So, my daughter is about to start middle school (6th grade). I was noticing her legs yesterday...she inherited her Daddy's hairiness (his nickname was bear in school). Luckily, the hair is blond.
She clearly is going to have to shave her legs regularly. I was raised by hippie parents who never shaved their legs and never taught me to shave mine. I didn't start shaving my legs regularly until I went to college so I have no idea what age the girls normally start. Shaving your legs sucks, so I don't want her to start too early, because once you begin you can never stop.
So, what age have you found that girls start shaving their legs? The LAST thing I want is for her to get teased in school. I'm worried enough about middle school and the mean girl stuff without her giving them ammo unknowingly.
(I'll throw a poll up, but I'd love comments too on how you taught your daughter....did you go straight to razors or do an electric first?)
