OrangeLuverr answered Friday August 13 2004, 1:08 am: Lol, since im half Armenian i can relate to ur hair problem, but since my arms arnt realy hairy i cant exactly be so sure of what i would do. I used to bleach my arm hair too...but ehh now i just leave it black. Dont shave it, i dont because im afraid i'll get those red dots on them like i do on my legs..haha. Anyways if bleaching makes it LESS noticable then keep doing that. <333. [ OrangeLuverr's advice column | Ask OrangeLuverr A Question ]

sportscutie13 answered Wednesday August 4 2004, 10:04 am: No suggestions, but, Don't shave it cause it will just be another hassel. My friend shaved her arms once and then she decided she didn't like it so she quit and now her arms are really bad! [ sportscutie13's advice column | Ask sportscutie13 A Question ]
HyperactiveMiss answered Wednesday August 4 2004, 5:36 am: Nah, this question is not at all nasty. We all have our little hair problems. lol. Yes...my mom's a hairstylist and she did waxes sometimes. At the salon there were two middle eastern girls. What they did was wax. I know what you're thinking...OUCH! Waxing DOES hurt the first time...but after a while you get used to it. Shaving is one solution, but the hair, like you said, does come out even thicker. With waxing the hair usually does not come out thicker and if you do it regularly, less hair appears. With shaving you'd have to shave more frequently. If you don't want to try shaving or waxing maybe you can try something like Nair or some other product that gets rid of hair painlessly. I don't know if it's any good though...people who have used it say that it gets irritating to the skin. So...you might want to experient with different things. I hope I helped in some way...and good luck! [ HyperactiveMiss's advice column | Ask HyperactiveMiss A Question ]
