Plucking can be a quick and easy way to get rid of unwanted body surface hair, but it's not the safest or most effective way. And armpit hair removal is no exception. Because the process of plucking underarm hair can be painful, time consuming and, if done incorrectly, can cause irritation, ingrown hairs or scarring on the skin.
1. Why should not pluck armpit hair?
Plucking armpit hair also brings certain advantages such as helping to remove hair at the root. This ensures longer results than shaving. At the same time, proper armpit waxing can also be a much lower-cost alternative to waxing. All you need is a small pair of tweezers and you are ready to go. No need to make an appointment in advance, each person can make their own, the results are semi-permanent.
However, why should you not pluck armpit hair is the first reason that this method takes a long time while it should only be applied to small areas of skin, such as eyebrows. Plucking hair with tweezers will also cause small scratches on the skin, making the skin look rough and causing the pores to enlarge. Furthermore, this damage can lead to scabs and can leave scars or dark spots on the skin under the arms, unsightly. Besides, the operation of hair removal is also very painful because it is necessary to pull the hairs out of the hair roots. This increases the sensation of pain on the sensitive skin and also causes further irritation to the skin.

2. Things to know when plucking armpit hair
According to dermatologists, if the armpit hair is plucked incorrectly, the user can damage the hair follicles. So, if you intend to pluck those armpit hairs, it's best to pluck them after taking a shower with warm water. This condition will help the hair follicles open up and will be less painful. In addition, for women, the choice of time to pluck is also very important. Due to hormonal changes, painful stimuli tend to feel more painful closer to a person's menstrual cycle, so it is important to avoid plucking armpit hair during this time.
It is often recommended to pull armpit hair in the direction of hair growth, because "pull back" will encourage ingrown hairs as well as the side effect of forming goosebumps.
The next thing users need to keep in mind is not to pluck armpit hair too soon. Shaving every day or every other day will prevent irritation, but this is not the case with epilation. When done, longer hairs are also easier to grasp and prevent damage to the hair follicles more effectively than when new hairs grow. So, generally, doctors accept epilation every four weeks - although the rate of hair growth varies from person to person.
On the other hand, the choice of tweezers for epilation also plays an important role. Never try to work with an ineffective tweezers as it will cause further skin damage. Besides, using a dull tweezers can make it difficult to pluck hairs as well as increase the risk of skin irritation and infection.
A good shave requires gentle exfoliation first, but this step is not necessary before plucking. Instead, users should exfoliate afterward to reduce the appearance of ingrown hairs. In addition, when plucking armpit hair, users also do not need to use any oil or shaving cream to prepare the skin.
Finally, not everyone should pluck armpit hair. While armpit epilation is still gentler on the skin than waxing, plucking underarms if someone has very dense hair can be very difficult and increases the risk of ingrown hairs. Therefore, these subjects may be more suitable for permanent hair removal methods such as laser hair removal.
