Stop! Is it true that plucking hair the wrong way can cause dark underarms?

Posted by

____Dark underarms are a persistent problem that bothers women of all ages and generations. It's not just genetics that causes dark underarms; improper hair removal can also lead to dark underarms. But don't believe it just yet, because dark underarms can be caused by many factors. First, let's understand that dark underarms can result from several different causes.

  • Satire
    Just walking with your arms swinging. Even ordinary things can cause dark underarms. This is due to friction between the skin and clothing, especially in overweight individuals, where the skin under the arms experiences more friction than usual.
  • Choosing products to use on the armpits.
    If you use roll-on or spray deodorant. If a product contains perfume or alcohol, it can cause underarm darkening.
  • The dead skin cells didn't all come off.
    Not cleaning the underarms properly can also cause dark underarms. The accumulation of dead skin cells leads to bacterial growth and unpleasant odors.
  • Do you have any pre-existing medical conditions or health problems?
    For example, skin allergies or diabetes can also cause dark underarms.
  • Abnormal hormone levels.
    This often occurs in pregnant women or teenagers. During this time, estrogen and progesterone hormones fluctuate and become imbalanced, causing the body to produce too much melanocytes, which are pigment cells, resulting in darker skin.

Why does improper hair removal cause dark underarms?

____The reason why plucking or shaving underarm hair causes dark underarms is that if done incorrectly, the hair follicles in that area become inflamed, swollen, and red. This inflammation is not visible to the naked eye and can lead to ingrown hairs. Repeatedly doing this causes constant friction, resulting in dark underarms, uneven skin texture (like chicken skin), thinning skin, and a higher risk of infection in the future. The underarms may become scarred and never return to their smooth state.

____Alternatively, many people prefer waxing because hair regrowth is slower than shaving and it takes less time than plucking each hair. However, if you don't do your research properly or wax incorrectly, repeatedly waxing can cause inflammation, swelling, redness, darkening of the armpit skin, and even infection.

What is the correct way to remove hair?

  • Withdrawal
    ____An electric epilator is recommended for faster hair removal and less pain, but you can continue using tweezers. Start by cleaning the device before and after each use. Apply a warm, damp cloth to your armpit for about 5 minutes before epilating to make hair removal easier. Use a mirror for better visibility while epilating and try to keep the skin taut. Position the tweezers or epilator as close to the armpit as possible before gently pulling the hair out.
  • Shaving
    ____Always check the razor blade to ensure it's clean and rust-free. Apply a warm compress to your armpit for 2-3 minutes, then apply shaving gel and leave it on for 5 minutes. Shave slowly and avoid applying too much pressure, as this can cause cuts. Afterwards, clean your armpit with soap and apply a moisturizing cream to prevent dryness. Replace your razor blade regularly; a dull or rusty blade can cause cuts and infections.
  • Waxing
    ____Choose a wax that is FDA-approved and suitable for your skin type. Test the wax thoroughly before use by applying a small, coin-sized amount to the inside of your elbow. Avoid contact with water or sweat for approximately 48 hours. If no redness or rash appears, you are not allergic. It's recommended to wait until your underarm hair is longer than 1 centimeter before waxing; short hairs may result in an uneven waxing finish. Apply the wax strip firmly to your underarm and pull it off in one go. After waxing, use a toner containing chamomile to cleanse your skin, which can help reduce redness and swelling.

____Even if we know the correct ways to pluck, shave, and wax, these methods don't completely eliminate underarm dark spots, as some skin damage still occurs.

How can I get whiter underarms?

  • Stop shaving.
    Even with proper shaving techniques, some skin in the armpit area can still be damaged and irritated. Therefore, if you stop shaving and choose other hair removal methods, such as professional laser treatment, you can achieve whiter armpits.
  • Clean armpits
    Thorough cleansing is essential; leaving no dead skin cells behind can help whiten your underarms.
  • Use alum.
    Using alum instead of roll-on deodorant is a natural method, free of chemicals, and helps eliminate odors.
  • Nourish your underarms with our whitening formula.
    There are many different underarm whitening formulas available online. They use natural ingredients and are chemical-free. It might be slow, but with consistent use, your underarms can become whiter.
  • Apply underarm whitening cream.
    Just like other parts of the skin that need moisturizing, the underarms are no exception. There are creams that can help whiten underarms, but you need to do your research and make sure the product is approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).
  • Laser underarm whitening
    It's the best and most effective method, usually combined with laser hair removal. It's the most targeted and fastest way to treat the problem.

____Dark underarms aren't just caused by improper hair removal; there are many other factors. Observe yourself to determine the root cause of your dark underarms and address it accordingly. Proper hair removal might not guarantee 100% whiter underarms, but it can help prevent inflammation and further darkening of the skin. If you truly want whiter underarms, try different methods that work for you. Gradually experiment and find the right technique, and you'll eventually achieve smooth, white underarms.
