I have an 11 yrs Daughter Who Has Noticeable Hair On Her Armpits & Legs. And She Feels As Tho She Is Ready To Start Shaving.
I personally don’t know what to do. I was once in the same boat when I was younger and my mother wouldn’t allow me to shave til after I was 16yrs.
This only came about because I’m getting married soon and her dress shows her armpit hair and she in feeling insecure about it.
Ok so my experience is from my teenage days, so take it with a grain of salt. I started shaving at that age because I had arm pit hair, and I think I started shaving my legs a year later? My mom was very clear in that I had to be very careful, not do it too often (sensitive skin), and tell her if I cut myself. It made me feel a lot better and less self conscious. Hope that helps!!
I let my 9 year old shave. She grows thick hair and she’s a gymnast so she feels more comfortable at meets if her legs are shaved. She’s super responsible and grown for her age though
My daughters were between 12 and 14.
