How old should you be to shave your vaginal area?
My name is JeanieBeanie and I am 14. In the past I have shaved my vagina three or four times, and I'm not sure if I'm supposed to at this age or not. Am I old enough to continue shaving my vagina, or should I wait until a certain age?

Can't do you any actual harm shaving at 14. Hair will keep growing if you keep shaving it away of course. Unshaven it will not keep growing indefinitely, getting longer and longer. It reaches a point, then stops. If you like the look and feel of being bare then do it. There may be some who feel shaving your vagina denotes some sort of idea that the girl is sexually prolific and it is not appropriate behaviour at 14? The idea that why would you worry unless you're displaying it to guys? I'm sure you see what I mean? That's nonsense really if you think about it. You're doing it for YOU, because you like the feel and look. There's no proper link between shaving your vagina and your actual sexual behaviour and values. So go for it...if you decide you don't like it it will grow back. X

If you have hair to shave, you're old enough to shave. I nicked myself too many times so I used scissors to just trim hair shorter. The only real reasons to trim or shave at this age is so nothing shows outside the panty or bathing suit bottom area.
The other reason, for me was the natural cleansing fluid that comes out of the vagina when you don't have a period, yellowish and sticks to the panty, well it dried and the hair got stuck dried to the panty so that every time I tried to go to the bathroom and pull down the panties, I had lots of hair glued in place and some got ripped out as if I used tweezers. Didnt feel good. So trimming or shaving solves that problem as well.
