I leave for basic training in April and was wondering if I should keep shaving my pubic area or start now with letting it grow in? The only reason I ask cause it itches like hell when its growing in I was just wondering if I would have time to keep it shaved there

Doubt you will have time when you are in training.

I would let them grow in.

The itching will not last that long past a week or two... and as others have said... you are going to be lucky to have enough time to shower and shave your face in a rush when still in basic training.

You will be through basic soon enough, you can resume afterwards.

Depends on whether you want to be shaved when you're in the public shower.

Have you asked your Recruiting Officer? The question would probably make his day.

Suggest letting it grow. During basic training, there is hardly any time to do the "necessary" functions let alone the nice ones. Best Wishes.
