anyone Will Work, But For Really Smooth Skin Try One With Aloe Vera In It. Good Luck xx :)

  19. Unse some Big's

  20. you could wax but then u will be waxing forever...

    if u wanna feel better about it .. get a small trimmer and put a guard on it and trim it a lill start big then go smaller... but hon ... in time i promise u the hairs will get thinner smaller and less noticable...

    i know how mportant and stressful it is being a young girl in school.. but i gotta say one day all them people will be gone and it wont matter....  they can laugh now but when u get older and u are a less hairy armed knock out theyll forget .. :)

  21. yes besides that the magazine is airbrushed, DO NOT shave. that hair will come back thicker and darker and prickleyyyy. I suggest FIRST lightening because you might change your mind. Then if you are still not satisfied wax. you might need to wax a couple of times tho but it makes hairs grow less fast AND thinner and less noticable

    GOOD LUCK

    xoxo

  22. You show a picture of a woman from an ethnicity which is renowned for its hairlessness.  As a hirsute women I can sympathize.  Veet won't damage your skin but it is a pain in the derrier  to redo over and over again.  Go to your Doctor and ask to see an endocrinologist to check that your hormones are ok and you don't have poly ovarian cysts, all major cause of hairiness in women.    Sometimes though girls are hairy because they just are.  

    Waxing is a better solution, but it hurts.  Go see your doctor, he may be able to help.  

  23. ????????????????????????????ugly!@

  24. Ask your mum or a friend to come with you to the salon. As its your first time waxing, you should definitely get it done professionally. You can get a wax wherever you want so make sure you speak up. They will also give you tips for keeping the hair away for longer. Good luck! :)

  25. photoshop =]

  26. aww bless everybody has it and yeah that pic is airbrushed! look in to getting your arms sugared you can only do it in salons tho

    hope i helped x*x

  27. 1st off...your suicidal cause you have hair on your arms? or did i miss something bigger here...

    2nd...that picture, and 99.99999% of all professinal pictures you see are fake, there airbrushed/photoshoped you name it, its not real.

    3rd...hair on your arms is normal, hair on your body is normal, your not the only one and "clean" arms look very abnormal and will stand out more in an odd way.

    4th...since i know you just dont care about real life and only want to look like something that isnt real(I.E. the photoshoped models in magazines) wax it....

  28. I suggest using an epilator. My friend used to have hairy arms and now hers are smooth using that.

  29. almost all, or ALL pictures of girls in magazines are airbrushed! hha, so it's not like a face wash or anything ;D

  30. Not to be racist, but Asians tend to have way less hair then white people.

    Veet is a great formula, I use it on my hairy arms, arm pits, happy trail and legs.  It works great and it won't bother your skin if you get the sensitive kind.  

    During the winter start waxing, it might not make your hair finer, but it wil hold it off from growing for a couple of weeks at a time.
