Whats Normal?

Question:

I'm 14 and live with my dad so I can't really ask him this cause he gets all imbarresed and says he has to go do something. R girls supposed to have hair down there? Are you supposed to shave it? How offten do u shave ur under arms and ur legs? Thanx!

Answers:
It's perfectly natural to have hair "down there." I just let mine grow when I was fourteen, but now I'm twenty and get it waxed every couple of months. Some people I know shave theirs every few days, but it can be quite itchy.
As for underarm hair I shave that every couple of days. And my legs whenever I'm going to wear something that shows my legs.

Other Answers:
as often as you want

Yes it's normal, no don't shave it unless you want to itch all the time, and how often you shave depends on how fast your underarm and leg hair grow--whatever you're comfortable with, sweetie.

I dont think you need to worry bout grooming yourself down there at your age. Your body will continue to develop until your 18..so just focus on school and all will be well.

ok yes girls are suppose to have hair down there if you dont like though get rid of it i shave my legs twice a week and pitties bout once also depends on the shirt your going to wear

YES YOU HAVE HAIR DOWN THERE AND DON'T SHAVE TILL YOU ARE A LITTLE OLDER.YOU SHOULD SHAVE YOUR ARMPITS EVERYDAY OR EVERY OTHER DAY..ANY THING ELSE??/

Yeah, you should have hair at about that age. You can shave it if you want to, but you don't have to. I shave my legs and armpits whenver they get a little bit of hair on them and need to be shaved.

yes u r suppose to have it and no don;t shave it trim shave underarms and go to a trusted woman rather than the internet with anyother questions o.k. good luck

If you don't like it, shave it! But I recommend you don't. It itches!

as often u feel nesscary to.u should talk to ur school nurse if u need more help in the future

yes its normal everyone has it both guys and gurls.You could shave it if u want or u could wax it. You shave whenever hair grows back. I shave everyday or whenever I feel a little prickle

well at your age do whatever is comfortable to you.if you like it shaved then shave.although you should know that the first month of shaving is painful but after most women that i have dated prefer to have no hair or minimal hair..keeps it drier when you pee and cooler in the summer..also dont have to worry about bikini lines

hey i've been with a lot of chicks.my preference bald or a landing strip..hopefully you dont have to impress any guys YOU ARE ONLY 14.DON'T DO IT YET IT WILL GET BORING WHEN YOU ARE OLDER..YOU HAVE THE REST OF YOUR LIFE TO DO IT.oops sorry i know your question wasn't about sex just natural reaction when talking to 14 yr old about any topic like this

Yes girls have hair down there as early as 10yr old and most ppl shave their legs and underarms at least once a wk! in summer more often and i wouldn't shave down there till you get older and find out what you like!!

A personal question to be asking over the computer, but since you do not have a female role model to confide in . There is no "normal", it's what you feel comfortable with. How much hair you have there is up to you. Most girls/women at least keep it trimmed down. I can't stand even one day's growth of underarm hair. Legs, a lot of girls get lazy about especially in the winter. Pick-up Seventeen or something like that; I'm sure they address those topics :)

totally normal about the hair "down there" shave.. its ur choice. legs totally shave them if u're hairy! if u're not just let it be..unless u want to shave! most chicks do :D

Once a month. How ever you need to meet a psychrotist.

it is really a preference to whether to shave or not. I don't like shaving down there cause it itches soooo bad when you do. I actually prefer waxing. bit more painful, but lasts lots longer and doesn't grow back itchy.
underarms i shave tho. depends when it is in the year how often. could be once a week, but in summer is more frequent. also depends on hair growth. I don't have much body hair so i am lucky.

Completely normal hun. Seeing as how you live with your dad a good idea would be to maybe hop to your local bookstore and pick up some info about all of this. Or you can even find stuff online that would explain better.

But you have to remember that every girl is different.. some need to shave everyday, others can go a week. Yes you are supposed to have hair "down there" and its up to you to shave it. I would wait a couple years then decide if you want to keep it, shave it, trim it, or wax it.

Being that your 14, if you do shave your legs you probably only need to once a week, if that. When I was your age thats how often I needed to (oh how nice it was lol.) But now I shave them every other day. It just all depends on the person, some need to shave more often becuase their body is different.

Hope this helps. If you'd like to talk feel free to contact me. :D

yes you are supposed to have hair down there. If you shave it is will get itchy when it grows back, you don't need to shave it any way. only shave your legs and pits if they are really hairy, because once you start you cant stop, it is best to get yourself waxed then you don't get so hairy

YES - IT IS NORMAL TO HAVE HAIR DOWN THERE. NO - YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO SHAVE IT. HOW OFTEN YOU SHAVE UNDER YOU ARMS AND YOUR LEGS DEPENDS ON HOW FAST YOUR HAIR GROWS. YOU SAID YOU LIVE WITH YOUR DAD--DOES HE HAVE A GIRLFRIEND? DO YOU HAVE A AUNT OR GRANDMOTHER? HOW ABOUT A FRIENDS MOTHER YOU CAN TALK TO ? IF NOT FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME. I HAVE RAISED 3 CHILDREN AND AM CURRENTLY RAISING A GRANDDAUGHTER. NOTHING YOU SAY CAN SHOCK ME. I AM HERE IF YOU NEED ME.

ok first of all yes you are saposed to have hair down there, but i would not worry about triming it or anything unless you are having sex or something wich you should not be having your too yound, shave under your arms when the hiar starts comming back like every three days or so, your legs about twice a week, keep them smoothe. i bet though if you told you dad that you were going to come on here and ask those questions he would stop and answer them for you, you should not have to resort to this.

I would suggest that you find a woman teacher or other Trusted female adult to serve as your guide into your teenage years and emotional maturity.

There really is no such thing as normal. We are all created in such a way that we are unique. It is important for you to pick your friends carefully. Find those who accept you for who you are and are supportive of you.

Oh yes! Don't forget your Dad in this mix. I know he may not understand everything, but he still is your Dad and would like to be involved in your life as you grow.
