Body hair: everyone will probably think this is gross. but i need advice.?

well, i'm an 18 year old girl.

i've never been checked for a hormonal imbalance, but i have quite a bit of body hair.

the only thing that is really bad is my stomach, because i waxed it a couple of times, and now the hair is darker.

it's not just a "happy trail", my entire stomach is covered with blonde hair.

you can only see the blonde hair in the sunlight, but it makes it so if i just wax the happy trail, you can see the hair on the rest of the stomach.

i hope that makes sense...like the area around my belly button is COMPLETELY SMOOTH, but then you can see the faint line where the blonde hair starts...

anyways, i don't know what to do. :[

i have NEVER EVER been able to show my stomach.

what would you do?

light yourself on fire?

wax your ENTIRE stomach?

just forget about it and never let your stomach see the light of day???

yuck! i wanna wax the whole thing, but i definitely wouldn't want the blonde hair to look darker, cause i would look like a f'ing monkey..

Awuh, that cant be good. But I guess if it's blonde it shouldn't be THAT noticeable. I wouldnt go with waxing your stomache, then you'd have black stubbly hair growing back, and i think that would get annoying. Hm, there's creme out there, probably at shoppers, where it thins out the hair, without removing it, it just makes it light, and barely noticable, or you could get the hair removal cream, and just put that on once in a while. But i wouldnt suggest waxing it, thats just like if you had faint blond hair on your face, it would just make it worse. So try to look for the cream =)

good luck! :)

because a girl cant go without showing off her stomache! what are you going to do when you go to the beach ; )

Try laser, can be quite expensive, but worth it!

Use nair hair removal lotion...it works quite well and is not to pricey. Normally with regular hair removal the hair will start to grow in less and less...so if your up to waxing keep it up and do the whole area that is bothering you.

For a permanent cure you can go in for electrolysis...otherwise the only other alternative is waxing.

But don't worry...waxing slows and makes the growth of hair sparser the more times you get it done.

Also goto your gyn and check for polycystic ovaries syndrome - sometimes that's the culprit and taking care of the cause would cure this too...Take care!

Laser? Shaving? electrical shave?

dont listen to the girl who said lazer obviously she dont know **** because it doesnt even work on blonde hair....your hair is blonde which means its already alot harder to see then dark hair....JUST SHAVE IT!...it will be impossible to see..and you can do it every few days...its not as big of a deal as you think it is...just shave it and you'll see its so much smaller then your making it.

oh my gosh. you poor thing! i'm not going to be much help, because all i can suggest is waxing the whole tummy. i think you may have hit the nail on the head there regarding hormones. it could be that you have too much testosterone??or, you know what, it could just be in your genes! man, that sucks. (freakin genes) ... waxing really shouldn't make hair grow in darker, i've never found that to be the case. it just sounds like a pain in the bum to have to wax it. well, at least you only have to do it in the summer. leave it otherwise, you don't need to be showing your midriff around anyways during the other months. i think you should ask your physician about it. he might be able to send you to some kind of specialist. check it out, it may be totally worth it. good luck little monkey. (sorry, i could not resist. i'm totally just teasing you. i do hope you find some long term solution!)

NOTE do not shave it! this WILL make it come in darker and more dense. don't shave it!

Maybe God is trying to tell you something. It isn't Modest to show your stomach to everyone.

Just shave it! The whole thing! I do all the time - I had blonde peach fuzz on my stomach and I HATE HAIR so I shaved it and no one has ever noticed. I was with my boyfriend for a year and he used to touch my stomach all the time, and after a year I told him I shaved my stomach and he was like "Really? I had no Idea, why" and I just said "I hate hair" he thought it was normal.

I let it grow back sometimes. And it doesn't grow back thicker and darker like I know some people will say. That is a complete myth. And the hair on your stomach is a lot different than the hair on your legs...it is peachfuzz so it will grow back but not stubbly, and not as fast.

Cover it up. Tuck your shirt in. Nobody wants to see that.

If you insist on showing off your body with midriff-baring clothes, you could get laser hair removal.
