The hair will grow back so it's not really anything to freak out over. It won't grow back thicker or darker, that's just a myth. I wouldn't be too worried.

I've noticed that since I started shaving (literally in 5th grade), my hair actually grows back thinner on my arms now. Not sure why that is, but I still do it hahaha! It's a hassle, though. More so than the legs in my opinion

I did it once and hated it only because when it starts to grow back it is prickly and goes through a annoying unattractive short face but it's fine when it grows out

I shave my arms too. Every few days I shave them, it's really easy, compared to shaving legs. Now I will say this the first time I shaved my arms there was some irritation and I got ingrown hairs/pimples on the inner elbow area for the first month of shaving. After that month though, my skin became less sensitive there and I don't get irritation anymore.

Summer I shave Em, winter I'll pass, I need that extra fur 😊. Mine also seems like it comes in less now and takes longer to grow, that could be nothing though.

Ok I was so scared it would come back darker and stuff my arm hair was dark and long and I like the way they looked shaved so I may keep doing it!

No worries I do it all the time. The hair may appear thicker as you have basically given them a hair cut if you think about it when you go to get a trim at the hairdresser your hair feels more healthy and thick that is basically what shaving does it gives your hair that thickness But it's very unnoticeable. But if you are worried about it wait until your hairs grow back about 4 weeks then go get your arms waxed just once. Waxing will remove the entire hair follicle instead if trimming it an it will grow back much thinner.

You only have to do this once to get the hairs back to normal but If you like to have no hair on your arms I suggest getting them waxed every 3-4 weeks they will grow back thinner and more uncle noticeable. But you could just shave your arms once a week to maintain them If you don't wan to wax and you me hair will not get any darker or thicker it will just be exactly the same as when you first shaved them

The hair may look darker as body hair tends to lighten over time from sun exposure. As this hair grows it won't have had any, so it may appear darker, but it hasn't actually changed color.
