17 Women Who Embraced Their Body Hair And Gained Happiness

Your hair, your body, your decision.

The way people care about your body hair can be very disturbing. It’s wild because men are allowed to have them, but women are dictated to shave any visible hair on their bodies because they’re deemed “unhygienic.” We’re not saying men and their 4-in-1 are bad, though.

Jokes aside, it’s amazing to see that more women are finding it themselves to shave no more. And that those who do, do it for themselves and because they enjoy the process and/or the result. No more women getting nightmares because they went to get a Starbucks sleeveless in summer. No more women feeling stressed out because their family might say something about it.
