More men are joining the tribe of men-with-hairless-armpits. Started off by professional swimmers and popularized by the likes of David Beckham, men are becoming aware of the benefits of clean-shaven pits. Hairless pits feel cooler and cleaner, and antiperspirants work much better too! Women have easily found their way through the many tricks of removing and controlling hair, especially when it comes to maintaining hairless armpits. This is new territory for males, though.
The How-To Steps:
This list provides the easiest ways to get and maintain hairless armpits:
- Shave off: Start by trimming with scissors; then shave smoothly using a razor.
- Professional Hair-Waxing: For the first time, professional waxing is recommended; newbies won’t find self-waxing their thing.
- DIY Hair-Waxing: Though not an attractive thing to do, it’s something that can be taught. You just need a few wax strips and a lot of grit. Wash your armpits thoroughly, wipe dry, then trim hair. Cut wax strips into smaller sizes to remove hair by small patches. Warm the strips between your palms, press the strip on the area to be waxed, and whip off the strip, taking hair with it.
