Dotted Legs VS Dark Underarms

Ever since the young age of around 12/13, I noticed the hair on my legs and decided to shave them, I continued to do this for many years, until I noticed all the ingrown hairs, and black dots the shaving left.
So my legs literally look like someone has got a black biro and drawn dots all over them. I tried exfoliating, getting them waxed....almost anything you can think off I've tried it!
So it got to the stage where I wore tights every single day, even SUMMER, I was too paranoid to even let my boyfriend see my legs. But last year I went to a friends birthday, more of a party with a lot of alcohol and loud music.
As paranoid as I am I started to 'google' ways to hide the marks all over my legs, I found a spray called 'Sally hansen' this sort of spray is used to tan your legs and to cover veins and small imperfections.
I decided to buy two cans and spray my entire full legs with it so they turned a very dark tan colour ...but this removed the dot marks..So I did not mind.
Leaving for the party I noticed I had marks on my dress but just assumed they were from when I bought the dress. As the evening went on, I sat myself next to a few friends and this guy, my legs rubbed against many things that night including his trousers....which were black.
After I got up and sat down after several times I noticed his BLACK trousers were now SKIN COLOURED, down the bottom, the side of his trousers, my leg spray went all over his trousers in which I slowly got up and left the party....and then noticed all the marks on my bed, dress, mobile were due to the leg spray!
I was so embarrassed and the only thing that got me through was everybody had a little too much too drink so forgot anyway!
Right another funny story....my underarms are quite dark due to shaving....I shaved them regularly and one day we all went to go bowling, I lifted my arms up to sort my hair out and then someone shouts towards me 'You forget to shave your armpits!!' I suddenly looked at my armpits and said back 'There's no hair on them! Feel it'
My friend then told me that my underarms were so dark it looked like I had a armpit FULL of hair...and she meant like a man's armpit!! Lol :). Hope you enjoyed these.
