    Do real women have armpit hair?

    If I went out in a dress, my armpit hair would show. So I'm wondering if real women have armpit hair. Or do they shave it and it hardly grows? I saw a real woman with lots of leg hair once too.

    How is it shaving the armpits and what do you use? Are there any bad effects from doing this?

    "Real women" do grow armpit hair. I usually shave it when I shave my legs.
    Ive gotten lazy and not shaved it for weeks at a time, my hair doesnt get as long as the average man imo.

    I shave my armpits daily in the shower and guess thats why I dont have any bumps or anything like that, not only does it give the fem look I personally dont sweat alot and dont have to use dedorant as the main reason you get body odor there is because of the hair in the first place. Most of my girlfriends and all of my ex wives all had pit hair but the legs didnt grow much on any of them as it was very fine anyway. Guess it depends on each persons genes how much hair they have and dont.

    Breaking News: Beyonce's "Deodorant Disaster"

    If you don't think the appearance of your armpits is important, check out this link to the cover of Star Magazine:

    I had a good laugh learning about this "news" while waiting in the checkout line at the grocery store the other day. I mean, who really cares what Beyonce's armpits look like? She's hot!!!

    Many women have hair in their armpits, very few ladies do.
    It takes a real man to wear a dress.

    Obviously, you have never traveled to France! YES, real women grow hair on their legs and in their armpits, quite a few have some, or a lot of hair growth on their arms.

    Does it look good to leave hair growing in your "pits?" The simple answer is never! Although there are certain males who favor armpit hair on women, I think we can safely judge that one as a fetish.

    Go ahead and shave it off. You don't even have to be CD to do it, as a lot of males are now removing their arm hair, sometimes permanently. Consider it to be a hygiene measure, you sweat just as much but it doesn't collect in the hair, and you smell a lot better.

    Peace and Love, Joanie

    I personally shave my pits daily along with my chest and face. Using sensitive shave gel made for the ladies when i first began shaving underarms, i did have some irritation but after a few times not shaving (every other day kind of thing) I've had no problems. I just follow it with a few strokes of Secret (tm) I have smoothness and freshness.

    There is nothing that grosses me out faster than armpit hair. Even hairy legs are not as gross as hairy "pits."

    15 years ago I was a supervisor in a warehouse. I got called into HR because one of my associates complained that I had an "odor". I was mortified and that night I shaved my pits. Have been shaving them ever since. It only takes a minute in the shower. I just lather up with soap and a couple quick strokes up and another couple down and it's gone. Looks good, feels good, and I no longer "stink".

    When I dress I roll the hair up under my arms so it don't show, lol, I think most women hair there, they just shave from day one, and I think a lot of men now shave there just for good hygiene.

    Of course women have hair. Most shave.

    I now get my underarms waxed at the same time as a full leg wax (just £5 extra that way).

    A lot of men don't bother as their shirts cover themselves (shirt sleeves for women are shorter - or no sleeves at all).

    But, it is not just about the appearance. It is cleaner as well. You use less soap and deodarant.

    Try shaving with a razor, but you HAVE TO BE careful!!
    Whenever I have worn a skirt in male mode, there have never been any issues at all.

    My wife has armpit hair. She has had for years because her skin breaks out bad each time she shaves it. I told her she did not need to do it for me as I did not mind if she had hair. Turns out I like it. But I have none as I shave my arm pits. LOL weird.

    [SIZE="2"]I guess I'll throw my two cents in here and say "yes" real women do grow hair under their arms! Its there for a variety of reasons just as men's are. One is to help perspiration evaporate and act as a lubricant when you move your arms. Personally, I use an anti-perspirant and don't often move my arms, so I shave the suckers off. Enough said from me.[/SIZE]

    Yes,

    I have encountered women in Germany with all their natural endowments intact !


    I kinda like the European women with all their hair....and all their raw humanity and passion undulled by the American fetish for Demure and Cossetted Femininity.

    I also like the American "Ideal".

    Kind of like: I love Musky Lamb or Goat meat, and Veal or Vienna Fingers are mighty nice too !

    Ehh oh boy more stereotypes about Europeans.
    I have not been there, but the femmes I have spoken with in France say that most of them shave their underarms.

    And yes women are just as capable of growing underarm hair.

    Gender aside, it is more hygenic to shave them cause the deoderant sticks to the skin better.

    Unless you are covered, it's going to draw attention to you in the way you don't want. Shave it( or wax it ), especially if you're going to wear sleeveless dresses/tops.

    No armpit hair here, 2x/wk in shower and now used to having clean armpits. Underbellies of arms as well, and constant trimming of tops to keep arm hair to a minimum. Feels great!

    The natural underarm hair growth of adult women varies a lot from individual to individual, and it dosn't matter whether or not they are resident in Europe. I think some racial types are less hairy than others but I couldn't be definite about that.
    The actual appearance is another matter and depends on fashion, which again varies from place to place.
    If you are wearing a top which reveals a lot of the armpit area, I think the safe way to go is shaven. I certainly do.

    Well, last I checked, the manekins (sp?) didn't have any hair there, so we can rule out the fake women.

    As for real women, yes. Maybe some don't - it alwas varies, but probably most do. You can often see a shadow - similar to beard shadow, on a fair skinned girl who shaves there.

    In my experience that is an excellent place for laser removal. It is a tender area which makes it sensative to shaving. The cupped shape makes it difficult to shave. For some reason, that particular area on me took well to laser. The hair there grows back slower to begin with and after a few sessions 5 / 6 maybe, no more hair and no shadow from shaving.

    Even if you shave the shadow can make it look dirty. One it's gone for good, it just looks cleaner. It is such a small area, so it wouldn't cost all that much. I think it is worth it for anyone who shaves under there regularly.
