Everyone's Shaving But Me

  • I have hair on my upper lip, like a mustache!
  • Just shaved my legs, but I'm still seeing roots!
I'm in seventh grade and still have hair on my legs. I'm afraid to ask my mom if I can shave. She’ll probably assume I'm doing it for boys and I’m not.
 
But the hair on my legs GROSSES ME OUT. I am the only girl in the whole grade who doesn't shave. I really want to shave my legs but I don't know how to ask! HELP.
 
I totally remember when I realized that everyone else had smooth legs in gym class except me. I was really embarrassed to talk to my mom about it, too. Your mom may not want you growing up too fast, but she also may not be as shocked by your request as you think.
 

Make sure you calmly explain to her that your main concern is that YOU want to shave and that you feel left out because it’s time ta get with the program. Understand that to her, you’re still her little girl, but be firm rather than whiny in your request. If she still doesn’t hear ya, maybe you could suggest she speak with an already-shaving friend’s mom for parental support.

MOD!!
this really frusterates me. i have a lot of scratches on my legs from minor accidents and i don't want to shave them cuz i don't want them to be open again and start bleeding so i'd have a whole bunch of bandaids. so my legs are not shaved and scratched up. what do i do??




hey! shave very carefully around the scratches until they heal Smile

It gets really awkward talking to moms about this stuff. I use an electric razor, and it took me a lot of courage just to tough up and ask to use hers because I needed a really close shave cuz I was wearing a dress the next day. Haha I walked past the room she was in about 10 times until i decided to toughen up and go ask her. She was so calm + cool about it! Remember they went through the same things. Does it matter if you ARE doing it for a guy?? You'll need to start sometime. I didn't start till spring break of 6th grade.
