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.

MOD MOD MOD so lately just one of my boobs has been hurting. It's kinda hard I guess. Do you know what it could be from? Thanks!




Hey girlie,

Our boobs can feel tender before our periods because of our hormones, they can hurt as they grow, it can be sore from working out, or it can be another reason entirely. Make sure you don't feel any small hard lumps. If you don't, try taking an Advil to see if that helps alleviate the pain. If it continues for a while, don't be afraid to call your doc! It's probably nothing, but it's good to check with a professional just in case.
