vermillion26 answered Monday May 23 2005, 8:54 pm: how old are you? if you are young 10+11 then your mom might feel ou are too young and that you're growing up to fast, but if you are 11 and older than just tell her that its really embarrassing to not be shaving your legs and that you'd like to start. most moms will be really happy and go "omg, my little girl is growing up!!" etc. and will buy you the razor and cream and stuff maybe even show you how to do it with minamal cuts. if you are really scared to ask her and you want to do it by yourself then buy the stuff (a good razor and shaving cream) and go to the shower put on the cream (please start with cream jut cause its genter on your legs and if you don't want to continue you should have had enough practise to just do it with soap or water...but you should use cream) and shave, go slow and if you cut yourself don't freak out. even if it seems like a lot of blood it'll go away in a few minutes. just don't rush. after you've done it tell your mom you shaved your legs or wait until she find out...whichever way you prefer.
h0llisterBebe021 answered Monday May 23 2005, 8:45 pm: I was scared to ask my mom too but all you have to do is confront her. Just tell her that "You think you're ready to shave your legs." and tha you want her to show you how. If you don't want to do that-maybe you could ask a friend who knows how to shave their legs? I'm sure they'd be happy to help.

Abercombie_Babe answered Monday May 23 2005, 8:40 pm: you should ask your mom first because you might end up cutting urself really bad. and if your mom says no just explain to her why you think you should be able to shave your legs maybe because it might be embrassing to you i dont know but please dont try it by yourself because you could end up getting cut really bad and its summer time so that means youll be in short and u dont want beat up legs hope i helped

Teza answered Monday May 23 2005, 7:51 pm: Shaving your legs isnt that big of a deal. How old are you? Just go up to your mom and ask her, mommy can I shave my legs? She would be happy that you asked her. Its no big deal and you should be fine because she is your mom! ♥ [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]

sourpatchkids379 answered Monday May 23 2005, 7:32 pm: Hey!
Well I Wouldn't just go up to her and be like can i shave my legs. what i would do is start out with " Mom, you know how you said you would always be there when i need to talk." and after she is like yeah just say "Well i was wondering if it would be ok if i started shaving."
You can't control your mom's reaction just ask her and hope for the best she should understand. Good Luck!

jeanine278972 answered Monday May 23 2005, 7:28 pm: Your mom will totally understand. Shes a girl too! Just tell her your old enough and responsible enough to start shaving. Depending on your age, she will make the final descision on whether or not your mature enough. And if she tells you your not ready , listen to her. She was your age once, and I hate to admit it, but usually.. moms are right when it comes to girl things! [ jeanine278972's advice column | Ask jeanine278972 A Question ]
