It does not matter whether you regularly mow the grass down there or trim it only for the sexy times, we can all mutually agree on the fact that pubic hair grows back in a super-sonic speed. It could be especially frustrating if you are not experiencing the same mercy on your crowning glory.
The purpose of hair down there
It does not matter whether you wax, shave or trim your pubic hair, as soon as you take off the hair, the prickly heads are back the very next day. So, what exactly is the case here? First things first, what exactly is the purpose of pubic hair? Apart from giving us an additional responsibility of buzzing them down every month, they actually serve a very specific purpose.
The ‘grass’ down there helps to provide a cushion against the friction which may cause skin abrasions and tiny, open wounds. Secondly, and more importantly, it acts as a barrier against germs and bacteria from entering the pubic area.
Why does it grow back so fast?
Thankfully, there is nothing really special about the speed of your hair down there. In reality, it is all in your head. We just tend to pay more attention to the regrowth of pubic hair because a) it is shorter and b) the canvas is really empty down there, so the hair draws a lot of our attention.
Think about it this way, if you shaved your head off, you will notice the hair growing back really quickly there as well.
The hair growth cycle
All the hair present in our body follow 3 stages of life cycles. These are growth, stagnation and falling out. When it comes to pubic hair, it takes roughly a month or more for the hair to shed, while on the other hand, the hair on our scalp takes a much longer time. This is the exact reason why our pubic hair will never be able to grow as long as the hair on our head.
