I recieved some very tiny armpit hair last summer when I was 13. Now that I turned 14 in Feb, my armpit hair is still barely there, but way longer than it used to be. I'm kinda shy about stretching my arms or something and people seeing it. I guess I wouldn't be when it's fully grown, but I don't want family to know that I'm going through puberty at this exact moment, ya know?

I know how you feel, when I was 13 i had NO armpit hair. And then when I turnt 14 it started but bairly, and i dident want anyone to see it. But now that I got it all there(or what I think is it all) I dont care if people see. And as for the parents and the puberty, your 14, they know your going through puberty, dont worry about it, really... Hope this helps!

I am 14, and i still have very little armpit hair. Obviously everyone understands, and i can see that by the fact that no one teases me about it, and it's normal for our age, really.

I kinda know what you mean... When I first started puberty, I tried to hide everything that associates with puberty... From wearing coats when I would put on deodorant to even telling them I didn't wear it (when I did). It just made me feel like I wasn't a little kid no more.. I have gotten over it now, and my parents knew it the whole time. True me Bro, your parents knows what is going on with you, but they may not say anything about it, so it dosen't cause any akward moment.s

i was shy at first too at your age. now though it is awesome because i work out and am somewhat muscular. but yeah im not scared anymore (a few years later) maybe because everyone else has it now.

Your like me. I get pissed when someone points out my Pitt hair I tell them to mind there own business. I think it's just modesty.

DUDE I am in the exact same situation. I am 14, and my armpit hair is starting to grow, and I am a little uncomfortable in front of my family... but who cares. If my sister makes fun of me I will tell everyone that it is that time of the month for her (lol). She gets so mad when I do something like that.

July 13th, 2010, 07:01 PM
Personally I don't have any armpit hair.:( but if I did I wouldn't be shy about it lol. And about you not wanting your family to know your going thru puberty. I'm preety sure they would already know your going thru puberty. It's common sense lol. Hope I helped:).

Right now I have a bit of armpit hair, like a few strands, but I don't mind with that. Maybe when more grows, probably, but people are gonna see someday. You can't hide it forever.

I used to be that way, then I just didn't care anymore. Every guy has hair under their armpits. Why be embarassed?

July 23rd, 2010, 05:27 PM
I get that because most of my friends don't have it yet so during PE and stuff i am a bit shy but most of them know i have it and i think they're a bit jealous:D
PS I'm 13
oscarlichen
July 23rd, 2010, 07:23 PM
You have two options.
A:Shave it before anyone notices
B:Just lift your arms up and let everyone know
Most of the people I know have armpit hair so it's not that akward. And it shouldn't be anyway.
gooog34
July 23rd, 2010, 09:30 PM
Same with meeee. When I started growing some I was so embarrassed and I shaved them even though there was nothing there. Then it got to the point where you could tell if I lifted up my arms that I shaved. Anyways, remove it if you want since you have so little now but eventually you'll probably be comfortable with it

July 23rd, 2010, 11:14 PM

MoveAlong
July 26th, 2010, 11:13 PM
I'm not scared, but I am shy about it, because a lot of people don't see me as a very manly man, or a very rugged or grown up man. I think I'll get over it with age and more visits to a gym.

My family is very hairy, except for arm pit hair, we have it, just not thick. I don't really care, but I am very ticklish, so if there is a breeze, I have to put my arms down. I am also pretty sure your fam knows you are going through puberty, really is not anything to be embarrassed about.

Not at all, nothing to worry about bro, people are not gonna really judge you for having it, or not having it. Don't let fear out of what other people think dictate how you live your life. :P
LittleMonsterMike
September 1st, 2010, 08:35 PM
Oh Yeah i still don't want to show my arm pis especially when i'm hanging out with girls because their like "EWW" and my family like to make a big deal about it so now i usually just wear T shirts
xHunterXloganx
September 1st, 2010, 08:39 PM
Personally, i dont care if people see it, if i barley have any, or if its like the axe the axe commercials with the water fall armpits, ill raise my armpits if i want bitch! lol haha, thats how i am, but if you dont want to, than dont, your choice

I used too, but now I really don't care... I don't have the thickest armpit hair, which is fine to me, as I don't prefer having too much of it, but yeah, why should I care what people think of my pit hair, that's the part of me i'm probably least worried about... lol, don't let what people think of you, or say make an affect on your self-confidence...

Well I was just 11 when I got a full bush of armpit hair, which is quite early and at first I wasn't ashamed but when I was shirtless people were starting to comment ( like parents in the house ) and especially friends at the beach, but by maybe 13 I wasn't ashamed anymore although I was still the only one of my friends who had pit hair, so it's probably normal to be a little ashamed in the start.

i feel the same way but i learn to laugh at miself and be like "wow i hav no armpit hair" if i ever need to, it helps, but also i hav a lot of friends w/ the same circumstance so i feel pretty comfortable and everyone moves at there own rate so the amount of armpit hair rly doesnt matter at this age

Cool. I have another problem. In PE one of my friendds always wears a sweatshirt to class but takes it off. When he lifts up his arms i see he has alot of underarm hair. im kinda wondering why that is and if i could end up with the same amount. And sometimes i catch myself just staring at his arms and wait to catch a glimpse. Normal?

well I'm just concerned because I have hair everywhere else except alot under my arms. And my friend just said some people just don't have hairy armpits. I kinda agree but not having alot makes me self conscious. And when I asked my friend if he had any which I know he does he kinda blew it off and said it was fine.
