My friends make fun of my hair down there!

 

Check these out, too...

  • Just shaved my legs, but I'm still seeing roots!
  • My friend sulks if I do better in school than her. Help!
  • 3 times it's OK to tell your bestie's secret
  • Do guys only care about chest size?
  • Girl Code: Is it OK to date your BFF's crush?
My friends always make fun of my hair down there. They always ask if I’ve shaved “the forest” yet. It’s annoying! I keep it neat, don’t get me wrong, but my mom told me it’s supposed to be there. What should I do?

 

Oy! Besties really are the best, but sometimes you’ve just gotta tell ‘em to mind their own business. How you keep your hair down there (or anywhere else on your body, for that matter) is 100-percent your business.

 

Pubic hair is totally natural and it is suppose to be there and it’s not disgusting! Your pubic hair protects the sensitive skin surrounding your private parts from getting irritated by your clothes. Trust me, if you shaved yourself bald down there and then put on a pair of jeans, you’d notice a huge difference.

 

To shave or not to shave (or wax or otherwise remove hair…) is a decision that can only (and should only!) be made by you. What you choose to do with your bod is nobody else’s concern. Don’t feel pressured to change your ways just ‘cause your friends rag on your habits. My advice? Tell ‘em to shut up, then change the subject.

1. Say your name 10 times.
2. Say your mom's name 5 times.
3. Say your crush's name 3 times.
4. Paste this to 4 other quizzes. If you do this, your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday, but if you read this and do not paste this, then you will have very bad luck! SEND THIS TO 5 QUIZZES IN 143 MINUTES. WHEN YOU'RE DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR CRUSH'S NAME WILL APPEAR IN BIG LETTERS ON THE SCREEN. THIS IS SO FREAKY BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS

your mom's right it's supposed to be there. and tell your friends that they should mind their own buisness-in a nice way of course!- Confidence is key...

hope this helps

Guys, some best friends talk about this stuff!! My bestfriend and I do it ALL the time! But she'd NEVER tease me about it! She's just cool like that(: talking about this stuff makes you feel closer to your BFF. But, anyway, that's not nice!

MOD MOD MOD so this might sound weird, but whenever i shave under my arms, the hair grows back like a week later! and when it does, it's only on my right side, not my left. do you know why this happens? and is it normal?

 

Hey girly, I'm not exactly sure why this is happening. Mhmm maybe it's because you're shaving with a certain type of soap. Use shaving cream instead. You should also try using nair, that might prevent the hair from growing back so fast. Hope this helps!! Smile Smile
