I didn't get armpit hair until I was 14 1/2...and I had leg hair and pubic hair way before that. It was not really a big deal to me, I don't know why it is such a big deal to you.

Everyone and every part of everyones body develops at a different time and rate. Not having armpit hair at your age is totally normal. Hey, I'm a bit over 13 1/2 and I barely have any. It shouldn't matter either, and if your Frieda want to make fun of you about it, ignore them. Some people (about 3-5% of the general populous) never even develop armpit hair! Again, don't worry about it, it will probaby start growing soon.

You will grow eventually, don't worry, every1 grows at different rates, and it has to happen, sooner or later.

I got my pubic hair before armpit hair as well. You have no reason to worry, because you will grow at your own speed.

For some reason, pretty much everyone develops pubic hair before armpit hair. Your friends' strengths are armpit hair, but remember that your strength is in pubic hair! Also, I developed my first armpit hairs about two years after I started growing pubic hair so that obviously was a huge gap!

Yeah, armpit hair comes about 6 months to a year or more after pubes. It just happens that way. Don't worry about it. Soon you'll be no different than your friends.

I'm 17 and I shave my armpits from time to time. Sometimes I like the smooth look. And it all grows back in about a week. Just tell the other guys and/or girls that you shave too.

Hey I looking through the posts and couldn't fing an awswer to my question so here it is.
Thanks for checking the other threads before asking a question! We get so many questions repeated, so it's nice to see someone is reading the advice given months ago.

Everybody grows at different rates, so even though they already have armpit hair, it may take a little longer for you to develop it. Unfortunately, we can't tell you WHEN you will develop because that is impossible. There is no way to speed up any process in puberty, so you'll have to get over the embarrassment for now.
But really, once it comes in, it won't matter anymore. I mean, it's really not that big of a deal - and it comes when it comes, and once it comes, you usually forget about it because there's more important things to do in life. So don't worry.

im 13 and that sounds like me, but don't worry about it. armpit hair is probably kinda gross, and consider yourself lucky. it must be awkward to have.
