Default Shaving Arms

I'm hispanic and tend to have more hair then others in other places on my body other than my head anyway, does anyone shave their arms? I do and I love it. I've been doing it for about 1 1/2 years now. I hope that's not bad and it was grow back like a man's beard...yikes. I do see a lot of girls with hairy arms and it doesn't bother them...am I doing something that's Okay?

Hair on the arms for a girl looks gross! I also shave them, but not too much. If you are shaving your arms, there is nothing bad you are doing...

Doesn't waxing it off hurt? But yes, I think you should continue to shave your arms, it just doesn't look right for a girl...

I have hair on my arms but I never shave it....Im planning to get rid of it with hair removal lotion....is it OK?.....I really wanna try sally hansen hair removal product....is it safe? becoz I dont want to shave them....they'll look bad when growing back, n I don't like waxing, coz it hurts.....my friend use the lotion n it works well.....it diminish the heir in long run n when they grow back....it doesnt look bad.....

But again....IS IT SAFE?

Thx

if you are going to try a hair removal product don't use a cheap one like sally hansen. I used to use nair on my legs and it didn't work. It just gave me a bad rash. Then I tried it on my bikini area and not one hair came off and gave me a bad rash..yikes! I'll just stick with shaving.

i shave my arms everytime i shower and it has never grown back black or thick. Maybe i'm lucky,but i don't think that happens with ur arms. I used nair once on my arms and they turned red and burned...ow..be careful! Shaving them with a moisturizing shaving cream has always worked for me though!

yea, i've been shaving for awhile now and they haven't grown back black or thick either. I love the smooth feeling after I shave. I don't shave all the time because it takes awhile for it to grow back.
