I have really hairy arms and I am scared to shave them but do you think that Nair lotion to remove hair would work or would it make it grow faster.

Waxing will be a good help. At first it will hurt you but after some months you will experience less hair growth.

Nair would work, just do a patch test and then do the whole thing at night if you don't have a bad reaction. Shaving and nair last about the same for me on my legs.

There's nothing wrong with girls without hair on there arms and vice versa. It's preference. I started shaving my arms when I was like 13. My arms stay smooth. I love the hairless look.

DONT SHAVE OR USE NAIR. I am Puerto Rican & have hairy arm I've been picked on for like ever for them (monkey, gorilla, ape girl, etc.) I've learned to love them! It's a part of my heritage & I love who I am (:

I use an epilator to remove my arm hair it's a little painful but as long as you exfoliate its not bad n it gives you a waxed finish. It lasts long n hair grows back really thin bought my epilator on amazon

I used to have hairy arms and since I'm white completed it showed a lot so I just grabbed a razor and shaved my arms ever since then I wasn't embarrassed you should do what you feel like doing.

I also use nair. While I am not sure if your meant to use it on your arms it works really well and since I have been using it the hair are far less obvious. I had quite hairy arms before I wasnt insecure about it but I do feel better with them gone.

I would never shave my arms, only adding to my list of places on my body that need hair removal lol.

I prefer waxing to shaving. When I shaved I get little prickly hairs growing but if I wax, the new growth isn't as pokey? Also waxing really exfoliates, so I feel softer...

I have supppppper hairy arms! Super. And believe me I hated them so much! I would get teased for it! ): but then I shaved my arms and thought it looked super weird. Hairy arms is just something I've gotten more confident with and I now just embrace them. :)

I think it just comes down to preference really. No one has ever said anything about my arms, lets be honest we can always rely on other people to let us know about such things so its probably fine I just prefer it smooth but if people don't use hair removal products on thier arms thats fine too.

I've been shaving mine since you was in middle school. Don't be scared. I've never had any problems. I typically only have to shave them once a week or so.

What you could is when you get out of the shower and your hands are soaked get a towel or just something rough and rub on them hard after like a week you should have less hair on your hands

...I have not tried this yet I'm planning on trying it out tonight I just found it on the internet
