The trend of going natural and embracing pubic hair is gaining momentum as more people discover the health benefits of keeping it au naturel. One of the primary benefits is avoiding skin irritation, cuts, and ingrown hairs that often result from shaving or waxing. The removal of pubic hair may also lead to an increased risk of transmitting sexually transmitted infections, according to a 2017 study. On the other hand, there are a plethora of health benefits to be gained from letting your pubic hair grow. This article will explore some of these benefits as shared by six women who have embraced the bush.
Pubic Hair & Sexual Relationship
The first health benefit of natural pubic hair is the increased confidence that it gives to some women. Studies have found that sexual and relationship satisfaction is correlated with how much their partner's pubic hair removal practices are in line with the men's expectations. For women, sexual and relationship satisfaction is correlated with whether they meet their partner's expectations and their use of pubic hair removal as a way to enhance their femininity. More importantly, some women feel more confident when they honor their hair preferences than when they shave or wax. It also shows that they are confident in their bodies, regardless of what their partners may think.
Outgrow your ingrown Hair
The second health benefit is avoiding painful and unsightly ingrown hairs. A 2014 study found that 60% of women who had ever removed their pubic hair had experienced complications, with abrasions and ingrown hairs being the most common. Those who have embraced the bush agree that the absence of ingrown hairs is a significant advantage of natural pubic hair. No more worrying about finding the right shaving cream or post-wax oil to prevent them. By embracing the bush, they have also found that they can enjoy more attention from potential partners who appreciate a full bush and think it is sexy
The Natural Powerful State
The third health benefit is feeling powerful. For some, having pubic hair is like giving the finger to that prepubescent look that porn made so popular. Having pubic hair makes them feel powerful, womanly, and sexy. It is all about feeling confident and body positive in their natural state, and they embrace it fully.
Freedom from chafing
The fourth health benefit is avoiding chafed and bumpy skin. Shaving pubic hair can cause itching, and 80% of people who groom their pubic hair report experiencing it. Additionally, a 2016 study found that pubic hair removal can cause skin injuries, including serious injuries that require emergency medical intervention. For women who have experienced the itching and bumps caused by shaving, growing out their pubic hair has been a revelation. They no longer experience irritation or chafing from their spandex shorts or underwear.
Avoid Dysplasia
The fifth health benefit is avoiding pubic hair removal and vaginal irritation. A 2017 study found that pubic hair shaving is associated with inflammation, especially when using a razor. Additionally, research has shown that shaving could increase the risk of dysplasia (precancerous skin changes). Chemical forms of pubic hair removal have also been found to cause injuries, according to research from the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology. By embracing natural pubic hair, women can avoid the pain, irritation, and health risks associated with removing it.
