I've tried wax and shaving but wax is way better it makes your hairs thinner and your hair doesn't come out the next day and it doesn't make your armpits dark compared to a razor

Wax. Thins out the hair and it grows less often since you are removing the hair from the root. To prevent ingrown hairs, exfoliate!! I also use a ingrown hair serum which is more a preventative serum to avoid ingrowns, which I got from European Wax Center.

It's never grown back thicker when I shave, and my underarms aren't dark from shaving either lol.

It's a myth that body hair grows back thicker. It may "look" thicker due to the blunt cut the razor created.
