I'm a hairless open book, and I've tried everything from epilating to threading. In-office laser treatments keep my legs and bikini line smooth and stubble-free, but I've long struggled with keeping my pits in pristine condition. My thick, dark hair quickly sprouts ingrown hairs and requires near-daily upkeep. But I recently learned how to wax my armpits and was genuinely shocked to find out it's so much easier than I anticipated.
Unlike at-home laser hair removal devices, which are permanent yet pricy, or shaving, which offers only days-long results, at-home waxing is a bit like the Goldilocks of DIY hair removal. Using a wax strip or kit to remove hair from the underarm area offers a weeks-long hair removal solution at an affordable budget.
