Q: hairy nipples

i am a 25 year old female and have hair around my nipples and on my navel. I have been shaving it as i dont have time to pluck with my kids around. Is there a permanent hair removal solution for this as it is very embarrassing and affects my self esteem very much. doctor

You could try electrolysis for permanent removal. I suggest using a depilatory cream rather than shaving. That's a very sensitive area that you are using a razor on and a cut could be disastrous.
I don't have hair on my nipples but I have a thin line of hair from below my breasts to my navel. It probably just means you have a little extra testosterone, like me.

I haven't used depilatory creams in years but I'm sure Nair or Veet would do the trick. I do shave the line of hair above my navel.

Hey,

I am 19 and I have hair on my nipples aswell. I dont think its because of testosterone (Though it just as well could be). Some women just do. Majority dont I think, but lucky women like me and you.. we get to be special. Smile I shave and it hasnt bothered me, im just careful. But I do agree that a cut could get ugly. Be careful when putting Nair on your nipples, Ive read some cases where they say to avoid areas like nipples and genital areas. One day Id like to get lazer hair removal done, but im managing. I also have hair around my belly button. I used to use nair for that, but I got fed up one day and shaved and it works just fine as long as you keep it up.

My sister uses a cream for her mustache lol. Its made for more sensitive skin areas. You might make sure that what you use if for the more sensitive areas. You don't want a rash or anything.
