Hair Removal Guide: Coarse Arm Hair Removal

If you're constantly arm wrestling with hair winning, here are some tips on coarse arm hair removal, laser hair removal, unwanted hair removal and how to combat from the Completely Bare real hair removal specialists.

DARK, COARSE ARM HAIR:

Coarse Arm Hair Shaving

Upside:

  • Immediate results
  • Inexpensive
  • Easy at-home treatment

Downside:

  • Grows back quickly
  • Irritation caused by repeatedly shaving every day
  • Most likely ingrowns will occur

Tips:

  • Manually exfoliate before shaving
  • Use a new razor with three or more blades to cut down on the amount of strokes on the arm that could lead to irritation
  • Shave in the opposite direction of the hair growth

Coarse Arm Hair Waxing

Upside:

  • Results last longer than shaving
  • Skin is smoother and the hair appears finer because it grows in at all different stages

Downside:

  • Waiting for hair to grow back to a certain length to be able to wax. If you are affected day-to-day by unsightly hair you may opt for laser hair removal where you can shave in between sessions, unlike with waxing

Be Careful...

Be sure that you are not taking any retinoid medications or accutane prior to waxing or laser. If you are not sure whether the medication you are taking contains retin-A or other ingredients, call us and a Completely Bare specialist will be happy to assist.

Laser Hair Removal for Coarse Arm Hair

Upside:

  • Permanent hair reduction in several short sessions
  • Less painful than waxing
  • No more ingrowns/irritation caused by shaving
  • After each treatment, you will see hair become finer and sparser

Downside:

  • In the short term, laser costs more than waxing and shaving, BUT in the long run you will save money.

Be Careful...

Be sure that you are not taking any retinoid medications or accutane prior to waxing or laser. If you are not sure whether the medication you are taking contains retin-A or other ingredients, call us up and a Completely Bare hair removal specialist will be happy to assist.
