Shaving question

Are you girls shaving or waxing your underarms? I don't want any stubble...however i am afraid about how much pain waxing is going to be. Any suggestions?

always shave, don't shave the day or two before and then do it that morning, you should be fine

Ouch! Waxing the underarms could probably really hurt! I'm a baby when it comes to that stuff anyway so I'd just shave. Good luck!

Waxing underarms doesn't hurt as much as waxing the bikini area. ouch!

try the laser hair removal, depending on how much hair you have, it should take a few treatments and its not expensive for just underarms, and there will be no stubble!!! you will probably need anywhere from 2-4 treatments depending on the thickness, and u dont need to let it grow in to get laser!!

I waxed my underarms for the big day. I let it grow out for about 3-4 days and it was long enough for the salon to wax b/c they will also tweeze what the wax doesn't grab.

It didn't hurt for me at all. Like ripping a band-aid off your arm.

Okay, I am a freak, but I actually pluck my armpits. I had them waxed once a few years ago, and it hurt so much, I couldn't lower and close my arms for a few hours. When a few hairs started to grow in, I tweezed them and it actually didn't hurt at all, so I've been doing it religiously ever since.

The schedule is weird, I pluck them and it's clean and smooth without any stubble or shadow for two weeks straight, then during the third week it's a soft stubble and I pluck it at the end of that week. It's really not so bad - I will never shave again.

I am going to shave, my armpits are very sensitive and break out if I even change deodorants.

2 friends waxed - they said it was VERY painful but worth it
Esp when the lady got in there with the tweezers - owie!
