I still am amazed I did it, sat on the bed for about an hr wondering if I should shave my arms or not. In the end I just said, "do I want to?" answered yes and shaved it all off lol

Feels cool I am justttt loving it. I think I also done it cos I know my Sister will ask and then I can tell her bout me dressing :)

Anyways, I shell mostly be wearing long sleeve tops in boymode from now on I guess :) and I can stop wearing those black gloves all the time in girl mode wahoooooooo lol

Sophie,
WEll damn!!!!! I just shaved myarms last night also. Missed a few spots, but will get those today. Will take the skin a while to adjust, but when you put on rings and jewelery and no sleeves, it sure looks better! Must be great minds think alike!
Love ya,
Virginia

Sophie,

Guess it was time to show that arm hair who was boss! Rock on, girl!!! Unless you had really dark or coarse hair to begin with, you can probably wear short sleeves in guy mode just fine. No one seems to notice.

Take care,
Angie

I have always been hairy, like my Dad, so people will notice right away that it has gone. Especially my Dad whose always going to me, do you know how much the girls love hairy arms and legs lol He still thinks I have really hairy legs :) lol

Thanks everyone, it really is amazing how much more femme I feel with shaved arms :)

Sophie,

Well done Girl! ^@^ Another big step, but don't be shy by hiding it, dare to be a little different even in boy mode.

Just a little something I do to avoid the "hairy arm now bare" questions. I use a set of hair clippers set at a 1/2 blade and trim from the wrist up. I then epilate the backs of my hands and fingers, no-one at work even notices. I also have dark hair but not overly hairy. And they are so used to me having hairless legs that when I let it grow a bit prior to waxing, some of the guys and girls at work mention (with some humour) the stuble on the legs that should be on my face. What a hoot ##oo## I'm not out, but when asked about the hairless legs, I reply by telling them that it is my choice and I feel comfortable with it. I ramble, Sorry.

But the trimmed look goes well as most women have arm hair anyway, just not as obvious as men. My Ex-wife is of Mediteranean decent (Maltese) and had dark arm hair, but it was thinner and softer than my coarse arm hair, she was the one that initially suggested trimming. Also women in general have no/very little hair on the backs of their hands, and pointed that out to me as well.
