Is 11 a good age to shave your legs?!


Question: My daughter has started shaving her legs, and she is 10. She has blonde hair so it doesn't really show, but she wanted to start, so I showed her, and helped her the first time, and now she does it regularly, and is really good at it. She didn't get razor burn the first time because she was careful and used shaving lotion, and put lotion on afterwards as well. It's your preference...

Whenever you grow hair on your legs is a good time to start shaving them.

i started shaving when i started my period. i think that is a good time

perfect :]

You should shave as soon as your leg hair goes from blonde baby hair to dark hair. I started shaving when I was 10, but everyone is different. If your leg hairs really aren't visible, then don't worry about it. But if you feel uncomfortable or self conscious, then go for it!

Yeah, I think it is about the right age. I actually think thats when I started shaving.

i started shaving when i was 13. thats when i started my period. so i would wait until your a teen. but whenever your comfortable and know what your doing.

I don't shave my legs I have fuzz Like my daddie.

I'd say whenever they get too hairy.
11 is a fine age though. Chances are, if its your first time, youre gonna get some razor burns, whether you use shaving gel or not, then you might decide its not too fun.

For some people it is.
I didn't start shaving until I was thirteen, right before I started high school and really, I could have waited longer because the little hair that I had was fine and blonde, and still grows in that way.

Whenever the leg hair starts to bother you, that;s a ok time to start shaving, Eleven seems reasonable, that's when my sister Kristin started shaving, but me and both of my other sisters waited longer.

If you feel your ready go ahead. I think it is only a decision you can make. If you feel unconfortable from the hair shave it.

i started when i started to feel uncomfortable about my hairy legs..haha...it sound s like you are feeling that way, so shave em girl

yeah i started to shave when i was 10, 5th grade, just shave when you think your ready but ask your mom first.

IDK it deepens if your parents are OK with it I started shaving when I was 11. Then do not forget to put lotion on after you shave it important to keep your legs moisturized and soft
