Question
hi, i would like to know what to do with pubic hair. is it better if it is shaved or just trimmed? coz i think that these hairs may affect hygiene.
Answer
Actually, you do not need to do either - your pubic hair is perfectly natural and supposed to be there. If you need to trim or shave, then trimming is better - less chance of infection and razor burn!
