Call in the reinforcements! Here are some tips coarse underarm hair removal, laser hair removal, unwanted hair removal or how to remove that stubborn hair.

DARK, COARSE UNDERARM HAIR:

Coarse Underarm 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
• Sometimes you won't get a clean shave

Tips:

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

Coarse Underarm Hair Waxing

Upside:

• Results last longer than shaving
• Skin appears 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
• May cause ingrowns, which may be unsightly

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 for coarse underarm hair waxing and other Brazilian bikini waxing solutions and a Completely Bare specialist will be happy to assist.

• 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.
