Hair on Your Forearms.

I was just wondering. I have fine hair on my forearms but they are pretty long. I've seen people with fairly heavy forearm hair and it look very masculine. I never considered shaving or waxing them, but now I'm wondering if maybe my forearms also look so hairy and manly to other people.

Do you shave or wax your forearms?

What can I do next?

Someone just asked this int he last week.......

But, no, I don't.

I think if you look at anything long enough, it will start to look weird!

No. I seldom even shave under my arms. Why are people so obsessed with body hair?

I wax and/or shave them. :) I started a few years ago and now I can't stand hair on my arms.

I like the first answer! Yes, even when I stare at a word to long, and can swear that it is misspelled when it isn't.

Is this reaction possibly cultural? When I lived in Japan, strangers on the subway actually pulled the hair on my arm and commented about it. I was shocked. I have subsequently heard of others who have had similar experiences in Japan. Females didn't have hair on their arms, but I think this was natural.

I cannot imagine shaving or waxing it. You would have to do that for the rest of your life!!

Yes, I shave my arms but luckily I'm blond so it's not as noticable.

I don't completely shave my forearms but I do use a men's hair trimmer with the shortest attachment to make the hair shorter which I like better. My daughter does the same thing. Go with what makes you feel most comfortable. Hope this helps.
