Question 1

does shaving hair for girls change the nature of the hair?

Accepted Answer

Not really...: Shaving hairs anywhere on the body is ok (as along as one does not create a skin rash by shaving too closely or getting too many ingrown hairs). Since the portion of the hair that is outside of the hair follicle is not alive, one's body does not know the hair has been cut (so cutting hair does not affect anything inside the body). The cut ends feel stiffer and sharper until they wear down again.

Question 2

what can cause for girls to lose their hair on their head at a young age?

Accepted Answer

Stress!: The number one reason for hair loss is stress.  Hormones may play a role in hair loss as well, so doctors get thyroid levels and hormone levels.   Go see your doctor.  Medications also can do it.

Question 3

is normal for girls to have chest hair?

Accepted Answer

Not usually: Hirsutism is male pattern hair growth in women. It may be due to excess androgens, especially testosterone. This may be due to polycystic ovarian syndrome. Discuss this w/your Family Doc, GYN or Planned Parenthood. There are medical options to deal w/metabolic issues of PCOS. Laser hair removal can get rid of hair once &amp; for all.
