Hairy scary ... Zoe's unshaven look is a turn-off

GORGEOUS celebs Julia Roberts, Drew Barrymore and Beyonce have good looks, designer clothes and tons of money.
But there’s one thing they don’t seem to own — a razor.
Female armpit hair is taboo in Britain, with those who decide to go au naturel being labelled as freaks.
But as more stars flash their fuzz, is it a fashion to follow?
We asked Zoe Overthrow, 26, to grow her underarm hair for two weeks to see how she felt and the reaction she got from British men.
The account manager, from Redland, Bristol, keeps her body hair waxed and trimmed to perfection. So armpit hair is one of her biggest worries.
Zoe says: “I spend a fortune making sure I don’t have a hair out of place and shave my underarms every other day.
“Having smooth legs and armpits makes me feel more confident. I’m worried having hairy pits will make people think I’m grubby.
“I know a lot of French women grow their body hair, but it’s frowned on here and most British men hate it.
“The hair under my arms grows quickly, so after two weeks it’s probably going to be long enough to plait!”
Zoe kept a diary of her armpit hair growth. Here is how she got on.
DAY 1: Hiding my razor, I’m worried about the task ahead.

With my work Christmas party in two weeks, the idea of flashing hairy pits among colleagues terrifies me.
DAY 4: I would never allow my hair to get this long usually, and I’m already noticing how horrible the bristles feel.
As a natural brunette the hair is very dark and is very noticeable.
I’m starting to feel paranoid about lifting my arms in public and have taken to wearing only long-sleeved tops to work.

DAY 7: Having half an inch of hair under my arms feels really unhygienic and I’m using more deodorant than usual to over-compensate.
During a session at the gym, I catch the eye of a personal trainer who gives me a wink.
Showing off, I hoist extra heavy weights above my head hoping this will impress the body-building hunk.
But as he turns away in disgust, I realise he’s seen the fuzz that’s covering my pits.
Mortified, I run to the changing rooms, getting out of my revealing gym vest and into a thick jumper.
DAY 11: I’m having to set my morning alarm 20 minutes early, as I am spending extra time in the shower washing my armpits.
The hair there makes me feel paranoid I might smell, and although I’m covering my armpits heavily with deodorant, it’s still uncomfortable.
After the gym experience I’m terrified that people will spot my pits, so I’m avoiding reaching to any high shelves or flagging down cabs.
Nearly fell over on the bus because I didn’t want to open my coat so I could hold the high rails.
DAY 14 — THE PARTY: Awoke with a mix of relief and fear. I’m pleased my challenge is nearly up, but terrified I still have the biggest obstacle left — my Christmas party.

Putting on my best cocktail dress and slapping on as much make-up as possible, I hope it will be enough to distract my work colleagues from my hairy pits.
On arrival, I reluctantly hand in my coat at the cloakroom. In my strappy dress, my pits have nowhere to hide.
I’m immediately given a drink, but don’t want to raise the glass to my mouth in case people get a flash of the fuzz.
Having drunk a couple of glasses of wine, I start to feel tipsy.
Throwing caution to the wind I join my friends on the dancefloor, lifting my arms in the air and twirling around with a group of lads.
But the moment they see the dark hair under my arms, they run away in horror.
To console myself, I order another drink from the bar. But as I wave to catch the barman’s attention, he turns in the opposite direction.
After a few more hours of men avoiding me, I feel self-conscious and ready for bed.
But before I lie down, there is one thing I have to do — shave my underarms.
The A-listers are welcome to have hairy underarms, but I won’t be growing them again — it’s the pits.

We pity Zoe Overthrow and all the British Girls. This shows the level of brainwashing against armpitshair. During the last 10 years, after Internet became popular, many sites made enormous money just showing armpitshair of beatiful girls. An armpits-starved generation welcomed these pictures and the beatiful brave girls who dared to show them. Earlier starlettes like Chloe Vevrier appeared in Score Magazine and videos exposing their armpits hair and people loved it. ATK site, later, featured girls with armpitshair and became instant sucess. These wre not prono pictures but ordinary soft pictures exposing armpits and hair.

Australian site AbbyWinters also featured a few girls with natural armpitshair.

Only hollywood stars, and platsic models still do not see these!

Armpitshair is beatiful, sexya nd erotic. Even if one doesn't display them all the time, at least in some occasions girls should have the courage to show it and make the male population a little erotic. Anglo-Americans are subconsciously aware of the sexual content of the hairy armpits and it is their outward puritanism whoch forces them to declare that armpits-hair is ugly. If at all anything is ugly, it is their mindset and the decades of brainwashing (by Gillette and other razor companies!)
