Hairy back :(

So I have a hairy back and I'm a girl. I wanna know if anyone else has this problem and what you do about it. Its not like massively hairy or thick or anything. But its there and noticeable from close up (kinda like peach fuzz but the hairs are dark). Im really self concious about it and never wear any low cut tops or dresses because I'm so embarrased but summers coming up and I really wanna look nice instead of always covering up. I cant do laser hair removal cus its so expensive, I used removal cream before and I got a really bad reaction, I dunno whether to wax it incase I get another reaction and I dunno whether to shave it because I dont want it to grow back thicker. Please help me I dunno what to do!

Also please dont say that nobody cares and it doesnt matter because I do and feel really bad about it. :s

Yep, im punjabi and legit covered in hair... ive got hair EVERYWHERE stomach, back, legs, arms and sideburns lol...
Tbh, when im wearing a fancy dress or indian langha etc for a proper occasion, i wax. if im just with my friends i cba.
no guys has ever had a problem, and even if they did they are not worth knowing lol
if you are self concious i would suggest getting someone you trust to wax your back for you.

but to be honest, you just gotta own it! hair isnt a big deal and people probably dont even notice!

as a half irish and half jamaican girl i am hairy and i mean im more hairy than most boys legs and have back acne
and i know exactly how you feel about it. But you will get to the point in life where you just dont care anymore like me of course if i get too hairy i have to trim it down :colondollar:

but if i am sweating like a pig i am going to show off my hair and if anyone comments (its always boys that comments) i normally tell them i am more manly than them or its my furr to keep me warm but thats just me.

but there is cream out there where you can bleach the hair on your arms and back i cant remember what you call it i never had it but it helps hide the hairs the best advice is to save up for the laser hair removal thing
i could not help a lot but trust me its normal to be hairy

I'm a South Asian fellow hairy girl! I personally shave my back - after years of practise I have mastered it without any accidents or needing a mirror. Shaving isn't by any means a permanent fix, but getting professionally waxed is expensive and you'd have to grow out your back hair to a decent length between waxing sessions. With shaving I can have a hairless back without the regrowth and pain. Also, shaving has NOT made my hair grow back thicker! I've shaved my face as well for years and I've definitely not grown a beard because of it.

It's all personal preference. If you want a cheap, quick fix which you can maintain easily at home, and no need to regrow the hair, shave it off. Waxing will thin the hair over time but it's painful, can be expensive and you have to grow the hair out between wax sessions. Of course, laser hair removal would be the ideal fix but that's super expensive.

wax strips are relatively cheap, and if cshe asks her mum oe friend to help that is ideal.
ahe would have to shave mord often.... waxing would probably only be once a month at most

Hairy back :(
