Hairy Tummy

My stomach is hairy. It’s not super bad, but you can definately see the hair if you close enough. I have shaved it a couple of times and of course, it just made the hair grow back darker and longer. I don’t shave my whole stomach, I just shave the middle. I’m scared to keep shaving it. It just really bugs me and I don’t know what I can do. Any suggestions??

Answer #5

It’s not shaving that “makes” it grow back long and black. The natural ends of the hair are just finer and harder to see–if you’d never shaved, the lower part would be just as long and black, but less obvious because the original ends would transition into the coarser, darker stage. (If there’s pubic hair you’ve never shaved, check it out and you’ll see.) Nair works like shaving–it breaks the hair off at the surface. Waxing, like plucking, yanks the whole hair out, root and all, so when it grows back, it will again start out fine and then once again become darker and coarser. (Waxing, however, hurts!)

My advice: Learn that this is simply the way your body is made, and stop worrying about it. Otherwise, you are going to have to worry about it your whole life–body hair tends to increase over time!
