While beauty fans have just gotten over the wave of dyed armpit hair, another underarm style has begun to surface all over social media. Coined by one very brave Katrina [Molson](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dime-x-molson), this new style is titled Glitter Armpits.

Just like the dyed armpit hairstyle, this cool new beauty innovation also sends a positive message. Inspired and motivated by gender equality, Molson and many other women have begun ditching their razors and embracing their underarm tresses. Taking it a step further, these same women have also begun decorating their armpit hair with glimmering sparkles of all sorts.
