Am I supposed to shave my pubic hair?

Answer 1

Only if you want to. I feel cleaner when i do, if that makes any sense at all.

Answer 2

Supposed to... well, that's a loaded phrase and pretty much depends on what the other girls in your social group do. Which may change as your group changes over the years.

Most younger women do shave, wax, what-have-ya, and keep it "clean." That is due to a lot of factors but two things are certain: 1) you can't go wrong by doing it because any guy you meet who asks you to not do it you can easily please by simply stopping and 2) even though it is a lot of trouble, I think you'll be happier because it sounds like you are more comfortable fitting in than being in the vanguard of a big swing back to "natural." So I'm thinking you will prefer to do it rather than not.

Lol, just as I'm guessing your mother and all the fathers in your life would be horrified their girl has come to this day...

Don't fault fitting in as a lifestyle, by the way. Life is meant to be enjoyed, not spent "sweating the small s h i t." If you really feel best putting your effort into other things and leaving things like this to the crowd, then do it. People who find these things to be the meaningful parts of their lives will, of course, harrangue you but spend your time and effort on things that fulfill you, not them (that's their own lookout!), and leave things of little consequence only a little of your time. But... do be careful about being careless of what you consign to that category. If something in that category seems to be causing you grief, it deserves more thought and less giving in to the crowd.

Personally, I guess I prefer no hair there, though if the hair is light, soft, lie-in-place hair (not very common!) I find that attractive too. But when covered, either can be very sexy. A bikini pressed tight to an obviously shaved area is sexy one way while a bikini that is pushed out by hair there is sexy in a different way. I concentrate on the sexy side, not any possible horror show! Honestly? Even panty lines can be sexy in the right clothing. The same way sometimes even a grungy ensemble you are horrified to be caught in by a man can be the most incredible, breathtaking things he's seen lately. And don't forget, beauty is in part mental: have him starry-eyed and he'll argue any look you present into beauty in his head.

One last thing: hair does NOT NOT NOT grow back tougher, darker, more copiously because of being cut. That is a myth!!! It grows back as such simply because it was developing to be that anyway and would have whether you shaved some part of you or not. (If science doesn't impress you then do your own thought experiment: Just think about balding men. Would they accept being balder every day if all they had to do was shave it away a couple times to have it thick, tough and dark again?) So shaving legs, arm pits, other places has NO downside other than the effort spent day after day doing it.

Answer 3

Use an electric shaver and baby powder if you want to shave it. That is the best method to use because it causes the least amount of irritation to the skin. Regrowth is the biggest problem because pubic hair is not soft, but you can buy hair inhibitors that will make the hair soft. They can eventually cause the hair to permanently go away on its own. Then, you won't ever have to shave again. Always use baby oil or aloe vera, or some other moisturizer after you shave. Many women have done it. Most of them feel better because of it. They usually never stop shaving after they have tried it because it's neater and cleaner to them, and they know guys love it.

Answer 4

Not necessarily if you don't have a lot or you don't mind the look of it. Some people just do it during swimsuit season and others are in the porn business where pubic hair is apparently completely unacceptable- still others think it's cleaner or just nicer looking.

Answer 5

You don't have to. I find when you at least keep them short your underwear last longer. When you have very long hairs they tend to get wound up in the fabric and cause holes. They make knots that rip the fabric when washed. Still if you don't want to that's your choice. You may want to look at it this way. Do you want everyone to know how many you have? Do you want your pubic hairs to become public hairs?

Answer 6

I would !!!

The best solution is the Seiko Cleancut shaver and Shavy trimmer, used by thousands worldwide.

The Cleancut will leave you with baby smooth skin and it doesn't nick, cut or bite. It only works on stubble length hair.

The Shavy is toothbrush shaped and really easy to manoeuvre around sensitive areas.

Answer 7

No, but you can if you want. Some people have a wax procedure to remove all or some of it at a beauty salon. Some use an at home hair removal process . . . especially during swimsuit season.

Answer 8

There is nos such a thing as "SUPPOSED TO". you are the one who sets his/her own norms. I would say go for what makes you feel good in your skin. If you are in relationship and you care about your partner's opinion you can talk about it but basically go with you what YOU feel like doing.

Answer 9

yes......or at least keep it really short......noone likes a bush....but if you do deside to shave... dont use a dull razer ......ooch.....and everytime you shower or bath try to make it a routine just like shaveing your pits so your skin gets used to it....your less likely to get reddiness and bumps if you touch it up everyother day...

Answer 10

your not supposed to but its a good idea to keep it short and kept. Noone really likes the natural look if you know what I mean!
