Okay, I have a wedding to go to and I wanna look perfect basically.. no matter how vain that sounds.

But, anyway, i have hairy arms and light hair above my lip... not like a moustache but, regardless.

I'm not shaving my arms. It'll just come back worse.

So, any ideas? Like bleaching? And how do I go about doing that?

Instead of bleaching and shaving, how about WAXING!?!? It's brilliant.

Waxing grows back just as much for me. I wax my eye brows. It's a bitch. They grow back even worse every time

Well, after you wax, it'll be hairless for at least two days. I don't see the problem there as IT'LL BE HAIRLESS during the wedding.

I say bleach the arm hairs. once youwax you have to keep doing it over and over because the hair grows back darker since the hair you have now is already sun-beached.

Well, yeah but I want something that's going to last a little longer and wouldn't grow back worse.

Which is why I wanted to know about bleaching.

You can buy some hair bleaching at Walmart or really any local drugstore.

And who said waxing makes your hair thicker? It makes in THINNER.

Bleaching could turn it yellow or make it brighter and more noticable if it doesn't .....'match' with your skin tone....
Or you could end up burning your skin and having big red patches... HOT.

Just wax it... arm hair is much thinner than eyebrow hair, and eyebrow hair also tends to grow faster as well for some reason :shrug:

But get it bleached at a salon if you MUST.

wazing wont make it thicker!
just as shaving doesnt make it thicker, its just where you have cut the hairs it just makes it blunt which seems thicker!

bleaching is risky, it may burn your skin and make blisters or would turn it yellow o.O

waxing is definitly your best bet.

Igia! It's about 100$ but you'll never have to shave wax bleach or have hair again.
I'm pretty sure you can buy it at your local walgreens, it's a little electric tweezers.
Like for plucking eye brows with....it's small and great, you use it to grab the hair
you want to get rid of, hold it for a sec then the hair slides right out. It sends electricity
to the cell that creates hair and it deletes it. Every hair you remove with the Igia will
never grow back , Never! Hope I helped:)

Well you can always try laser hair removal. It's kinda expensive but permanent.

That website has information on it.

Waxing. Or professional bleaching, don't do it yourself.
