Can you remember how old you were when you started using deodorant?

[Y0rkshirelass]

I ask because I think DD may need to start using some.
Poor lass is only 9 but I have noticed on hot days she is coming home from school a litle pongy, even with bathing/showering daily and having clean clothes on every morning.
I don't remember using deodorant until secondary school, is she too young at 9? I don't want her to start to feel self-conscious about it.
Also, can you get deodorant that is not anti-perspirant (I'm assuming it is healthier to still let her sweat??), and is is possible to get it in a roll-on of some sort as she hates aerosols?
Thanks!

my niece gets BO she 5 my sister took her bto doctors and there no medical problem she uses deodorant
think she uses spray
maybe some thing like the dove cream bar deodorant would work ok
hope that helps

think my dd was using deoderant in junior school,yr 6 I think.Her cousin used it when much younger so not unusual.

I know Lush do deoderant bars that are not anti-perspirant but might be a bit fiddly for her to use - I'm sure if you had a look even in Boots you would get something - but I've only seen sprays aimed at young children tbh

Thanks, I will try Lush and have a mosey around Boots.
She recoils in mock dramatic horror if anyone sprays anything, so I don't think she'll put a spray one anywhere near her body!
I don't think it's a major BO problem as it's not every day, I just notice it when it's been a particularly hot sweaty day.

I use a rool on by a Co called Kiss my face, is all eco friendly no parabens and all that, is lavender flavour and get this.....it actually works-I got it in tesco.

nickiey that sounds fab as she likes lavender, but we don't have a tescos

i was about 10 i think!

i didnt start using it until i was in secondary school...

i have a septemebr birthday so i would have bee about 12

Secondary school for me too must have been about 12.

11 oe 12 I think. I didn't need it, but all the girls were using it. Much like my first bra, really!

you could try any of these

I think I was 11 or 12.

She could also use a stick, if she hates aerosols. I find roll-ons too wet.

about 10
