Hairy-armed modeling :)

Hi, I'm a model for girlswithhairyarms.net and I'd like you all to read my profile to know about my experience going from an embarassed teenager to a proud model.

I used to be embarrassed about it. A few times I broke down and shaved my arms, because I was ashamed at their abnormal hairiness. Eventually, I stopped caring so much what the world thought. Then one day, initially as a joke, a good friend of mine sends me this website, where they want girls with hairy arms to be models. So, what the heck? I'm a pretty girl with a good body who happens to have hairy arms, so I send in an application, for fun. Next thing I know, I get an email from the webmaster telling me that I'm perfect for it!.

Look at me now! I'm a proud model for a decent (as in, not smutty) website. So many girls in this world want to be a model with a tiny waist and (thanks to lasers and waxing) a 100% smooth body. I am a girl with a healthy figure, with a low amount of maintenance to my body, and I get paid for for my photographs. Is that not amazing?

I know it may seem out there, but it's all very tasteful. It's just pretty girls displaying their arm hair, nothing beyond. I mean there are all kinds of fetishes out there, (the webmaster says it's not a fetish) but even so it is pretty harmless. I've always been very proud of my looks and body, as conceited as that may sound. And now I can be proud of the arm hair that I used to find unattractive.

Ironies

A little bit about myself...

My name is Lisa and I was a model with Cproductions to showcase girls with hairy arms. I am more confident now of the hairs on my arm as a result of my exposure to the Cproductions team. In comparison to some of the other models on the website, I probably have very little arm hair and it's amazing to see how many people are supportive of this natural state of a woman. Such a simple feature, that involves no alteration, but just pure realness (if that's a word).

I think that Chris got it right on with his first post about how girls don't realize the hairs on their arms til boys start liking girls with little to no arm hairs. Personally this is how I came to dislike my arm hair.

My background is hispanic, I have a slightly darker complexion and very dark thick black hair. I went to a high school with a larger causian population (i.e white, blue eyes, perfect hair, and just about hairless) and this was when I began noticing my arm hair and how it wasn't an attractive feature. At that point I thought I had to get rid to get noticed by any boy. I can say tho I didn't divulge much in getting rid of my arm hair, I probably waxed about a dozen times and bleached a few times within my highschool years (5 years in total, which I don't think is too bad). I can't say either that I was ever picked on or pointed out during my school years because I had hairy arms. It was more of an internal thing that I convinced myself had to be my 'unattractive' feature - I consider I'm an average looking person, no supermodel that's for sure! I convinced myself of this because I wasn't getting the attention of the boys in highschool and of course mass media's definition of beauty. Luckily I survived highschool.

Then onto university, a good 4 years that I cherish to this day. This was when I wasn't preoccupied with my arm hair, because I was there to get my degree and focus on school - that was my mission. And then out of nowhere, unexpecting I get noticed because of my arm hairs - like wtf!! The turns of life, and I find out that some people DO like arm hairs - who woulda thought - not me, not in a million years. This gave me much more confidence without a doubt and ever since university I haven't done anything to my arm hairs, except for leaving them in their natural state. Such a simple gesture changed my mind about hairy arms, I guess that's all I ever needed, to know that it wasn't considered 'gross' by the opposite sex. And just like Lexy said in her previous post I am now also proud of my arm hairs. Don't need any of that rubbish that it's not attractive!

Now I work in an office atmosphere, can't say I've seen too many women with hairy arms where I work, but then again the majority of the office is male dominated and old suits. But in my outings I definately do notice girls that have hairy arms.

Hellooo

I'm here because I was presented with the opportunity to blog about girls and hairy arms - something I'm proud of sporting around.
I used to think this was something only my best friend and I had. Growing up in Toronto, I never thought there were other girls out there with hairy arms, until I met Chris who proved to me otherwise in addition to it being attractive to some. All the better! Ever since then I always pick up on this feature on other girls when I'm out and there's quite a few.
Case in point:
Sunday morning I was out having breakfast with a group of friends and as we were waiting for our table I took a seat beside this girl and I noticed she had really thick curly hair just like mine except she was blond. Once I noticed the thickness of her hair on her head, I knew instantly she must have hairy arms. I look down to see if I could casually tilt my view in her direction as I'm sitting beside her. As I'm about to turn around I notice her hairy legs, bare and out for all to see. She clearly did not shave that morning but because it was so nice out she couldn't let her hairy legs get in the way of being able to wear shorts. At that point it was definate she had hairy arms. I couldn't turn around and spot her arms as she was crossing them. As I'm talking with my friends she places her chin on her arms and at this point she has rolled up her sleeves and then without having to make much effort to turn around, I see out of the corner of eye the sunlight caught all her blond arm hairs as they were all standing up from the ruffling of the sleeve.
That's just one example of girls with hairy arms out there.
I guess that's my story for now, not that it's thought provoking but more just to share some sightings especially now with the warmer weather here in Toronto!

My Girls with Hairy Arms Blog

After 5 years of being online, some women are starting to catch on that having armhair isn't such a bad thing after all. This new blog will help them to express themselves to other similar women, and to the men who support them...

There are many men and women who are touched in one way or another by armhair. A seemingly innocent, natural and perfectly normal physical aspect, as normal as the ears on your head, can become a very big deal to both men and women alike.

Men (boys) discover at a young age that they are attracted to women with arm hair, but they also soon discover that most of their friends still aren’t attracted to women at all, and when that does happen, they find they are alone in their appreciation of girls with hairy arms. But they are not really alone at all.

Women as young girls don’t realise their arm hair until the boys around them in school start liking girls, and namely, not ones with lots of arm hair. This usually adds to a negative relationship between the girl, and her arms. Its not until later on in life that many women develop enough self worth again to feel better about her arms.

This blog site will bring together views and experiences, words and feelings, and hopes and dreams of women with arm hair, and some of the men who support them in their endeavors to have self worth, and to be natural.

I’m Chris, creator of the site Girls with Hairy Arms, and this is part of my personal mission.
