Female Armpit Hair Trend in China

Female Armpit Hair Trend in China – Underarm Hair

Girls in China and even in the United States are growing out their armpit hair in rebellion of society’s current standards of feminine beauty. One girl has even started a competition, challenging girls to grow out their underarm hair. The trend has gained a lot of traction via Weebo, a Chinese social media site comparable to Facebook.

Supporters believe they shouldn’t have to shave hair that grows naturally on their body. Pop star Miley Cyrus has even been photographed numerous times with dyed armpit hair.
