“Did pubic hair go extinct while I wasn't looking?" a confused viewer recently asked when watching the dating gameshow Naked Attraction on Channel 4. “What's so wrong about pubes?” chimed another.
Almost two decades after the hairless Hollywood wax became the only acceptable state for the genitalia of women - and to a lesser extent men - is pubic hair finally making a comeback?
It’s a question that model Amber Rose posed when she Instagrammed a nude photo of herself reclined in a chair with her pubes on show captioned "#bringbackthebush", which was later removed from the platform. It sparked an intense debate proving how controversial a few tendrils of hair can still be.
Commenting on the photo, she told Refinery 29 : “I feel like as women, we always feel like we need to shave or wax — and if we don’t, then we’re considered unkempt or unclean or we’re gonna smell funny. I believe that it’s natural and we shouldn’t be ashamed of it.”
