    DO NOT SHAVE YOUR PUBIC HAIR IF:
    You are over 30.
    You have protruding labia minora.
    Your skin is not perfect down there, or if shaving etc irritates the area.
    If you have nice long soft light colored pubes just on your mound. Men love that look.
    You have nice thick straight soft hair covering the entire area. Men love that look.
    You don't plan on keeping it well groomed everyday.
    If you are married, your husband will get tired of the look in a month.

    PS
    Weird shapes look weird. Shave it all or don't bother.
    If you smell bad down there, shave. If you smell good don't.
    Shaving looks good only if your mound looks like a young teenager, not many women over 30 can pull it of.

    IF YOU HAVE HAD CHILDREN, FORGET IT!!!

    Ok I know Iโ€™m super young (Iโ€™m 10)

    But I have tons of hair down there and under my arms also all over my legs itโ€™s so much it really sucks but thank you!!

    One time I shaved down there and it was SO itchy and got a rash

    I will let my hair grow and tell my mom and ask her what to do

    This is VERY cringey and weird Sorryโค

    Wise words for the young, get a good shaver with several different interchangeable cutting lengths. Trim donโ€™t shave. A trim will keep you from the rash and itchiness, as well as providing a cleaner look(and less hair in your partners kisser).

    People who don't shave their bodies are far way more attractive, I'm heterosexual and I would have difficulties trying to interact with a woman who have her body shaved
