MOD MOD MOD MOD!!!(Jordan S.) okay, thanks. But also should I trim the hair on my inner thigh and lips of my vagina first because I have never shaved that part, would that make it easier, because I usually just stop when I get to my labia.??????? Also, does it itch after a few days I usually shave down there every two day, just to stay clean, I hate being hairy down there, is it okay to shave my vagina that often because I don't want it to each!???? Thanks for answering all my questions, you've helped alot!!! THANKS(:



It may itch from the hair growing back in, but if it does you can calm it down with some hydrocortisone cream or aloe.

It's perfectly fine to shave that often!  Just make sure you moisturize afterward so that you can avoid any irritation.

When shaving for your first time there, I would trim it down a bit so that it's more likely for the razor to really get the majority of the hairs.  Just be careful with the scissors!

Good luck, babe!

MOD MOD Mod!!!! So I shave my vagina, almost all of it but I don't go in between my thighs and I stop right above the lips or labia of my vagina. But I want to shave everything because I'm tired of being almost hairless and then having some hairs stuck out atough I do trim but it doesn't get it all. What are some good tips to make sure to get all hair only vagina gone and like behind my vagina towards my butt gone with out cutting myself?!?!?!? Also, is it unhealthy to shave everything because my friend said that your not supposed too?!?!? THANKS



Hey babe,

When shaving down there, it's really just a practice makes perfect situation.  You should avoid shaving in two different directions, and it's best to directionally go with the hair.  If you go in multiple directions, you're likely to get ingrown hairs since the area is particularly prone to them.

Try sitting on the edge of the bathtub,  so you can avoid blindly shaving and possibly nicking yourself.  Soon enough you'll get the hang of it and you won't need to.

And it is perfectly safe!

MOD MOD MOD MOD!!!!!!!!! so I shave my vagina. Almost all of it of except near my "lips" or labia, it used to be really long but I trimmed it so it's short. Is it OK to shave everything off like even near your thighs (on the inside)? With summer coming up, I don't want to have any hairs hanging out. But I want to be safe. Also, what kind of a razor should you use to shave pubic hair i just use a disposable razor(BIC) is that okay, or should I use a different type? Please answer my questions. THANKS(:

 

 

Hey girly girl! It's totally OK, as long as you're very, very careful. You don't want to knick yourself... that hurts! As far as a razor goes, I'd say a disposable one is fine, as long as you use shaving cream or lotion. Otherwise, it may hurt.

tell your friends to shut up, your "friends" aren't sopposed to judge. My advice tell them "Why you lookin down there anyway?"

MOD MOD MOD I started puberty when I started 4th grade. Now that just turned 11 I have hairs down there. at first it wasn't that bad but now it's a forest . I ever told anyone so can you tell me what to do ?

 

Hey DivaD01, you can start shaving down there. You could try Nair bikini cream, which is a lotion you apply and leave on for 10 minutes or less and wipe with a warm cloth or off in the shower. Or you could get bikini shaving cream and use a razor to get the hairs off. Hope this helps! Xoxo

Mod Mod!!
So my hair "down there" always pokes out of the side of my underwear. It's embarrasing, and really annoys me. I don't want to shave it off because I know that it will irritate my skin, but would it do any harm to kind of..trim it, so it's shorter, and wont poke out? And is this normal for a girl to do?

 

Thats completely normal! If it makes you more comfortable i say do it Smile xoxo kerra
