My DD1 was 9 in April. Shes the second tallest in her year and has been a bit "hormonal" for a few months. Today i noticed that she's growing underarm hair, its already over a cm long. I didn't start developing till i was 12 and am a bit unsure of how to help her. Shes a redhead and the hair is orange, should I encourage her to remove it as i don't want her bullied and the only other girl in her class going through this was waxed by her mum
I use a mooncup so have no sanitary products in the house.
What do I need to buy for when her time comes? Its been a while since I started and there must be better products out there for teens than there were when I was young
