And what a lovely head of hair you have.   

Thanks, I had it all transplanted from my 'pits.

Oh you.  Too phunny!!!  Made my day!

I did it. 

I took my beard trimmer and "trimmed" my armpit hair off.

I feel a bit weird.

You go girl!  Try the mow down method for a while.  Then if you want to take the plunge, it is rather easy to shave those pits.  Be careful though.  You can get razor burn.  Use plenty of lubricant, take it easy and don't try to force it to be smooth as a babies bottom.  Once you get the hang of it and your skin becomes more desensitized, shaving won't be much trouble.

By the way, you look already transitioned and happy in your photo!

It's only my feminine face on FaceApp but thank you.  Yeah it feels weird but like I said I gotta get used to it.  And I can always grow it back if I don't like it.  Thank you for the positive energy, beautiful.

I removed armpit hair by using Tria home laser a few years ago, but it grows again a little bit, but not so much noticeable. Armpit hair is very easy to remove by home laser treatment compared with leg or facial hair, as the number of hair is fewer.

You have this girl sold!  I have been reading the reviews and checked out their technology.  I plan on purchasing tonight and they even have a special going on!   Honey, you just saved this girl a tonne of money, that I don't have, for laser hair removal.  Bless you!

You are most welcome.  Your beautiful and exuberant smile is uplifting, so thank you that.  I needed it today.

I'm glad I made your day. 

I just finished it with my razor.  It burns a bit but I feel a bit more feminine.

The little bottle of Shave Secret works wonders as a shaving lubricant (razor or electric), skin conditioner and razor rash relief.  I believe that Wally World sells it.

Have you tried moisturizing lotion or a body wash just prior to shaving?  That seems to help me.

I can consider it.

I don't know what problem you ladies have?  Why do you grow body hair, and remove it again?
You could follow my example, just don't grow the stuff!  I never ever shaved my legs, my torso or my armpits, but look freshly shaved all the time.  Just go out and find a spare X chromosome, and the problem is solved for good!

Dietlnd dear, can I borrow a cup of X chromosomes?  I'm all out and I don't get my shopping allowance till next week.

Come by, I'll give you some, but it will cost you a case of beer!

I would even give you the extra good ones, which will also take care of your Adams Apple! 

I am not exactly sure why, but after about 9 months of HRT I stopped growing armpit hair almost completely...  after another few months of HRT my body hair on my legs and chest got very thin and was seemingly going away...   today I do not shave my body but once every few months....
Yay for HRT !!!

I am praying for that!  I almost had a repeat of my Hurricane Katrina MRSA attack on my face from back in 2006 that started by a severe ingrown hair caused by my ever present folliculitis from shaving.  It put me in the ICU for 5 days and had to be put on some new rocket fuel antibiotic that almost killed me with serve side-effects, like de-oxygenating my cells.  Getting ride of the need to shave is top priority in my early parts of my transitioning.  The VA won't provide hair removal but I am hoping that they will see the severe health issue that I have with shaving.  Even trying to grow out a beard, I still get bad folliculitis.  My Dermatology appointment is on the 24th of January, so fingers crossed!

Count me in!  I was bringing a case of some fine German Beer over anyway has a house warming gift.  How about a nice spanner wrench?  What size do ya need?  My Eve's Apple is not very pronounced, thank you God!  I have also been Blessed with the vocal range of Roy Orbison, though, not the voice.

Do you people up north have speech impairments?  Calling a good old box wrench a spanner wrench!  The Brits did leave the country, for good, long ago, you don't need no spanners anymore!  (one never can have enough 1/2" sized ones, they seem to develop legs over time)

We could sing a nice duett in mezzo soprano together, might drive the vermins out!

I have been shaving my pits for decades , since starting transition and thermolysis for facial hair removal I decided to also add the pits hands and feet into the routine.
  14 months now on the face I no longer have to shave which is wonderful and now there is time left in the sessions after face so I have been doing the other now also.
Have had five clearings on the pits and no longer have to shave them either

For me smooth is the only way to be
