Memberso i don’t know about you other dark-haired brides, but i shave everyday and my pits always get a FIVE O CLOCK SHADOW!!
for the BIG day, i was thinking of just growing it out for a few days and shaving, which usually does a good job of lasting 24 hours without stubble… but what do you bees recommend? is there a better option??!
Memberhave you ever tried waxing…it hurts but the results are amazing!!!
Member@candy, i have, but i also don’t want to grow out my hair in august in humid MI weather!! :'(
MemberIt’s expensive and a little painful, but laser is 100% worth it. Trust me on this.
MemberThe same thig happens to me 🙁 and I don’t know what to do either! No shaving for a few days and hten shaving usually helps too! My underarms also are a little darker and it bugs me a little!
Member@jennychicago, i hate that mine are darker aswell! very self conscious about it!
Member@fontgoddess, yes i heard from gf’s that laser is AMAZING. but i don’t have the money before the wedding! 🙁
@jennychicago… i’m thinking tanning might help a lil bit… but i guess the few days of growing is my best bet!
MemberI hear you. Stupid weddings, taking up all our cash … LOL
MemberHave you tried an epilator? It’s basically like fast-powered tweezing. There are rotating parts that tweeze the hairs out from the roots. I bought one from Target recently, made by Remington. I used it on my armpits a few days ago and have touched up a couple of times to get any hairs that hadn’t been long enough previously, and my armpits are BABY SOFT! I use it on my legs, too. My shower routine is considerably shorter since I don’t have to shave pits or legs!
But I’m not gonna BS you, it absolutely KILLS when the hairs are coarse (i.e. bikini line, pits). Legs are not very painful.
MemberOk I don’t know how much it works but it may be worth a shot. Dove makes a deodorant that supposedly reduces the visibility of underarm hair. It may be worth it to just pick some up and use it daily to see if it helps.
MemberI will say that I tried the epilator on my legs and I almost I cried it was horrible!!!! But that was just my own personal experience.
MemberI plan on doing my beauty routine not even 1 hour before walking down the aisle. That way everything will be fresh and in place. I live in a small town so I won’t have to have a whole lot of time. 🙂
Memberi would say wax…but yea the growing out part is horrendous. LOL I guess you only option is to shave morning of? If you can suck it up and grow it out, I would definitely go with waxing!
MemberI too have that five o’clock shadow even hours after I shave so I had my underarms waxed 2 days before the wedding and they looked great!
