To all ladies in myLot.. How do you groom your underarm? Do you prefer plucking, shaving, waxing or having laser hair removal? Any other ways to groom it? Any particular reason for it? Thanks in advance for answering :)

I prefer to shave, it is quick and easy, and does not irritate my skin at all. Sure you have to do it at least every other day if not every day, but I am in the shower anyways, so it is not a big deal to take a few seconds to shave. I usually put conditioner in my hair and let it stay in for a minute or so while I shave, of course if I do the legs to my hair gets a good long conditioning.

i prefer to shave my underarms. its much quicker and painless. i would never ever try plucking my underarm hair! ouch i cant even imagine how much that would hurt. cant afford having that lasering done..though if i could afford it i would probably go for it fast enough lol! waxing for me is always out..the couple of times ive tried waxing anything i end up with speckles of blood from the pores or whatever!

I prefer shaving it as it is cost effective, hassle free and not time consuming!

During the wintermonths I don't remove my hair, but I always do it when the weather gets better and when I start wearing my summer clothes. I have never tried plucking my hair, I imagine that it would be too painful. When I first started removing the hair under my arms I always used Veet. I used it on my legs, too and it worked okay, but I now choose to shave instead of using Veet. Shaving is faster and cheaper, Veet may last it bit longer, but I still prefer to shave.

I had the laser hair removal done a few years ago. My mother in law used to do it at the doctors office she worked at, so she asked me if I wanted it done. I went ahead with it. It took about 6 or 7 sessions to completely remove all the hair. But, it was totally worth it. I guess I was fortunate to be one of the women whose hair doesn't grow back. Though most women have to go back every six months to have a "touch-up". It is worth it, in my opinion!

I shave there. Plucking and waxing i find too painful. Laser hair removal I'm told only works really well on darker hair - the light ones grow back plus its really rather expensive. I'd rather not do that.
