Arm hair

Anyone bleach their arm hair i started back in the summer because it's really dark there's not a lot but it's dark and i hate it but the root doesn't bleach very well and i have to do it like everyday and it's messing up my skin i don't want to remove the hair just make it less noticeable and was wondering if anyone had any ideas i read somewhere that somebody uses Sun-in but the box says to avoid skin contact i was wondering about getting a hairdresser to dye it or maybe that wouldn't be good for my skin either thanks

I think you should epilate.

I just leave mine be. If you wax it enough it'll grow back finer so it won't be as noticeable. Dying it isn't such a good idea.



I want to stay in love with my sorrow.
Oh, but God, I want to let it go.
If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see, you can find out first-hand what it's like to be me.
You'll need a symphony to give sympathy to the girl with the worst luck in town.
When I care, it curls me up on the floor and I swear I can't do it anymore.

Ugh no one should ever bleach unwanted hair, it's just as noticeable, just now it's obviously bleached. Wax it, or epilate or shave if you can't be bothered with either of those.
Or, ofcourse, just stop doing anyhitng, it's just hair.



How many ticks left in that clockwork heart?

I agree. Bleached hair is just as noticable.
If it's not that bad, just leave it. If it is bad, then epilate.




Tried to kill the pain but only brought more.

waxing is fasted than epliating and gets it over and done with faster! ut if you miss patches - beware it will be obvious! you can also buy comb-like things that trim hair shorter, slaons often use i to trim hairs before waxing, would this work for you?

you could try lemon juice in the summer... dunno how well it would work though!

My arm hair is blonde so it blends right in, It's not really long or thick or anything but you can still tell I have hair. In high school I noticed girls were shaving their arm hair off and never really understood why. My cousin and I used to joke that people with long arm hair had better luck ... um well we were 7.

I would say wax would be better then bleaching it.

ive shaved and waxed my arms, and tbh people commented more when i did than when i just left them alone

Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind.
To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse.
To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better.
To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better.

I have rather obvious hair on my arms. but I ignore the bit on my lower arms as to be honest I feel it would be more obvious if I tried to do anything to it.
My top part of the arms I either wax or shave.
Waxing it a lot better though and does not hurt at all



Let me be the one you call

Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
