Well, ask a sister or an older woman to talk to her for you.If all else fails, ask dad to butt in.

P.S.Do you have blond or black hair?If black, try lemon juice to lighten it.Works every time!

I see your name everywhere! Mind if I give you advice here? Well, I will give you advice anyway. I am almost 12 to, and I don’t shave my legs, cause my mom won’t let me either. She gave me this thought,” You don’t have to worry because know one you know is as short as your shins, and if you’re talking to someone they won’t be looking at your legs, and If they do they shouldn’t! Its SO Rude. If you do find someone staring at your legs, say, Excuse me…?” Thats what my mom always tells me. I don’t even want to shave now, because it grows back quicker, and MUCH THICKER AND DARKER. If you have Light (Blonde) Hair on your legs, It will turn DARK brown nexr time if you shave it! PLease take my advice, Lauren! You’re like a sister to me! -ZoEy ;)

i had the same problem and my mom told me i was too young to start shaving so i just waited paitiently (trust me i know its hard) and then at least one night a week before i got in the shower id ask her…eventually she got sick of me asking her and so she just gave in im not sure if it will work for you but i sure hope it does!!

Lauren, give it another shot at asking her if you can shave your legs. But, you know what moms always say, it grows back thicker and darker than ever before, and it’s true! Some people have to shave twice a day, because their hair grows back so fast! Maybe your mom is right maybe you should wait.

If you’re really embarrassed, wear jeans. But in Hawaii, you just have to act like it’s no big deal. People will follow your lead.

My mom says i’m to young also but i want to have beautiful legs.

I started shaving my legs this year, (im 12) My mum didn’t really agree at all, infact i made a deal, i said ill play for my razors and shaving cream, once i had the thumbs up i started!

I actually recommend waxing.. yeah i know painful! But my legs are kinda ruined by shaving already! I have little dark dots everywhere. If you surely want to stick to shaving buy a good quality razor!!

Good Luck! =]

i really wanted to shave my legs last year but my mom thought i was too young. (fifth grade) But i mentioned to her that i really needed to shave and she’s not the one in MY body all day. She didnt know how i think i look. So just tell your mom that and she’ll probably let you.

I begged my mom to shave my legs, and she let me. But you also know that you will have to shave them about ever three or four days. So just to let you know you need to take good care of your legs! Good Luck! -Nicole

you should enjoy not having to do it because you do it for the rest of your life forget about it and enjoy life!

I just started when I was in 5th grade.And my mom didnt know she saw,and it was ok!!

i have an idea for the girl who really wants to shave her legs, but her mom thinks she is too young. You can say to your mom that you want to buy this really nice dress but your legs are to harry.

PS. When you start shaving , just shave from the knee down . Trust me

i sat down with my mom and talked to her about things…and i mentioned shaving but she wouldn’t give in.

So what i did i took my sister old razor and tried and i showed her and if you dont have jacked up lookin legs because you cut them when shaving she will most probably give in

tell your mom that you think its time that you should start shaving. if she still doesnt let you then te;; her that eveyone does and you are old enough. i shave and im younger than you!

I started shaving when I was 11, it was actually before graduating grade 5 because I was wearing a dress. My legs weren’t that hary actually but for me it seemed like it.

I was scanning a magazine a bought before that said “Ashley Tisdale’s Shaving Secrets”. It was about her talking about how old to shave at, etc. I brought up the conversation with my dad because it would be out of the question with my mom. My dad wasn’t really sure so he asked some women who are is co-workers since they have experience with shaving (my mom doesn’t need to shave). My dad said it was alright and he said that I still had to check with my mom. My mom wasn’t to crazy about the idea but I was crying and being really annoying so they eventually gave in. They said that I could, and I did :) I don’t use the one with creme because it gives holes and I’m not comfortable with it. I use the electric one and I think they’re really good because they also do a really good job ;) I shave every Saturday or sometimes I forget to and yeah, I just make up for it that next Sat. It’s actually now a pain because it takes time in my day and I’m a really lazy person :) But I think that when you notice you have hair, that’s when you bring up the discussion! :)

you should really tell her that you would like to. I’ve already started and I’m 12 almost thirteen and I know other girls who have started too. don’t worry, just tell her!

well i started shaving in 5th grade …………………….. you should tell your mom that it will make you happy to shave and that you are now old enough to start………………… well thats pretty much how i would haddle it………………..bye

luv britty

hey lauren, you should try veet. its way better and safer than a razor. all my friends use it and tell me to use it instead of shaving because you can cut your legs. I don’t shave yet but i feel the same as you. my friends mom told me that I should shave when im older because she said she had a friend who started shaving when she was younger and then her legs look like a gorilla because hair grows quicker and thicker if you start to lung. So maybe try veet first because its like waxing but only its like shaving because its shaving cream stuff and then you use this rubber thing that looks like a razor and then you just use it like a razor. just read the directions if your mom will let you veet because my friends got great results!. Good Luck! -Jullisa just turned 12, California :P

i just started shaving a little over a month ago and it is nothing special, although it does make your legs feel super smooth. If she still says no in a couple months, ask her if you can use nair. i dont use it but some of my friends do and it works great, and you can not get cuts or anything

its awesome

~Natalie

you need to show her your legs and see wht she thinks. before i shaved i used a hair remove and after i got a little older i started to shave. it worked perfectly. right now i’m using venus breeze with the shave gel bar things and u wont get cut. all u have to do is get ur legs wet. I hope this helps!

You can as ask your mom for hair removal cream. You just rub it on your legs and the cream (and the hair) comes off! THats what I’m gonna do when I’m ready. I might not need too cause I have blonde hair, thankfully!

Try some lotion. If you want your legs to looks good. Buy the kind that make your legs all shiny, and gloden like models. Or celbrities

When i had to i asked my mom and she said the same thing your mom said. I showed her my legs and i kept asking. i also told her that all my friends do it. So she said Yes

Well i started shaving when I was 9. I perswaded my mom to let me by showing her how bad they looked and that I looked like a bear! I think she let me mostly because I have black leg hair!!!!! I’m 11 now. Its not all that importanat cuz I forget a lot!!!!!

Sugaring. It is the best way to remove hair. Unlike shaving, your legs will end up smooth and shaped. Shaving results in your legs being bumpy, and only lasts 1-2 days. Sugaring is quick and lasts 4-6 weeks, depending on your hair thickness. Sugaring is very simple, and very cheap. Who really wants to spend their allowence on razors anyway? Plus, sugaring is naturel. The ingredients consist of sugar, lemon, and honey. Sugaring can also be used anywere on the body, icluding face. It’s alot less painfull than waxing and the paste is water soluble, easy for cleaning up any mess you make.

Hope that helps!

you should ask her for advice of when u start

you should prove to your mom that you are old enough

I dont wanna shave my armpits. I have blonde hair and I dont want it to become dark :[

I do it some times but I have never cut myself. I am going through pupirty so I have it under my armpits.

Lucky!!! I didn’t cut myself the first time I shaved but a week ago I cut myself right on the top of my leg, like where it is hardest. I won’t be able to shave over that for weeks!!!! Ughhhhh!!!!!! But good luck and go slowly, don’t rush!!! (That’s how I cut myself!!)

I started last year when i was 10. I asked my sister for help and she told me to always do it in the shower with a good razor, and shave gel. I started because my legs were really hairy and noticable, I had to change for gym and i felt really insecure about it so i started, i just had to remember to do it without putting to much pressure on my legs. i think that you should start because i felt more confident in myself when my legs were shaved and you’ll probably feel better too! Good luck and be careful!.. i still have trouble with my knees!

• Em :^)

i did it when i was 10

I thought we ment shaving under the arms, I do. But my legs, no way, they totally are prickly if you shave them.
