I have hair on my belly! Can I nix it before bikini season?

I have a line of hair that runs from my belly button to down there. I’m afraid that if I don’t get rid of it, I’ll never be able to wear a bikini!

A li’l trail south of your stomach is definitely normal—all just a part of your body’s increased amount of hair during puberty.

Since the area is super sensitive, use a hair removal cream like Nair or Veet. Bleaching, tweezing or waxing are other possible options, though they are probably better left to the pros at a local salon.
