Your daughter is still young. Is she disturbed by the hair? if not then no need to remove it. In case she is disturbed it can be cut whether by scissors or blade or can be removed by usual ways of hair removal such as waxing (if this is not so painful for her). There shouldn't be worries about the hair getting thicker in case she is healthy and doesn't have problems associated with precocious axillary hair. When she grows older she can do laser for hair removal of underarms.
