[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Twelve is fine for shaving. I am a ginger. The hair on my legs is blonde and virtually undetectable. My friends growing up were all dark haired, dark skinned and started hair removal around 12 so I started it then, too. [/quote] I have pale skin and dark hair and all of my friends were blonde. My mom wouldn’t let me shave because other girls weren’t shaving and shaving too early was “slutty.” And then I was picked on mercilessly. It was a small thing but the start of why I was pushed out of my friend group in 6th grade and basically didn’t have friends until HS when our school merged with other schools. So I was getting shamed at school and shamed at home. OP, if my mom had the reasonable response you just had on this thread, it might have changed my adolescence and saved me a lot of grief. Good for you for being willing to hear other sides and change your mind. [/quote]
