I've done hair removal on my arms four like 5 years now and it never got thicker, but I used Nair or very. shaving was only when I was in a hurry. and I only do it because the hair on my arms is super dark and thick and I'm very OCD about excess body hair lol.

I shave mine. I found it actually grew back softer and not as dark. and I don't have to shave it very often either, like once every two weeks or so, after I shaved for quite a while.

I do mine about every 3 week's, when stubble starts to grow back. I like, most people think its weird, but it doesn't make it darker or prickly in anyway. Whatever floats your boat!

I do sometimes. I am self conscious about it. I don't keep my arms completely naked but to a minimum.

Wax them first, and then shave, once it gets to the point.when you can see little dots, wax again.

I very self conscious about my arm hair, its dark and super noticeable. but I'm not allowed to shave my arms, plus personally I think naked arms are s little weird. but guess what? no one notices arrm hair! when was the last time you just thought 'wow, her arms are hairy' for me, never. hahaha. no one notices it or pays attention so if you don't want to shave don't feel pressured to do it :)

Oh man I shaved my arms when I was thirteen. Let me tell you it was an awful experience. I don't know about anyone else, but once I shaved it the hair grew back prickly and stopped growing and it stayed prickly for months! It looked horrible and they felt weird and just wow. I know people who shave or wax (ouch) and they've have better luck. Unless you really really hate your arm hair I'd leave it alone.

I shave mine every time I shower I wouldn't have it any other way. I've been doing it since I was 14 I'm 25 now I love the look and feel of soft hairless arms.

I been shaving my arms for about 8 years now.I shave like every other day ( I just go over) takes less than a min and my arms are soft:)I personally don't like arm hair (at least my arm hair) If the hair bothers you shave it if not then just leave it:)

I shave! I really don't find shaving my arms a problem. My arms don't get red or anything from shaving and they stay really smooth and for me at least I don't notice the hair growing back thicker, but I do shave very often.

I'm guessing it depends on how much hair you have on your arms - if it's super thick then the stubble will be worse but if it's fine anyway then it wouldn't be so noticeable. I just know I would never shave mine, and trust me I am not a fan of my arm hair whatsoever

Try it if you don't like it grow it back x

I would suggest not to because whatever hair you shave it grows back even worse!

I do it because it makes self tanner easier to apply so I say if you want to, do it! Especially for summer, just make sure you moisturise and you will have nice soft arms! xx
