Reasons you should not shave your pubic hair, according to TIMES OF INDIA
They exist for a purpose
Pubic hair are there for a reason. Being the most sensitive part of our body, it is much prone to rashes and itching. Lack of friction may trigger such reactions, making your pubes vulnerable to infections. Avoid razing or shaving them, and let your pubes serve the purpose they have.
VDO.AIProtection against bacteria
Pubic hair acts as a barrier against unwanted bacteria and infections. Pubic hair also protects you against pathogenic bacteria and dust from getting in. So, it’s wise to leave a healthy amount down there and prevent your vagina from unwanted debris.
No more itching
A fresh shave leaves a soft and clean feeling. But in a few days, as hair starts to grow, you get a bad itchy feeling.
No more ingrown hair
Waxing or shaving often leaves ingrown hair into the skin. It’s difficult to remove them, especially from the most sensitive areas. And if not removed, they can actually turn into annoying blackheads and other skin problems. Leave them in a natural state and avoid the problem of ingrown hair.
Maintains vaginal temperature
Reduces the risk of sexually transmitted diseases
