I noticed it a few weeks ago, about half a dozen long straggly mid brown under arm hairs.
She knows all about changes which might happen to her body in the next few years, periods, pubes etc but has not noticed this hair herself.
Should i tell her i have noticed them and ask if she would like me to help her shave them or just leave her be? I made a veiled reference to armpit hair but she just glanced at herself without really looking and said, "well i dont have any hair there!"
I am a bit surprised as i didnt get any pubes until i was 12+ so was not expecting to deal with this yet!
