Hair

[MagnusOrcus]

I am 13 and a half years old and I've started to grow Pubic Hair, Underarm hair and leg hair. My upper lip hair started to grow and my arm hair started to grow, but I shaved my upper lip, under arms and arms because people say if you shave hair, it'll just grow back in faster. But is this really true, its been 3 days, my under arm hair is still small, my upper lip hair is very very little, and arm hair is very very little. Was this a foolish thing to do?

I don't Know if it true. I don't shave or haven't shaved yet. Um Maybe because when I get a hair cut it grows faster ( or it seems to) but It may not. It will take more than 3 days for it to grow back if you did shave it so you will have to wait. I don't know if that is true but you will have to wait for it to grow backs.

I don't believe it's true. One reason why it may seem to grow back faster is because it actually is, it just isn't from the shaving. It would've started going faster, shaved or not. Another myth about shaving (Which doesn't exactly apply to the OP), is that when you shave it will grow back "more". That's also not true, it appears to grow back "more" because it's growing back thicker.

I don't beleive this either. The reason why hair your grows is becuase your hormones are all around ya body, and they do something that makes your hair grow. I think that's just a myth. I shave and it doesn't grow back quicker.

It is a lie.. Never shave your pubic hair, it will itch and itch.
