It's a jungle down there! Should I shave?
When it comes to the hair down there, we’re all different. Some girls have a sparse little patch, while others tend to have a bit of a jungle. Keeping it neat and clean isn’t as difficult as you might think.
With thick hair, it’s difficult to shave with a safety razor straight away. I recommend grabbing a small pair of sharp scissors and carefully giving yourself a trim. There’s nobody there to say how much or how little you should snip, so do what feels and looks right to you. Thinning it out with scissors might be enough to make you comfortable, but if you do decide to shave, go slowly. A shaving cream or gel will make it much easier, as will a fresh blade on your razor.
Good luck!
