I'm 15 and i'm kinda nervous as to how other guys would react, and whether the whole world would find out. Does it look normal when you stop or is it really thick and nasty, and if so how can i make it look thinner again? sorry this question's kinda gross Reply to this Question

You cant make it thin again, though, you could buy you those pink personal trimmers for women. They can make it appear less hairy and are specifically designed to trim down below. They sell those at Wal Mart near the razors and are cheap. Noone is going to know what down below looks like unless you show yourself to others! Thats nothing to worry about.

 "The whole world would know"? What, you have a 24-hr webcam on your privates?
No, it just grows out again, same as your leg-hair does, same as your armpit hair does. Don't worry.
It WILL, however, itch like mad for a couple of weeks, maybe a month. Be prepared.
For the future, I think you'd be well advised not to shave it unless *you* really want to. It sets a bad precedent, and let's face it, it's not exactly as if your future boyfriends are going to go on a sexual "strike" and refuse you sex if you look normal!
I recommend letting your pubic hair do what it does, and simply keep it trimmed unless you have a compelling reason to change it, and doing so pleases YOU.

Be aware that once you've shaved it it does grow back thicker but to avoid this just trim it once every two weeks and you should be fine.
