Body hair

[lacrosselover]

Hey guys im 13 and i hate to say it but considered popualr at my school and have very close friends that arent as social as me
but im realizing that they are all hitting puberty and getting armpit hair and leg hair and even happy trails.
i am yet to get any of this and it makes me feel very self conciouss. i find myself being very jealous!
even my dad is giving me crap for not being hairy
is this normal?
btw im 13 going on 14

[that kid]

My dad messes with me for having more hair than him... But everyone hits puberty at a different age. You may find your first leg hair tomorrow or a year from now. Just be patient.

[airwalker]

my dad gives me crap too its ok one of my friends is really popular at my school and he is pretty much hair less except for on his head.

[kdddd]

dude everyone will grow at there own rate and you shouldnt care if your dad is giving you crap hes just picking on you. have you started puberty?

[mytmouse]

Yeah you're normal, I'm developing late too and didn't start getting any pubic hair until after 14. It's too bad you're dad is giving you crap even though he's only joking it can be a sensitive subject. Be patient like I have to be and many others too.

[lacrosselover]

yes i have started puberty i have pubic hair but just a little

[Chris95]

Hairiness =/= popularity. I have a ton of hair everywhere and I'm not popular at all, and nobody should really care if you do or not.

Everyone goes through puberty at a different rate. youll get yours when its due.

[Goric]

You'll go through puberty at a different rate, as everyone does. Your first pube could be now, tomorrow, next week or a few months from now. As long as everythings developed by the time you are 18, it should be fine! :D

Ditto :)

[AladdinSane]

As said a zillion times elsewhere on VT, everyone goes through puberty at different rates and ages, I doubt there's any relation between popularity and body hair, you'll be popular for your personality anyway, so dont worry you'll be fine!

[hollisterboi95]

everyone grows at a different rate im 16 and i consider myself kinda hairy, idk if i should keep it or trim it, but anyway i started growing some hair when i was about half-way through 13, just sit back and enjoy the ride :)

[TrackKid29]

i went through the same thing when i was 13 people always asked if i shaved my legs because i never had hair on them and even till this day im not that hairy but either way dont pay people any mind :)

[TheRev]

its normal i have like hair every were but my arm pits and my dads good god you stop eating peppers you have mroe then enough chest hair then he will yell at me bc he thinks im sahving my arm pits LOL your normal every one is diffrent

[bornthisway]

Yes, it's normal. Don't worry. A lot of guys go through this. You'll probably start growing hair soon. It's nothing to be jealous of or anything. Who knows, maybe you'll get more chicks 'cause they don't like hair, or something. Think about the positives, not the negatives. (:

[SWMG]

Everyone grows different and you are just 13 give it time dont worry

[volcomdude]

i personally dont think having body hair is better than not haing any. like i have a normal amount and im 17 but i dont think any less of someone if they dont have any you know

[Speedy29]

Dont worry, your still young and you never know when youll get hair so just because you dont have a lot now you may get some later on

[Boxerbriefs96]

Yeah, dont worry. Its normal to not have hair at that age. You will get it eventually. There is really nothing to do accept wait.

[EON-]

everyone goes through puberty at different rates and ages
That about sums it up, there's nothing you can do about it, mate.

[Michigan48111]

The hair will come when it comes, don't worry about it right now. You are only just beginning.

[anime247]

I am jealous... I would rather not have body hair, but that's just me.

[Philleeep]

Hun don't worry everyone goes through puberty at different times and your dad is just teasing you. It's normal for some to start now and some not too you just have to wait.

[Curious132]

Im popular and have hair all over

[lacrosselover]

cool curious132 makes me feel alot better? haha

[MykeSoBe]

I'm pretty much the opposite of you. My first pubic hairs sprouted out at 11. I remember already knowing what was starting to happen. I remember feeling quite proud and excited, but promptly worried shortly after. I must have subconsciously known I was an early bloomer for me to have felt so worried though haha cos I used to actually be quite uneducated on this subject.

I remember liking to apply the "jet" setting on our showerhead underneath my shaft, and I used to take an disproportionately high number of showers because of it. But I didn't discover how to masturbate the "regular" way until a few years later, after I had watched this overwhelming porno lol. Then the "instinctual instructions" just came to me hehe.

My pubes had grown to like an inch length upon starting fifth grade when I was 12. Back then, no one really talked about puberty but I think I already knew inside of me that I might have been growing more quicker than my friends.

For some odd reason, I didn't start getting any noticeable armpit hair until seventh grade when I was like 13. Which didn't strike me as weird until now. But to compensate, my armpit hair grew pretty fast, and they're more or less an inch longs o far.

Just comes to show you the spontaneity of puberty, and that no one kids when they say that puberty varies! I haven't meant to go out on a rant about my personal experiences with puberty, I just want you to get a feel for a fellow peer's experiences. Let me reemphasize the message by saying that there is no "normal" when it comes to puberty!

it will all come in time. body hair depends on your genes. If you male relatives are hairy, then expect to be hairy too, if not, then don't expect a lot of body hair. In this generation, body hair isnt valued at what it was when ur dad was your age so dnt listen to him about body hair. But also he's just bustin' ur balls

[APWBD]

ya i didnt get hairy until around 16. but i am a very late starter
