Ladies: DO you shave your underarms everyday?
I usually do shave them each day in the summer, but in the winter I may only shave them every other day. Of course, anytime I plan on wearing something like a tank top that would expose them, I am sure to shave them!
How about you, ladies?

Well, I used to shave them everyday, until I got what they call Folliculitus. It's a irritation of the hair follicles. You get it from shaving your armpits too often, and then putting deoderant on it and what not. I ended up having to take antibiotics to get rid of it. It was annoying really, very itchy, and I couldn't shave my armpits until it went away.

I don't shave every day that's for sure. Never saw the need for it. I shave during the summer probably once a week but during the winter it's more like once every two or three weeks. The hair doesn't grow that fast where I need to worry on a daily basis.

I do pretty much the same as you, daily in the summer and maybe every other day when it's colder.
It's so frustrating though. I'm sure it's not good for the skin to have a razor run over it everyday. Sometimes I get really sore spots from shaving too much. I wish I could afford electrolysis, but since I don't happen to have hundreds of pounds to spend on removing body hair, I'll have to keep giving my money to Gillette!

I feel the same way. That's why in the winter I like to give it a day or two of a break between shaving. In the summer I am usually wearing tank tops or short sleeve shirts that expose that area, and I don't want to have hair there during that time!

I used to try to shave my arm pit hair every day but that has changed because I no longer wear provactive clothing.

I shave every day to every other day, depending on how fast my hair grows.
Thankfully it doesn't grow fast there! Whew!!!
I like old hippy music but I don't want to look like an unshaven hippy chick, ewwwwwwwww.

I wonder if it is right to ask here since the topic is about something else. But I wonder why this trouble? I find it really difficult to shave beard everyday, so I do once in three days. But shaving everyday... why don't you just leave it like that?

I do the same. In colder weather I don't worry about shaving that much, but in the summer I'll keep myself perfectly groomed, lol. xD
