Boys' armpit hair is often long and thick, and many people think that such boys are very manly and charming.

It is not difficult to trim the armpit hair of boys that is too long. You can use tools such as shavers to trim it, but be careful when trimming to avoid damaging the hair follicles and skin, so as to maintain both beauty and hygiene.

How to trim the armpit hair of boys that is too long?

In fact, for many men, having thick armpit hair is a manifestation of male charm. From another perspective, male armpit hair can attract the opposite sex. However, when the armpit hair is too long and not taken care of regularly, it will have the opposite effect. Too long armpit hair will greatly affect other people's visual experience and even cause others to be disgusted, especially in hot seasons, when the armpit hair will often be exposed to others. Therefore, it is important to take good care of the armpit hair.

Excessively long armpit hair may also cause some infectious diseases. For example, when we exercise, the armpits will secrete a lot of sweat due to the dense armpit hair. If we don't clean it in time for a long time and do a good job of hygiene and maintenance, the armpits will easily breed bacteria, and in severe cases it will cause infection. Some common symptoms are inflammation and redness of the armpits, and itching often occurs. Therefore, when we sweat a lot, we should clean it in time and keep it clean.

It is very simple to deal with long armpit hair. The common method in life is to shave the armpit hair with a shaver. Women often shave all of their armpit hair for personal hygiene and aesthetic considerations, while men usually shave a little. In addition to shaving armpit hair, it is still necessary to do a good job of cleaning the armpits. Pay more attention to cleaning the armpits when taking a bath every day and develop the habit of using shower gel.

In addition, people who exercise regularly should pay attention to ventilation under their armpits to avoid bacterial growth due to the penetration of sweat. It is important to pay attention to personal hygiene habits, change and wash clothes that sweat frequently, and try not to wear clothes that have been worn by others to avoid bacterial infection.

Armpit hair has two main functions:

1. Antibacterial

Armpit hair can protect the skin where it grows, shielding it from foreign bacteria, dust, etc., and keeping the "enemy" out of the skin.

2. Relieve friction

Another function is that when the human body moves, the arms move, and the armpits pull the surrounding skin, which always generates friction. If the friction is too long or too heavy, it can relieve the force of skin friction and protect the armpit skin from being scratched.

What are the effects of frequent armpit shaving?

From the structure of hair follicles, we know that armpit hair does not affect the mechanism of sweat glands, nor does it hinder sweating. Therefore, as long as we are careful when shaving armpit hair and do not damage the armpit hair follicles and skin, it will not have any effect on health, and it is similar to trimming hair normally. There is no scientific basis for some online claims that shaving armpit hair causes breast cancer and body odor, so there is no need to believe them. In addition, armpit hair does not grow more and more, nor does it become thicker and thicker the more you shave. The reason why we have the illusion that armpit hair grows more and thicker the more you shave is because the cross-section of the hair is wider after shaving, and because the newly grown armpit hair is short, it looks thicker and thicker. However, it is actually no different from the original.

In fact, the number of hair follicles is fixed since birth, so there is no problem of hair becoming denser the more you shave. Also, the color of body hair is related to local endocrine, so there is no problem of hair becoming darker the more you shave. However, shaving armpit hair will stimulate the body hair to enter the next growth phase, so it is easy for the body hair to grow again.

However, although there is no such false statement on the Internet about shaving armpit hair frequently, it is not recommended to shave armpit hair frequently. Unless there is a special need, it is better not to shave and let it grow naturally.
