don't be scared just ask her and she'll say yes but if she doesn't keep trying and give her a couple of reasons like....."I want to feel more womanly.......I can't wear shorts cause people will make fun of my hairy legs.....Most girls at my school shave! try backing yourself up

Answer 5

Just talk to your mom, shaving's really no big deal.  I think I started in 5th grade or so.  Just say "Mom, I'd really like to start shaving before school starts" and ask her if you guys can go out and get supplies and ask her to show you how once so you don't cut yourself.

Answer 6

just ask her im sure shell understand

and if she doesnt let you, ask her if you can use nair or veet or something until she decides your old enough or whatever

good luck!

Answer 7

dont be scared. if she knows youve already had your period. then just be like hey mom can i start shaving? my legs are naaastayyy! or if you have an older sister have her show you how, or have your friends ask your mom with you. have them be like, everyone at school comments on her hairy legs, (even if they dont) but it will emphasise on the fact that you reallllly wanna start shaving. good luck!:]

Answer 8

do it when you're at the store. right by some razors and be like "oh look this seems like it works" and then go for it. Just tell her how you would feel if girls/boys stared at you. She has to say yes and then you'll be right next to the razors so you'll able to get your own right away =)

*good luck. I actually never asked my mom she just figured it out on her own =o

she was kinda mad but got over it soon.

Answer 9

Well you are just going to have to flat out tell her you want to start shaving.  That's what I had to do and my mom was totally cool.  Good luck! Hope you don't cut yourself!

Answer 10

I had the same problem when I was your age.  I simply told my mom that the other children were making fun of me and I was feeling really insecure around the other girls.  That helped her understand that it was time to let me shave.  Just whatever you do, don't let your peers get you down.  Everyone is different!  Be proud of who YOU are and don't let others judge too much.  

Answer 11

shaving helps a little. when you shave your hair grows back coarser, blacker , faster and thicker. if you shave regurarly it shouldn't make a difference. also take into consideration how visible the hair is on your legs. and, although i have never tried, i have  heard that shaving your pubic hair is a bad idea since it itches a lot when it grows back.
