Love Mama agony auntHi Harry,

You have a few options: shave, wax, depilatory, modest clothing. Waxing is best done by an estheticien (look one up in the yellow pages), depilatories can be messy, and shaving even though short term solution, is the easiest. Do not fret! Everyone has hair! It's there for our protection against elements, germs, etc. Perfectly natural. However natural hair is, it is more acceptable to control it when wearing revealing clothing. Are you able to wear more modest clothing? Don't worry about dieting... you're beautiful the way you are.

:) Love Mama

xoxo

You absolutely have to get rid of your hair. Social suicide not to. u have 3 months to experiment with hair removal creams, shaving and best waxing. Start waxing early to thin it long term. Either do it yourself which is messy or go to salon. They're used to hairy buts so don't be embarrassed or worry. If not easy to shave u just need practice. As for weight try to lose some and buy some flattering clothes and sarongs. People at school are cruel. Protect yourself and get rid of your hair good luck. You can do it

if you don't like shaving, go and get a bikini wax before you leave, it will last a few weeks or so.

Partyboy123 agony auntHello,

I AM A GUY, but I do know what you mean, and I can provide some valid suggestions for you.

You are around 168 pounds? (if you mean that each stone is about 14 pounds, then 12 * 14 = 168 lbs approx.)

You are 5'5, which is average for a girl your age. (my girlfriend is about the same height and she is 16)

I do not know your body image or body mass index (that is personal, not something i need to know, and not something i want to know). I am going to assume by your height and weight that you are of average size for your age.

People do judge other people, but you need to realize that what they say is just to hurt you, and you need to love yourself for who you are, and appreciate yourself. Wear the swimsuit, have a good time, just be yourself and people will see the confidence that you have, and they will not say a word, and if they do, tell them that they are judgmental and immature. It takes a lot of guts to do something you are not comfortable with, but if you have the courage and are confident, it wont matter what anyways says or thinks.

About the pubic hair and armpit hair; shaving it will only make it come in faster and thicker (which is obviously not a good thing, because then you will have to shave it more frequently which will become a total pain in the behind). You should talk to your mother about this - she will most likely understand because she is a female and knows more than I do about it, and she will help you, i'm sure of it - don't feel uncomfortable about asking her, its a part of puberty and growing up, and your mother will be glad to help you through it. (you can probably perform a google search and it can provide some good suggestions for you)

Your parents will understand you better than anyone else ever will, they can provide you with answers to almost anything because they have experienced the exact same thing at one time or another. They are there to love you and help you through your confusions and problems.

I know this is weird of me answering... but i figured i would since no one did.

I hope that this information was a self-esteem and confidence boost, and I hope I helped you

If your comfortable wearing those clothes just go for it don't let anyone stop you.. You can shave your armpits.. If you can't see the hair while wearing those clothes then I wouldn't worry about it.. And if you are worried just shave a little

Good luck :)
