Let's be honest: in 2025, when 29% of women under 34 have already had their pubic hair completely removed by their partner, it's time to question this practice and be sure that everyone can do what they want with their pubic hair and, more generally, with their body and their appearance.

In this article, we'll take a closer look at pubic hair: what is it? How? Why? What do we do with it?

The Natural Role of Pubic Hair

Pubic hair isn't there by chance. It plays several essential roles:

Natural Protection

  • Barrier against bacteria and infections
  • Body temperature regulation
  • Protection against friction
  • Reduction of daily irritations

Biological Function

  • Retention of natural pheromones
  • Protection of the sebaceous glands
  • Maintaining bacterial balance
  • Sexual maturity indicator

Let's be clear: pubic hair isn't just a natural whim. These tiny filaments that grow in our intimate areas are true marvels of biological engineering. In 2025, as the "shave-everything" trend begins to be questioned, let's find out why Mother Nature had such a great idea when she gave us this particular hairiness.

Pubic hair, a natural protective barrier

Think of your pubic hair as an army of tiny guardians. Each hair is a soldier standing guard to protect your most sensitive areas. This first line of defense is more sophisticated than you might think.

A Shield Against Intruders

Think of a dense forest: bacteria and other unwanted microorganisms must fight their way through this protective vegetation before reaching the skin. Pubic hair literally creates a physical barrier that traps and slows down these microscopic invaders. It's like having a 24/7 natural security system.

A High-Tech Temperature Regulator

Your body is a complex machine that functions best at certain temperatures. Pubic hair acts like a natural air conditioning system:

  • In summer, they allow air to circulate and sweat to evaporate efficiently
  • In winter, they create an insulating layer that keeps the heat in
  • They regulate humidity to maintain an optimal environment

Shock Protection

Life is movement, and our intimate areas experience a fair amount of friction every day. Pubic hair acts as a natural shock absorber:

  • Reduced irritation from clothing
  • Protection during physical activities
  • Prevention of skin micro-traumas

A Fascinating Biological Role

Beyond their protective role, pubic hair plays a real role in our intimate biology.

The Secret of Pheromones

Pheromones, those invisible chemical messengers that play a role in attraction, find their best ally in pubic hair:

  • They retain these precious molecules
  • Extend their duration of action
  • Participate in natural chemical communication between partners

A Complex Ecosystem

Under these hairs hides a whole beneficial microscopic world:

  • Protection of the sebaceous glands that keep the skin supple
  • Ideal habitat for good bacteria that protect us
  • Maintaining an optimal pH for our intimate health

A Signal of Maturity

The appearance of pubic hair is not a coincidence in our development:

  • Natural marker of sexual maturity
  • Integral part of our hormonal development
  • Witness to our endocrine health

How to Find the Right Balance?

In 2025, it's no longer an all-or-nothing situation. With a trimmer like Billy's, you can choose the length that suits you without sacrificing these valuable natural benefits:

The Ideal Compromise

  • A cut to 3-6mm maintains most protective functions
  • You maintain a clean and well-groomed appearance
  • Biological benefits are preserved
  • Maintenance remains simple and practical

To Each Their Own Style

There is no universal rule. The important thing is to find a balance between:

  • Your personal comfort
  • Your aesthetic preferences
  • Maintaining natural functions
  • Ease of maintenance

Pubic hair isn't a design flaw. It's the product of millions of years of evolution, with every aspect of its presence serving a purpose. In 2025, rather than seeing it as an inconvenience to be eliminated, let's consider it for what it is: valuable allies for our intimate health.

So the next time you pick up your billy, remember that you have a choice. You can maintain and style it without giving up all the benefits nature intended for you. After all, your body is intelligent, and those hairs are there for a reason!

The Risks of Shaving the Intimate Areas

Immediate Risks

  • Micro-cuts even invisible ones
  • Irritations and redness
  • Natural pH imbalance
  • Increased risk of infection

Long-Term Problems

  • Recurring ingrown hairs
  • Dry skin
  • Skin hypersensitivity
  • Change in hair texture

Immediate Dangers: More Insidious Than You Think

Invisible Micro-Cuts

Even with the utmost care, close shaving often creates micro-lesions invisible to the naked eye. These tiny nicks are like open doors for bacteria. You can't see them, but they're there, weakening your natural skin barrier.

The Vicious Circle of Irritations

Post-shaving redness isn't just a cosmetic inconvenience. It's your skin's warning signal, telling you, "Stop, you're going too far!" These irritations cause:

  • Increased sensitivity to touch
  • Persistent itching
  • Discomfort in clothing
  • Vulnerability to friction

The pH Upheaval

Your intimate area has its own balance, its own perfectly calibrated ecosystem. Close shaving disrupts all of that:

  • Modification of natural acidity
  • Disruption of the protective bacterial flora
  • Increased risk of fungal infections and yeast infections
  • Imbalance of natural hydration

The Open Door to Infections

With weakened skin and a disturbed pH, infections have free rein:

  • Increased risk of folliculitis
  • Vulnerability to bacterial infections
  • Sensitivity to external irritations
  • Possible development of mycoses

Long-Term Impact: Lasting Consequences

Ingrown Hairs: A Never-Ending Battle

By shaving close to the skin, the hairs rebel:

  • They grow under the skin
  • Create painful cysts
  • Leave marks
  • Are becoming increasingly difficult to manage

Chronic Dehydration

Repeated close shaving eventually wears out your skin:

  • Loss of elasticity
  • Constant pulling sensation
  • Appearance of scales
  • Chronic discomfort

Hypersensitivity: When Your Skin Can't Take It Anymore

Over time, your skin becomes more and more reactive:

  • Intolerance to usual products
  • Excessive reactions to the slightest friction
  • More frequent burning sensations
  • Permanent discomfort

Hair Modification: An Irreversible Change

Repeated close shaving changes the very nature of your hair:

  • They become thicker
  • The regrowth is stiffer
  • The texture changes
  • The growth direction becomes anarchic

The Solution: A Gentler Approach

The Perfect Compromise

That's where Billy comes in. With its different cutting heights, you can maintain a length that:

  • Avoids micro-cuts
  • Preserves the natural balance
  • Reduces the risk of infection
  • Prevents ingrown hairs

Best Practices

  • Opt for a 3mm cut ideally or a close cut if you really don't want to see any hair.
  • Maintains a clean and well-kept appearance
  • Protect your skin from aggressions
  • Maintains an easy routine

In 2025, it's time to rethink our approach to intimate care. Close shaving isn't an obligation; it's a choice—and not necessarily the best one for your health. With Billy, you have the option to find the ideal length that respects your body while allowing you to feel good about yourself.

Remember: your intimate health is precious, and sometimes saving a few millimeters can mean the difference between a happy intimate area and a series of avoidable problems.

The Alternative: Mastered Pubic Style

With Billy, you have the option to choose from 5 different cutting lengths (0-12mm). Here's why you should opt for a short cut instead of a clean shave:

Advantages of a 3-6mm Cut

  • Maintenance of protective functions
  • Clean and well-maintained appearance
  • Less irritation
  • More comfortable regrowth
  • Minimal risk of ingrown hairs

Everyday Comfort

  • Less itching
  • More natural feeling
  • Easier maintenance
  • Better skin health

The Middle Ground: The Art of the Perfect Cut

In 2025, it's time to put an end to extremes. A clean shave is no longer a must, and growing it out isn't the only option. Between these two options, there's a sweet spot that Billy helps you achieve with its five different cutting lengths. Let's talk about that magical zone between 3 and 6 millimeters that could revolutionize your intimate routine.

The Benefits of an Intermediate Cut

Imagine a cut that allows you to retain all the natural benefits of your hair while maintaining a flawless appearance. That's exactly what a trim between 3 and 6 millimeters offers. At this length, your hair continues to play its essential protective role while remaining perfectly controlled. You get the well-groomed look you're looking for without compromising the well-being of your skin.

Regrowth, often a source of discomfort with a close shave, becomes much smoother and more manageable. Hair grows back naturally, without the prickly feeling that often characterizes regrowth after a full shave. And let's talk about ingrown hairs: with a short cut, they become practically nonexistent. It's simple: by keeping this short length, you give your hair the space it needs to grow normally, without being forced to force its way under the skin.

A Question of Sensation

Everyday comfort takes on a whole new dimension with a short haircut. Gone are the incessant itching that follows a close shave. Instead, you'll discover a surprisingly natural and pleasant feeling. Your clothes slide better, your skin breathes, and you'll even forget you have hair—all while maintaining its natural protection.

Maintenance becomes as simple as a quick pass with your billy every few days, whenever you feel it's necessary. No more long, meticulous shaving sessions, no more extreme precautions to avoid cuts. A simple, quick, and effective routine that fits perfectly into your daily life.

The Secret of a Mastered Style

The major advantage of a short haircut is the freedom it offers you. You're no longer a slave to a restrictive daily shaving routine, nor bothered by excessive hair growth. You can adjust the length according to your desires, your activities, or even the seasons. In summer, you might prefer a 3mm cut to feel fresher, while in winter, you can opt for 6mm for more protection.

With this flexibility comes renewed confidence. You know your intimate area always looks presentable, without looking artificial or over-groomed. It's your natural style, but enhanced.

For Your Skin, A Real Revolution

Your skin is the primary beneficiary of this change in approach. By maintaining a short cut, you allow it to maintain its natural balance. Hydration is better regulated, the skin barrier remains intact, and irritations become rare. Your skin remains supple and elastic, protected by this thin layer of hair that acts as a natural shield against daily aggressions.

This gentler approach results in increased well-being. No more stress about post-shave irritation, no more worrying about ingrown hairs or minor cuts. You gain comfort and confidence, while preserving the health of your skin.

A New Relationship with Your Intimacy

By adopting a short haircut, you're also changing your relationship with your body and your intimate life. You're no longer fighting against your body hair, but rather adopting an approach of harmony and respect. It's a more mature and healthier way of taking care of yourself, one that recognizes that your body has its own intelligence and that sometimes, less can be more.

With Billy as your ally, this transition becomes natural and enjoyable. The integrated LED guides you for an even result, the long-lasting battery lets you adjust your cut whenever you want, and the waterproof design makes maintenance as simple as it is convenient.

The Final Word

In 2025, intimate care is finally becoming what it should always have been: a matter of personal choice and well-being rather than a constraint dictated by fashion or prejudice. The short haircut represents this new, more balanced approach, more respectful of your body and its natural needs. With Billy, you have the perfect tool to explore and maintain this ideal comfort zone, the one that allows you to be yourself, only better.

The Psychological Impact

Social Pressure

By 2025, 28% of women will not practice any form of pubic hair removal, a figure that has almost doubled since 2013. This trend reflects a collective awareness.

Freedom of Choice

  • Every body is different
  • Preferences are personal
  • No obligation to follow trends
  • The important thing is to feel good

Tips for Personal Style

Finding Your Ideal Length

  • Test different heights with Billy
  • Observe your skin's reaction
  • Adapt according to your comfort
  • Changes according to the seasons

Optimal Maintenance

  • Regularity rather than extreme shaving
  • Suitable moisturizing care
  • Listening to your body
  • Adjustment according to activities

The Path to Your Personal Style

In a world where beauty standards change as fast as Instagram stories, it's time to talk about what really matters: your well-being and comfort. With Billy, finding your ideal length isn't just a matter of millimeters; it's a journey toward self-acceptance and confidence in your choices.

The Art of Exploration

The secret to a successful intimate routine begins with exploration. With Billy's five cutting lengths (from 0 to 12mm), you have the opportunity to discover what truly suits you. It's like trying different haircuts, but for your intimate areas. Each length tells a different story, creates a unique sensation, and it's up to you to find the one that makes you feel most in tune with yourself.

Maybe start with a medium length, see how your skin reacts, how you feel. Some people love the feeling of a 6mm cut, others prefer 3mm. There's no right or wrong answer, just your answer.

Listening to Your Body

Your body is talking to you, and it's time to really listen. As the seasons change, your needs change. In summer, you might prefer a shorter cut to feel cooler. In winter, a few extra millimeters provide natural comfort. This flexibility is the luxury of being able to adapt your style to your desires, your comfort, and your lifestyle.

The Importance of Regular Maintenance

Regular, gentle maintenance is better than the occasional drastic shave. It's like caring for a garden: regular, small touches yield better results than occasional severe pruning. With Billy, this maintenance becomes a moment for you, a self-care ritual that contributes to your overall well-being.

Moisturizing your skin, respecting its natural balance, and observing its reactions—all of this is part of a self-kind routine. It's not just about appearances; it's a way of taking care of yourself that reflects a deeper respect for your body.

Beyond the Gaze: The Importance of Taking Responsibility

In 2025, it's time to talk frankly about how other people's opinions influence our intimate choices. Statistics show that 29% of women under 34 have been pressured to completely remove their hair by their partner. It's time to challenge this social pressure and these unspoken expectations.

Your body, your rules. This phrase may sound cliché, but it's never been more true than it is today. Whether you prefer a short, medium, or longer cut, the important thing is that the choice is yours. Not your partner's, not social media's, not society's, but yours.

The Power to Choose

There's something profoundly liberating about choosing for yourself. When you decide on your ideal length based on your comfort and preference, you're taking an act of self-affirmation. You're telling the world, "This is my body, and I decide how I want to take care of it."

This decision may seem small—after all, it's only a few millimeters of hair—but it represents so much more. It's a way to regain control over your body image, to define your own standards of beauty and comfort.

The Courage to Be Yourself

Sometimes it takes courage to buck trends. To say no to a partner who insists on a full shave. To embrace a length that isn't "in." This courage is the foundation of self-acceptance.

Billy is here to support you on this journey. Our mission isn't to tell you what length to choose, but to give you the tools to explore, experiment, and find what truly suits you. Because in the end, true beauty lies in the confidence you have in yourself and your choices.

Towards a New Definition of Intimate Well-Being

In 2025, let's take the time to redefine what intimate well-being means. It's no longer about conforming to external standards, but about creating your own rules. Listening to your body, respecting your preferences, and above all, loving yourself as you are.

Whether you choose 3mm, 6mm, or 12mm, the important thing is that your choice reflects who you are and how you want to feel. That's the true revolution in intimate care: the freedom to be yourself, without compromise.

If we had to conclude

In 2025, it's time to ditch the "all or nothing" dictates and adopt a more nuanced approach to intimate care. With Billy, you can choose your ideal length, the one that truly suits you. The important thing isn't to follow a trend, but to find your style, the one that makes you feel good every day.
