9 yo has asked to remove hair about 4 times already. The first time was when she was 8. We are hairy people and I did it when it bothered her. We use Nair cream. I gave her the option of a razor but she likes the cream.

I think they were 8 and 10. I let them when they expressed an interest and acted like they felt self conscious about their hair. They’re 14 and 17 now, and I think neither shaves their legs but one shaves her pits. I encourage them to do whatever makes them feel comfortable.

My 12 year old has super blond leg hair. She hasn’t asked yet.
