You Should Know THIS About Shaving Your Pubic Hair

Pubic hair appears around the age of puberty as the name implies. Pubic hair is considered to be the hair under the arms and around the genitalia of both males and females. Other primates have body hair all over while humans have evolved to have reduced overall body hair except for the pubic regions.

Shaving can cause small cuts in the skin, possibly leading to skin infections. It is best to leave hair be in the pubic area and shave underarm hair carefully. If pubic hair becomes very long and bothersome, it can be gently trimmed carefully with barber scissors.
