Throughout our history, there have been countless beauty trends. Just these couple last years gave us the squiggle brow, glittery butts, fur nails, faux freckles, and unicorn everything. If you'd wish to dig deeper in the older days, you'd find such trends as dyeing tour teeth black a la Japanese, eating absolutely deathly arsenic for skin whitening, and removing the eyelashes in Middle ages just to name a few. But what about keeping it au naturel ?
Alongside the over-the-top makeup trends goes the liberating natural beauty trend. And believe it or not, hairy women, or hairy armpits to be exact, is the new it. Many Instagram influencers have posted pictures, proudly showing their ungroomed armpit hair. Some of them have even begun dying their armpit hair, receiving plenty of praise and criticism for inventing new beauty standards in the process.
Girls with hairy armpits declare this trend as a form of feminism, because why should you shave for somebody else? For some women, cultivating body hair is a way to protest the beauty and maintenance standards placed upon them by society. Indeed, even photographers like Ben Hopper have used armpit-haired models to communicate this message.
Before 1915 and the advent of women's shaving marketing campaigns, even pinups often sported all of their body hair and women with hairy armpits were absolute norm. As they say, there are no friends in taste!

I have no problem with armpit hair. BUT. I hate it when they let their facial hair go , like eyebrows and their 5 o'clock shadow. It would not stop me from loving a person.

For anyone who has felt the need to not only go through this article (revealing at least an iota of interest), but to then post in a negative and derogatory manner, you are the societal ill that has perpetuated artificial beauty and cultural standards over the last century; your offense only proves there is a pervasive attitude that needs to shift.

I have right to forget to shave, women do have that right as well!!!
Nickie 10 years ago
I don't care what people do to their own bodies, but I shave my pits cuz I can't stand the feel of the hair there.. my husband shaves his pits for the exact same reason. I'm straight, so I don't know if a woman who has hair there would be a turn off, but I don't have a problem with men having it, so I doubt I'd care. But I will say these are beautiful women, and as such are going to be more accepted. If you put up Rosie O'Donnell or Roseanne or just someone who isn't a widely accepted beauty, and I'm thinking these comments would be undoubtedly different.

The point is that she does what she wants with her body and she is trying to normalize (and this is my interpretation) the hairy armpits, because in this case is what is stigmatised about her choices.

I think everyone has the right to make whatever choices they want with their body! But I am wondering is it bad for you to bleach and dye your arm pit hair and skin with chemicals? would you get a rash?

Wow, these photos are really beautiful. I myself am a 26 year old woman who does not shave a single hair on my body! I actually run a whole erotica site, NaughtyNatural.com based around beautiful women who do not shave and have a photo book out now called, 'Unshaven' http://amzn.to/1PO96rR If you like these photos and are a fan of women doing what they want with their bodys and rejecting social norms that say they should remove their body hair, I highly suggest you check out my work. -Nikki Silver twitter.com/xnikkisilverx

love those long horny hairs, iv always found body hair on a woman sexy, there are heaps of us out there who love it, please don't feel pressure to remove body hair particulary for arm, under arm, pubic leg hair and many other places where It grow. I specially under arm hair though just look at the pattern they make, I just want to bury my mouth and nose into those long hairs and nuzzle away.

It's a real society fail when something what's naturally on everyone's body is called disgusting. Armpit (also pubic) hair is natural part of skin flora. It's still being explored but there is scientificla proof that most of our "unwanted" hair has impact on our imune system as they catch microbes and don't let them cause skin diseases and reach blood.

I love the natural girl/ woman with hairy armpits (and more). Big point || that seems to be missed ... from your hair growth you (we all) emit and collect our natural pheromones which smells (if you do not deodorize) ‘who you are’ and THIS IS WHAT ATTRACTS ME TO YOU (the female).. I don’t want you to cover up. I WANT to smell the beast in you - HUGE TURN ON!!!!!!

I have never shaved my arm pits and I am 41. Personally I believe if you want to shave do it if you don't then leave it. Society in general judges individuals by the wrong thing. Personally I have been judged for my body my entire life. I don't care who you are or where you come from you are human and have the right to do as you please with your body. Putting expectations on someone to conform is unfair to the person. We as a society should be looking at character and ones ability to help or not help his fellow man. If you want to be helpful Judge not. Expect good from others set a high standard. Not a superficial Idea to make everyone alike. Being different is a gift from the universe. Embrace it!

I haven't shaved in 30 years and 98% of the time you would never know it. Would discovering that a woman you already know and respect doesn't shave change your opinion of her? If so the problem is with yourself.
KathyLaPan 10 years ago
It's a cultural norm for women to shave. Bucking that norm makes people feel like individuals. I suppose there are more harmful ways to show ones individuality and we should be glad it's just pit hair.
JadeDanielle 10 years ago
Notice how so many are saying that shaving should be a free choice for the individual woman... so then why are mean not allowed to have the free choice of the opinion that they don't personally find this attractive? Your body, you can do with it what you want, but that doesn't mean it's going to be to everyone else's taste. I wonder how many of the woman bitching about men being shallow and chauvinistic , would themselves judge a man instantaneously on his height?? And that's not even something a person can choose. Get over it, accept others for their own individual choices and lets all go do something that's actually useful and productive with our time. :)

It isn't about men's opinion, that's why. Men don't own women's bodies, so what they do with them is none of men's business and doesn't require nor ask for any thought a man has on the subject. Not everything is done to appear attractive to the male eye, as there are far more important things in life to be wasting time on.

In some countries men that shave their chest,armpits or legs are considered sexier by the ladies. Just because it's trendy now to have a beard and rock a hairy chest doesn't mean man do not face similar challenges ... Of course ... it matter only when we talk about women ...

Fun fact: the only reason women began shaving their legs and armpits was because razor companies wanted to tap into the other 50% of the population, and thus ran ad campaigns to convince women they should shave

WRONG! Women AND men have been removing body hair since antiquity. It depends on which civilization you look at, but they did it for many reasons. Body hair attracts lice, hair gives the impression of uncleanliness, body hair is a sign of being uncivilized, body hair is unattractive...just a few of the reasons people started shaving hair.
