With the heat ramping up, I’m looking for the best way to keep my armpits clean and comfortable. Trimming seems like the way to go, but what tools do you recommend? I’ve heard zero-blade trimmers are good, but curious about other options.
Zero-blade trimmers are solid, but clippers work too—just keep it above 3/4 inch to avoid prickliness.
Zero-blade trimmers and clippers are excellent choices, as OscarOutdoors mentioned, but don’t overlook the importance of aftercare in hot climates. Trimming to around 3/4 inch helps, but pairing it with a gentle moisturizer and aluminum-free deodorant can further reduce irritation and odor. For a smoother finish, consider using a single-blade razor occasionally, but always cleanse and exfoliate beforehand to minimize the risk of ingrown hairs. Regular maintenance, combined with proper hygiene, ensures comfort and cleanliness.
