Leg hair help

[Umidontknow]

My daughter is only 9 so I feel awful even posting this, but has anyone started hair removal on their legs and if so what method have you used? She is very much an outdoorsy tomboy and not at all bothered about what she looks like, what she wears ect although did suddenly ask to get her hair done, but a lot of the girls in her class are and so are a lot of the boys tbh. She is fair haired but has a lot of quite dark leg hair growing now so it's noticeable. She hasn't said anything and I absolutely haven't brought it up but I'm worried it may start to get mentioned by the others in her class soon. Hopefully when she's back at school she will be back in tights so we won't have to think about it until next year, but just looking for suggestions really. Feels wrong having to even consider this while she is still so young and I don't want to create a hang up, but i also don't want other kids to cause one either - most are really lovely kids, but a few are quite spiteful.

I would wait until she asks, but be ready.

Ah I understand completely. My daughter's 18 but I noticed this at the same age. I popped to Boots to buy the razors and gel I preferred as a pretext and just initiated the conversion about how she could let me know whenever she was ready(or not) to shave her legs. Think it was about 6 months later that she came back to me. I wanted it to be her decision but to know that I would be there to support her with whatever was needed.

She’s 9 years old. Keep her active and thinking about other things. Allow her brain to mature at its own pace.

When she is interested, she will tell you and you can deal with it then.

I do, she doesn't stop and spends most of her life covered in mud and horse hair. I'm also very aware she is 9 years old and it isn't something I was planning to bring up for years if ever, but the hair is now getting dark and thick. A boy in her class relentlessly picked on her and others last year (although things have improved) but he particularly targeted their appearance - not there is anything wrong with how she looks. It really started to get to her. So I am worried he and some of the others may pick up on it. She also has a habit of bottling things up before she talks about them, and has mentioned me shaving my legs a few times lately so i do think its on her mind. I'm just looking for people who have had similar and how they approached it I guess.

I experienced a similar situation with my DD. I of course wanted to help her but the last thing I wanted was to let her loose with a standard razor.
To start with I got the veet sensitive cream and she used that for a while and it worked well then when she started secondary school I got her a Philips wet and dry lady shaver as it felt safer than a razor.
The shaver was much easier and less messy than the cream, had no issues with cuts, in fact she still occasionally uses it now almost 4 years later.
