It shouldn't get that worse than what it is now. You might need some laser hair removal if you're that self-conscious about it. Guys pick up on what you don't like about yourself, if you hate it then they will hate it as well. Relax, everything will work out in the end.

If you don't like the hair, wax it off! Go to a salon for the first try, it will probably hurt a LOT, but the more you do it the less painful it is. And, the more you do it, the sparser the hair will become. Don't shave- it grows back really sharp and prickly. I wouldn't recommend bleaching it or using stuff like nair, the chemicals really aren't great for your skin and they burn and cause allergic reactions in some people. Good luck.

Unfortunately darling there is little that you can do to eliminate the problem other than shave the hair. Presently though I would not be so quick to do so. Wait and decide later whats best for you. Do not add additional stress to yourself by feeling that something is abnormal or wrong with you. There are many products on the market that you can use even without the use of a razor.
I suggest you discuss your concerns with your parents so they can share in your support and offer their help.

It's very normal. I have a dark complexion, which I get from both parents, so I've always been on the hairy side. I have very hairy arms and I have a line of thick, dark hairs below my belly button. I have always been really self conscious about it, thinking exactly the way you do, but you know what? The only person who ever cared.....was me. Honestly.
But whatever you do, do NOT shave it. It will only grow in thicker and darker (like the hair on your legs) and more noticable. If you have to do something about it, try one of those dipilitory creams (like Nair) or wax it (shudder...I wouldn't). But honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. Nobody cares but you, honey; nobody's judging you for it.

If the hair on your stomach is fine and not noticeable, don't worry about it sweetheart. As you grow older, if it is more noticeable and embarassing to you, your only option is to shave it off but remember once you start shaving it, it will grow back a little bit coarser. In other words once you start to shave it , you will have to continue. I had this problem too as a young girl, you're not alone. Good luck

You're totally normal. I have it too, as do many people I know. The one thing I would say is do not shave it. It will grow back darker, thicker, and coarser. And who wants stomach stubble? It it really bothers you that much, try bleaching it. It will be far less noticable, and you wont have stubble. :) And on the plus side, my ex-bf loved my stomach. Seemed to think it was soft or something like that... *eye roll* lol. So who knows. I bet you're the only person who notices it.

No. As long as you do not have hair on your back or the palms of your hand, you have nothing to worry about.
