Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu
The area immediately under the navel is not to be shaven.
The area of shaving for a person (male / female) is above and around the private parts. If possible, it is commendable to shave around the hind private parts as well. (Al-Kamil, commentary of Muslim; Imam Nawawi vol.1 pg.128).
The hair of the armpit may be removed by using a shavor or scissors.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
