This is really really embarrassing. I am 13, I shave my pubes down there, and legs ect ect. But MY BOOBS ARE HAIRY! like around the nipple and then I have hair on my chest and stomach and stuff! It's not like proper chest hair or anything lol, it's like the stuff you get before you shave your legs. Ad I have dark hair, so the hairs are dark! Omg! It's really annoying! I'm really self concious, also I get my mum to wax my upper lip because I have hair on there too! I am SO SELF CONCIOUS AND I GET UPSET ABOUT IT! what do I do! I know it's not normal!

Many women have problems with unwanted hair. First, it is always important to see your doctor (GYN or regular doctor) to talk to them about whether your hair growth is normal or a hormone problem. You shouldn't be embarrased aobut this-many women have unwanted hair similar to what your describing and many women have hormonal problems. Next, if this hair is normal there are many different hair removal methods. Althought I have found with course dark hair that the best and most effective is laser hair removal (but know that this is very expensive and should be done by a professional).

hi,

You are wrong!! It is normal!! Lots of women have this. Just do what they do--waxing and laser treatments!! Stop freaking out about it. Completely normal.

Good luck.

The thing is, it's normal for you. That's the way you are. Some people have a lot of hair and others don't. The more you shave, the thicker the hair will grow back.

Electrolysis is the only method I know of that gets rid of unwanted hair completely, but it's a long, slow, uncomfortable and expensive process. If you've got just a few long hairs growing from your nipples, plucking them ought to do the trick, but I wouldn't worry about 'bum-fluff' elsewhere.

Hey, don't worry everyone has it, its just that you have dark hair so it shows up more. Confidence is the key thing here, if you act confident if/when people bring it up and laugh it off then people won't make a big deal out of it :)

hope you are ok
