Underarms change color because of removal of hair using creams or by shaving .Try waxing it from now on and also bleach it once in a month you will regain color.I use an epilator from Phillips to remove underarm hair ,it comes out by the root.

When showering, mix some drops of Betadyne with soap on your washcloth and do your underarms, (and any other places that tend to sweat), and rinse. This concoction kills the odor-causing bacteria, and lasts nearly all day. Check it out! Amazing!

thats ok, what you are seeing are the hairs which are going to peep out of your skin in a few days.\n\nWhile there is nothing wrong with shaving off hair from the underarm region, the underarm region does tend to get darker especially with Indian women, since they have black or brown hair. This hair is not pulled out from the roots, and so it is often visible below the skin even after shaving, especially if you are light-skinned. If you have not had any problems with shaving your underarms, and if your armpits have not darkened, you can continue shaving them\n\nI highly recommend waxing or if you cant stand the idea of that, try shaving your underarms in different directions?  The hairs all grow in different directons.\n\nGood Luck!!!

I use Facial Bleach ....Joleen has a really good bleach just for face, it's multiple uses and you can find that at walmart. \n\nIf you aspire to have a silky-smooth, hairless face, try some of the methods below. \n \n   \n  Steps:  \n1.   Shave it, but remember that this is a temporary method of facial hair removal that is not recommended for women. Regrowth tends to occur rapidly.  \n  \n2.   Tweeze it. Tweezing is a good, although somewhat painful way to remove small areas of unwanted facial hair. Because the hair is plucked out at the root, it takes longer for regrowth to appear.  \n  \n3.   Use depilatory creams, gels and lotions, which contain a chemical that alters the structure of the hair for easy removal. This chemical can be irritating to skin, so use only a product especially formulated for the face. Always do a skin test on a small area of the face before using the product, and follow directions exactly to avoid irritation or chemical burns.  \n  \n4.   Consider waxing every 4 to 6 weeks, in which you apply hot or cold wax to the area of unwanted hair. The hair becomes affixed to the wax and the wax is then pulled off the skin, taking the hair with it. Test a small area of your skin for an allergic reaction before using, and do not use wax on sunburned or irritated skin.  \n  \n5.   Think about electrolysis, a permanent hair removal method in which an electrical current is used to destroy the hair root. Several treatments may be required over a period of time, as each hair follicle must be destroyed individually.  \n  \n6.   Laser it. Hair removal by laser must be done by a licensed professional. It can be expensive and time-consuming, and it may not be permanent. It is best to discuss your situation with a professional. You can find one by looking in the yellow pages under "Hair Removing."  \n  \n  \n  Tips:  \n You may wish to discuss hair removal options with your physician before proceeding.  \n  \n Consider using a lotion containing alpha-hydroxy acid after any of the above treatments. It exfoliates the skin, which helps to prevent ingrown hairs.  \n  \n If all else fails, bleaching the hair is a safe and easy option.

Just get a box of 'Crest White Strips' from walmart. They work really well.

Use Certain Dri.  It used to be by prescription only but it's available at pretty much any target, walmart, drug store, etc. for about $6.  I believe it works for about 24 hours and it pretty much stops the underarm sweating.  DO NOT use it just after you've shaved.  Give it about 24 hours and use it then.  I used this on my wedding day.  I wore a white strapless gown in 96 degree weather and stayed dry the whole time.

I use three different products to whiten my teeth. \n\nListerine has a new mouthwash that foams and whitens your teeth and is effective when used with Arm & Hammer whitening toothpaste. \n\nTo get that quick and effective white right away, try Rembrandt's 2 Hour White.

If you can afford to visit a dermatologist, that's your best bet.  If not, let me suggest the following:\n\nIt sounds as if your skin is reacting to the shaving of your underarms.  You might try waxing for them, if you can tolerate it.  (I've never had it done.)  If you are reluctant to try waxing, then you might use a chemical hair removal method for your underarms, like Nair.  Realize, however, that if your underarm skin is that sensitive, it might also react to the Nair.\n\nFor your knees, I'd recommend slathering some baby oil on them before you get into the shower or tub, allowing it to soften your knees, and then gentle buffing with a pumice stone.  It's not abnormal for elbows and knees to be a little darker than the surrounding skin.  Whatever you do, don't rub too hard with the pumice stone.  You'll abrade your skin.  Gentler is better.\n\nThere are over the counter gentle skin bleaching products that you can try for these two areas, as well.  Just don't over do it (like Michael Jackson)!  Lemon juice is a natural bleaching agent, as well.  (It will sting if you use it under your arms after shaving.)  Use sparingly.  Good luck.

I have issues with darker skin on my elbows and someone told me to cut a lemon in half and just rub my elbow in it for 10 minutes a day or so and they lightened right up, it's just one of those things skin do.  There are also skin lightening products, but they contain chemicals which would probably irritate the sensitive armpit area.

I have had laser treatment for facial hair, upper lip and between my eyebrows, to get rid of that "unibrow" look.  I had 4-5 treatments over the course of a year, and went back for several "touch-ups".  The hair did grow back in that area, but it is extremely fine and white and not as dense as before.  I am very fair complected, so it doesn't matter to me.  I also had hair removed from my forearms, which took less treatments, and grew back very fine,  and less dense.  I had mine done with the GentleLase hair laser.  I don't regret it for a minute, and I haven't had to shave my underarms is 6 years!!!

Try a cream from AVON called Banishing cream. It lightens skin discolorations.

Wear an undershirt, and make sure you use anti-perspirant deoderant.\n\nIf it is more severe, talk to your doctor... you also might want to get a beard trimmer and 'trim' your arm pits... it is unfortunate that most guys think it is awesome to look like they have a roadkill rat under their arm.
