Susie, this is part of our aging.....I got the black hair but not on my arms, on my eyebrows and my "Nest", wink ! (Don't know how else to explain)..hahaha
I was always a red head and I had red hair on all my parts like under arms, etc etc.....then after I turned 65, I started getting black hair in two areas. And lots of it (but don't worry, it is still beautiful Susie)
I can barely see any hairs on my arms, just a very sparse covering of fair 'fluff'
Hi Mags,
That is exactly what happened to my sister. All her hair, even her legs went sort of bald. She loves it. Don't blame her, wish I could have that. Just a bit of fluff like you say.
I wonder why some of us are one way and the others are the opposite. Must be something to do with the hormones.
After chemo my hair is starting to come back I've taken to epilator on my legs and yes my arms. Hair on head not quite as healthy but it's coming in tufts and fluffy bits.
Epilator may be work of the devil though as painless it's not
