Is it normal body hair

my tummy and back is really hairy, i have quite dark skin so i don't really know but im afraid that when i have sex my partner will mention it, or if i go swimming in a bikini then everyone will see but there's loads of people saying if you wax your skin it will make it even worse, and if i ever forget or don't have the time it will grow and become irritating, my friend once shaved his happy trail and he said it itched like hell, don't be harsh when you comment please.

    People come in every shape, size and color. Be happy with the body you have, you'll never have another one! Self confidence is sexier than a perfect body anyway.

    If it's natural I probably looks pretty good on you. Maybe your partner will think it's sexy. :P

    It's never bothered me but, yes, people are getting excessively picky about such things. I never imagined I'd grow up in a world where anal bleaching is an accepted practice.

    But it's your body and your decision (which has to take in how the world will view you). Don't feel pressured, though. People's opinions often aren't their opinions; just what they think society wants them to think.

    I have a "happy trail" as well. I shave it sometimes, but most of the time I just wear clothing and bathing suits that cover my stomach. It's nothing to be ashamed of.

    Get a NoNo, it's a hair removal device that uses lasers, but it's a home product so it's not super expensive, I use one and it's really great. It eventually slows and thins out your hair growth. Hope this helps! :)

    It is normal but if it makes you unhappy you can take action, Do not shave or wax though! speak to your GP, it may be down to a hormone imbalance, this can sometimes be treated simply with a change in diet. A more radical approach would be laser treatment. Also remember that we always exaggerate our own flaws, so what you think is really bad might not be noticed by others

    Lol Yes its very Normal. Depending on how hairy it is, never shave it!!!! it will only get worse! I also have hair on my stomatch and back I usually trim it to make it a str8 line in the winter lol in the Summer I get it waxed!! Nothing at all to be embarssed or ashamed about

    Never shave...never. Waxing is your best bet. Over time the hair grows back finer, softer, and eventually less grows back. My honey runs several waxing centers so I speak from experience.

    If you really don't like it you should shave it every so often, that's what i do. And it's not itchy at all, but everyone is different :)
