Armpit Issues

Anyone else out there who never gets a good shave? I tried waxing but that never goes well either. I get red bumps either way.

Any advice for a super-sensitive-skinned armpit girl??

Look into lasering

I was just going to suggest this! i was having nightmares that I will forget to shave the day of my wedding and be all hairy and I felt like i always had black dots.

I get laser now, and I love it. I have had 4 treatments and i can honestly tell you that I haven't shaved in 3 weeks.

I literally have between 3 and 6 hairs, thats IT! but they are bastards! I shave and shave and shave and its never enough! I've actually plucked them before, but it hurts like hell!

Sorry, so advice on what to do.

Sounds like whoever was waxing you wasn't doing the best job or using the right wax. My waxer uses a low temp, sensitive wax. I exfoliate a few times a week in the shower and use a solution that prevents in-growns after a wax. If you want her info I'll pass it along, she's awesome.
