Almost all women shave their pubes. May not all, but most men do shave their pubes as well. People link pubic hair removal to better personal hygiene. Those who deeply research on the pubic hair topic would end up in a dilemma of whether or not to shave it down there. Contrary to what most people think, there are NO bigger advantages of having a clean and hairless crotch. In fact, the benefits of having pubic hair are far more than disadvantages. Check these fifteen reasons that probably convince you not to shave/wax your pubes again!
1.Shaving/Waxing Causes Microscopic Wounds
Pubic hair removal procedures irritate and inflame the hair follicles, leaving invisible wounds.
2.Frequent Pubic Hair Removal
Regular shaving keeps those wounds unhealed; increasing the risk of infections caused by bacterial pathogens called Group A Streptococcus and Staphylococcus Aureus.
3.Bacterial Infections
Such skin infections can leave permanent scars on pubic area.
4.Bad for Obese People
Obese men and women are three times more likely to suffer from skin complications related to waxing and shaving.
5.Viral Infections are a Headache too
Pubic hair removal can lead to terrible viral infections, not just bacterial. In a recent research conducted in France, 24 out of 30 guys who were suffering from viral infections on their privates admitted to shaving pubes frequently.
6.Diabetes Patients are at a Higher Risk
If you suffer from diseases like diabetes, regular shaving or waxing can lead to serious skin problems or complications.
7.Pubes are Biological Defense
Pubes help prevent the spread of STIs to some extent. However, growing a bush alone to prevent STIs is not a safer sex practice!
