Happy Trail Growth

[AFCF]

Me and my friend are both 13. He has a small happy trail and I want one too. My stomach has small hairs all around that stick out already. My Dad has a happy trail so it’s not out of the line of possibility. So, can I get a happy trail at 13 or do I have to wait until I turn 14? (I’ve read that most people start developing it at 14)

I started developing one around 14 1/2, I think if you just give it time it’ll start to fill in. Pretty soon you might not even want one.

Thanks! I think they’re cute so I know I’ll want one later!

I think your pubic hair growth also factors in, the hairier you are the closer you are to one. Sometimes your pubes sometimes grow up and spread out across your stomach which makes a less linear trail down, there’s all different patterns of stomach hair.

dude it all will come with time. Don't worry about it. Everybody's body is different. Maybe you could ask your dad when he started to grow his happy trail and that may be a good reference. But don't sweat it too much.

I first started getting mine at 17 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[justa16yearoldaussie]

i got mine not long after i turned 13 but it depends on your own rate of development so it might be a while

[Diable rouge]

It depends on people many get it when they are older.

Other guys are really wise. Don’t hurry, everything will come, you just need some more time. You’re perfectly fine :))

Mine didn't get really noticeable, the point where others could clearly see without being up close, until I was 15 going into 16. My body hair is dark so it stands out more, but my happy trail started thicking and getting more closer to 16. Everyone grows at a different rate. For example, my older bro is 22 and I have way more noticable chest hair than him and I'm younger.

I got my happy trail just a bit after i turned 13 and seriously it grew quick... no im 14 and it runs from mt pubes up past my top ab or right below my chest and its getting fairly thick... so you can definately get a happy trail at 13 but i dont think its as common... i never saw but only one friend who statted getting one at 13 like me... most of my 14 year old friends still dont even have one so its cool that your friend has one

[ShineintheDark]

I developed pretty early and had at least a faint one by 13

Same here

[Falcons_11]

I'm 16 and don't have it. Maybe I never will.

[NoLimitGuy]

That moment when you are jealous of your friend not because he got lastest PS or free ride on carouself but because he is going through puberty quite faster than you are... And at thus point I'm even confused - whether to be happy about our society or try to find some socielogical and psychological problems here...

[NoLimitGuy]

I'm 16 and don't have it. Maybe I never will.

Go check your hormone level by age 18-19 if nothing has changed...

[Alex_Swim]

I;m 17 and have No Trail,

Probably 1/2 my friends do. Some are like real trails, other are just some hair.

But I don't think Trails run in my family, My Dad or my Uncles do not have one, my Cousin don't have them either.

I'm Fine not having one....

[Ragle]

I don't have noticed any sign of getting a happy trail, but my older bros have some. And I hope that stays that way, because it saves me the effort to have to shave it all the time.

Exactly. I don't have one yet, and I don't want one. I know exactly where my dinky is and I don't need some freaking road map. :yeah:

[Lewis3214556g]

I started to get mine at 15

[teenboyNathan]

I didn't get my happy trail until I was around 15 but yours may grow sooner. It varies from guy to guy

No everyone gets a noticeable trail. Bodt hair depends on genes as well as on your stage of development. That's probably how you come to have more chest chair than your older brother. My guess is that it will remain that way because you have genes for being hairier than he is.

The hairyness of a body doesn't only rely on genetics. It is a hormone thing that will determine how hairy a guy is going to be (I don't mean thickness, coloring or lenght, I mean areas on which you get body hair)... Yes, some guys have some places where hair doesn't grow at all indeed, but then again, look at your father and your guy siblings (if you have them). If they appear the same thing, it's genrtical. If not, it's most likely corolated with hormones... Also, enviroment you grow in plays a big role on hairyness of the body. For example, so called, British bodies - guys develop small and unnoticeable amount of body hair to the age 20-22 or doesn't grow visible, thick body hair at all... While normaly guys are getting their body hair darker, thicker and longer by the age 14-15 when pubes are "sprouting" out, legs are gettin hairier and small beard hairs are visible on the face. About happy trail - everyone develops them, not at the same time of course. Just like everyone develop their bodies at different time spans but statisticaly, majority is already developed by age 18-19 completely. So, if by that age you seem to have baby body - hairless, look at your male siblings first, if they all look hairy and say that they already were developed by your age, it's HORMONAL and you should check out your testosterone levels...

I started growing mine when I was 14 (closer to 15) and it's becoming noticeable lately

[ArfyMcPeesh]

Mine started like a few months before I turned 15 then came fast

I wasn't suggesting it was only genetics. What I think you are referring to here is hair in different parts of the body having varying sensitivity to testosterone so hair that is the most sensitive, i.e. requires the least amount of testosterone to make it grow, grows first, i.e. pubes, and the hair that is least sensitive, i.e. requires the highest level of testosterone to start growing, e.g. chest and some beard only grow later on as your testosterone reaches an adult level.

On it's own, that doesn't explain everything, though. For example, my father has longer and denser armpit hair than I do, but I have chest hair and he doesn't. If it was just testosterone level them him having more armpit hair would suggest he has the higher testosterone level whereas me having chest hair would suggest I do and both can't be true at the same time.

So am saying I believe genetics determines the distribution and density of testosterone-sensitive hair follicles on your body. Testosterone then activates them which it reaches the required level for those follicles.

I got mine at like 13 1/2 but now I shave it
