Shaving or trimming your pubic hair is up to you. An older sibling might do it, or you might have seen someone do it at the gym or while showering after sports at school.
You don’t need to shave your pubic hair. If it sticks out of your bikini, and you'd like to take care of it, there are safe ways to do so. Ask your parent or guardian or trusted adult for information about trimming or shaving pubic hair. You can also ask your doctor.
Be very careful when trimming pubic hair with scissors to avoid cutting yourself.
