The ruling on removing armpit hair by means other than plucking
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your father carried it out. Is it permissible for me to use the waxing machine?
Answer:
Plucking is better. It is better to pluck the armpits so that the hair does not grow excessively. If it is removed by means other than plucking, there is no harm. If it is removed by a medication or by shaving, there is nothing wrong with it. However, plucking is the best; because the two Sunnahs are plucking the armpits and shaving the pubic hair. Yes.
