i had the same thing, im 14 now with chest hair (wich i shave off, i think im a little young for that)

if it really bugs you, try and take a look down the other kids shirts (secretly) they probobly have the same hair in the same places, dont worry

Dude, I am 13 too. I've armpit hair. Don't be afraid to show your armpit as long as you look MATURE and YOU PUT DEODORANT!

you could always shave or wax. that can be kinda hot. either way, it's normal. good luck. =0)

NO DONT WORRY ABOUT IT THATS NORMAL FOR SOME PEOPLE AND SOME GIRLS LIKE HAIRY GUYS NOT SHURE WHY WE JUST DO!

if you are so worried about it you could shave or wax it off. But if you ask me I think you should not worry about it because if your in the locker room all guys have it and either shave it or dont and no guy is going to care and Women know that guys have hair because they do to and just shave it so they wont care either.

keep it trimmed and start liking yourself. if you don't, no one else will.

Don't worry about it, I started getting facial hair a month before I turned 13, I think I was the only guy in 7th grade at my school that shaved, the others almost had a fit lol. For my 13th birthday my grandmother got me an electric razor.

if you wear deodorant, your fine!!! your showing maturity.

its all good man dont worry theres guys ur age that are scared to take their shirts off cause they dont have hair so be happy, evbvery1 has hai, its normal

DON'T SHAVE YOUR CHEST HAIR whoever wrote that, my brother did that for the same reasons and you should see him now, he is practically part ape. Any girl can tell you shaving makes the problem worse. Wax, it will eventually get thinner and thinner...
I wouldn't be worried if I were you, its all part of puberty

you just shouldn't care. Being comfortable with yourself is one of the most important things in life! Some people are hairy, some aren't. My little brother is virtually hairless from his waist up...but his legs look like a warewolf. But you are who you are and you have to be happy with things you can't change.

men are surposed to have hair there its what makes us manly so dont be afraid to show it off unless your a wimp

go ahead and show your armpit hair it's nothin to be ashamed of. same with pube hair, but you shouldn't show that

its ook . i am too. ya u can just be cautious.

dont be shy it normal and it could be sexy

Just be natural. Be you. Lots of guys your age are hairy and a lot more wish they were.
Start by wearing a t-shirt around the house and yard for a day to get comfortable.
Then take a walk down the street and back, then around the block. You'll find that you'll get more comfortable as you forget how your dressed. Don't worry about it.
It's like a guy in my dorm noticed that I was quite pale one summer when I had shorts on. He said, "Jeez, I'm blinded". I noticed he was quite chubby and never had shorts on. But I had the decency to keep a rude remark to myself. Should have seen the tan I had by end of summer and the chubby guy was still chubby.
