Question

I'm 12 and i got my period just weeks ago, and i have hair on my legs underarms and many other places i never had before!any suggestions for what to do or use? I will choose a best answer!

Answer 1

Once you look at your legs, and see that hair is really visible (even from afar) then it's time to shave. I like disposable razors that have a little strip of lotion on top. Shaving lotion is only necessary if you have really coarse hair. Just make sure not to over shave. You get really painful razor bumps. If you get these bumps, just moisturize. The same is true for arm pits. I shave underarms everytime I shower, but legs every other day or so. Just figure out what's comfortable for you! Just don't be one of those people who never shaves and people make fun of ><
