So sometimes (it's actually happening continually now) about a day after shaving, I find some grey lint in my armpit. Does anyone else experience this? (I am a female)
| Yes, I also have armpit lint. | 37 | |
| No, I do not have armpit lint. | 6 | |
| I have never even heard of armpit lint. | 17 |
That only happens if I wear a brand new shirt before washing it. And the shirt is usually black so its pretty gnarly discovering black fuzzies in my pits...on a hot summer day after working and sweating my arse off. Mmm sexay!
I find toe lint after I wear socks sometimes lol but no never any armpit lint.
So, I never had it UNTIL I did, and I dug a bit deeper, its got nothing to do with shaving , it does however have something to do with the product ingredients in a roll on,
When you shave: You have smooth skin, and a product, usually a anti-perspirant or a roll on, could have exfoliating agents, which also exfoliate/have some shedding effect on the fabric when you wear it, hence causing the lint
When you dont shave: its still the same exfoliating feeling if you have the same product, the lint just cant stick to thew surface as easily with the hair and friction. So it falls off and you think its not there.
Hope this helps my fellow armpit lint investigators
Pro Tip: dry your roll on with a blowdryer or under a fan before you wear clothes, and follow it up with a dusting of talc/powder
I'm assuming that it is either from the type of fabric you are wearing or, your deodorant might be getting caught up in your hair and taking the shape of little balls.
