Does everybody get pubic hair when they hit puberty?\n\nAnd have you ever shaved it off?

No, not EVERYONE gets pubic hair.  There are some people who are just naturally smooth.  Those of us who wax would consider them lucky.

I hear some guys do like that- I think some hair is important to show that you are a woman, I mean come on! I like a landing strip. Clean shaven to me is pre-pubescent! Yuk!

Ok, my son is 15 and since I'm always honest with him, I'll be honest with you.  Consider yourself lucky that you are well endowed, it's much better than not having enough.  As far as shaving...it will not harm you and women do prefer it to be shaved or at least trimmed.  It is good for your health to get an orgasm, however, it does not improve your health for a woman to to help you achieve one.  It's safer to just do it yourself.

For you the puberty is just started and the hormones storm is in action as the few hair demonstrates. \nTherefore, don’t be in hurry and leaves time to the time without being there to look at you penis with impatience every day. The development needs its time and concerning the sexual one will go on up to 18 years even.\nAt last don't forget that the penis lenght isn't a very important factor in the life!

If I have someone "special" in my life, then I make sure I am nice and smooth everyday I don't like the person to know I grow hair on my legs or underarms. But as far as "down there" I like having it nice and tidy but not completely bare, I once heard that completely bare looks like a inappropriate, under-aged little girl before puberty so if someone likes that, then I think there is a problem about them. If you understand, so I keep some hair there.

Shave it off if you don't like it.\n\nYou might not need to shave every day, I have friends who need to shave twice a day, and others that can get away with once a week.

If you want it permanent removal it'sonly laser that will do it, otherwise you have to clip it, use hair clipper instead of shaving to prevent razor burn and itching afterwards. Just clip it to the right length that makes it look neat and the bikini line to the skin level. O can't imagine hair at the shaft, never seen like that before.

I have been shaving for over four years now.  I decided to try it on the suggestion of the guy I was seeing who preferred it shaved.  I have to admit that even though it requires extra time to maintain, I actually like it too.  I think it increases sensations during sex and from a hygiene point, I feel cleaner.

We're in the same boat. My mom never told me what to do either. But on my own I decided to shave it. I only do when it's the summer or if it gets really long and itchy. And only on really special other occasions do I shave it. It's just a personal choice you'll have to decide on your own. Either way, whatever you chose will be fine. You are you, after all!

ok im a female but i can tell u how my husband does it. he usually trims it down as low as he can with his electric shaver in the shower and then uses his razor to get the rest. it usually gets it pretty smooth. also a little tip, if u dont want to be itching and scratching once it starts to grow back, put a little lotion on the area after shaving and for a few days after, at least until it starts growing back.

Of COURSE it's normal! I'll be 16 on November 30th and mine hasn't changed a bit, but my dad promised me it would within the next year or so cuz while I'm only 5'3" I am noticing changes "down there" that indicate that I'm well within puberty and will soon start to notice my voice cracking (although I'll probably be suspended by then with all the violations I'm getting, lol). So just relax because a lot of guys are like us at 15 and it's good because at least we don't hafta hear, "YOU NEEDA SHAVE!" all day from the teachers like the bigger guys do.

Oh? And when was that decreed and by whom?\n\nListen buddy, you do what feels right for you. If you feel like shaving your balls that's your business. But never let anyone dictate what you should do as long as you are man enough to face the consequences.\n\nI personally prefer to trim my pubes and balls. Just a trim. Shaving would bring tears to your eyes when the hair starts to grow back!\n\nDoes it make you feel more sensitive? I don't know! Does it make you more sensitive when you shave your beard?\n\nGood Luck with whatever you decide!

all the hair on your body, head, arm, leg, pubic, all serve the same purpose to filter out airborne germs.  Men and women shave their pubic hair to look and feel more attractive.  Some men and women shave off all their pubic hair.

Some of the answers are not very fair, because many of us have measured puberty by our peers progression of same,those who have told you it starts at various stages are correct, give yourself time you are still very young, you say you have arm and thigh hair,so you see your on the way.  Remember this question in a few years when you have run out of razor blades.....good luck,and stop worrying..

Some women that I have known do not like completely hairless male genitals, for some reason. Nor do very many like it "all natural." They do, however, very much like it neatly trimmed. So unless your lady tells you she prefers it otherwise, I would advise you to go with trimming.\n\nFull shaving is rather tricky for a guy to do, but it can be done, and personally I prefer doing this to mine. Pubic hair strikes me as rather disgusting and freaky. If you want to shave it all, I highly recommend purchasing a very good razor for sensitive areas. Otherwise, you're in for a world of torture.

hmmm... hope it doesn't gross you out that i'm answering this question (as a guy)...\n\nyour pubic hair is yours, and ultimately it's about your level of comfort... i'm very comfortable with women who have a trimmed pubic area... it's perfectly natural and depends on how well you carry it off...\n\na perfectly shaved pube has it's disadvantages and can be quite scratchy during... er... um... certain sexual acts!\n\njust be careful with the scissor and make sure you have a separate one that you use only for this (obviously!)\n\nhappy trimming... enjoy!
