trimming male arm hair

    Hey, new to boards here, & first time poster! woo hoo!:cool:

    Anyway, this is a problem that's been on my mind for some time now.
    My arms have a fair bit of hair on them:o & i'm quite embarassed about it. so I'm just wondering is trimming with a scissors is the best thing.

    I don't really want to wax/shave because no hairs would look a tad odd to me (& the hairs would grow back thicker)...I'm assuming with trimming that doesn't happen.
    Also bleaching seems to be too much hassle & expensive.

    Any feedback?

    P.S. sorry if this thread is in the wrong forum, I just had a quick look around & this seems to be the most appropreate.

    Hi and welcome to Boards and to F&A in particular. Yep, right forum for your question. :)

    I'd say leave well enough alone. Furry forearms are something I've always thought of as one of mens attractive features and was always a bit ticked off that my arm hair was fair. I know some wimmins dislike body hair on men but I'd don't think I've ever heard of that being applied to arm hair.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Your a bit mixed up, shaving will make it grow back thicker, trimming it short could also make it grow faster & a bit thicker, to thin the hair out waxing... obviously being a man & being in Ireland you'd have loads of time to get that done & have it grown back thinner before having to wear a t-shirt in public.

    Bleaching I haven't a clue of but you can buy home kits in decent chemists where you'd be done & dusted in no time & have it lightened. Best bet if your going with that option would be start a new thread on what ones work best!

    And from a woman's point of view I'd say the same as Old Goat, & leave it alone, it can't take from appearance only give well that's my view. I'd rather see dark hair on a mans arms than none at all or mad ginger hair from where he didn't get the bleaching right so he's walking around with dark hair & ginger arms .... ohh yes I have seen that from where the odd lad tried it!
