Shaving leg and armpit hair is entirely a construct of razor companies in the 1920s or 30s. Very successful marketing, that.

"'I began by mixing bleach and 30 volume developer. I knew I needed something strong enough to cut through that coarse hair and lighten it up as much as possible, but I didn't want to use 40 volume because I didn't want to cause any uncomfortable burning on the delicate skin in her pits."
