Hairy arms?
Recently I have noticed that there many models (she) have hairy arms. Does not one shave theirs? Jan 09 09 02:25 pm Link Seriously, is this really an issue? Edit: Guess it was. Jan 09 09 02:28 pm Link My (ex) Japanese girlfriend used to shave her forearms Jan 09 09 02:28 pm Link I knew a girl who had her lasered off... Jan 09 09 02:29 pm Link I shave mine. I think models who have light or pale skin with dark hair really should. It could also depend on the project, like if you have a back light and the arm is at the side angle, the hair will show through the light and cast a shadow, lol. Also, models who have tattoos should as well, no one wants to see hairy art work Jan 09 09 02:30 pm Link The tattoo artist shaved mine before she inked me up..does that count? Michael Jan 09 09 02:31 pm Link Um. Wait. We're supposed to shave our arms now? Well fuck. Jan 09 09 02:32 pm Link My cousin shaves her arms. But she does it because she is a make up artist for Benefit Cosmetics, and people don't really like having a hairy arm in their face when getting their make up done... lol Jan 09 09 02:32 pm Link I told one recently to shave her butt.

Jan 09 09 03:03 pm Link I've noticed the same thing. I think it's up to the model to decide if she want's hairy arms or not. If the hair is very dark, it really can stand out in an image and be a bit of a distraction.

This of course also depends on the model's skin tone and the color of her hair. Some are just less visible than others. Jan 09 09 03:06 pm Link I actually have a worse problem with the callouses forming on my hands as my knuckles drag the ground. And, do you realize how hard it is to shape eyebrows when your forehead protrudes so much? Arm shave? That's the least of my problems!

Jan 09 09 03:15 pm Link Raelyn Mouse wrote: Long long long time ago I dated this girl and she don't ever shave her legs or anywhere. Her hair was so fine and thin that it is impossible to see. Even when touch, it is hardly noticeable. Jan 09 09 03:16 pm Link i shave my arms for several reasons: pale skin, black hair, tattoos, and it feels so nice and smooooth!!! an ex of mine shaves his arms too cause he has sleeves on both arms. i love smooth skin against smooth skin... =] and i do think it really takes away from a photo when an otherwise beautiful girl has noticeably hairy arms. it's not my idea of feminine beauty. but everyone has their own, right? so if you like your hair, no one's saying you have to shave. but you may find some folks who'd prefer you smooth. it's like anything else.. if one person doesn't dig it, you can be sure that someone else will.

So to see a very hairy model in a photo is a big no no to me. Jan 09 09 03:22 pm Link I have dark hair. It's a must, really. Girls with naturally light hair, both in color and thickness, generally don't see it as being necessary, and I agree. But if I didn't, I'd probably look like Miss Natural up there. Jan 09 09 03:33 pm Link I bought a professional waxing kit complete with warmer, strips, hard and creme wax... It has saved me ALOT of money by waxing my own bikini, underarms, and legs! But one day I got "Wax happy" and did my forearms now I have to keep it up and it's annoying Jan 09 09 03:39 pm Link Ha, right now I do look like Ms. Natural up there, and I've never had any complaints from lovers or friends. The only people who really care are you guys, apparently, and, seriously, I wasn't planning on screwing anyone in this thread to begin with.

I find something off-putting about seeing a woman with that post-shave look head-to-toe. You can tell the difference between shaved flesh and someone who just naturally isn't very hairy.

Arm shaving is for guys! I have fuzz on my arms and it's CUTE, so suck my baws, mmmkayyy?!

I mean, I am not hairy at all so I would NEVER do that, but maybe if you looked like a guerilla or something then I would say do it! WHAT? Jan 09 09 04:10 pm Link |
