It’s official: the bush is back. We saw pubic hair in the form of the merkin for Maison Margiela’s Spring 2024 runway; and now, pubic hair pants are available to the public thanks to Kim Kardashian’s Skims line.
The thong is made of a slinky mesh with a daring triangle of (faux) pubes attached, in a range of skin tones, textures and hair colours. She’s got everything from classic little black curly hairs, to red and straight. It’s basically a pubic wig – and it will set you back $32 (£24).
Kim Kardashian has, once again, broken the internet. People are going crazy over them.
Will I be buying a pair? No. And I’ll tell you why: there’s no need. I’ve been growing my bush out since the pandemic. My regular wax of choice was called “The Hollywood”, which is as painful as it sounds. But in 2020, the salons were closed and I stopped waxing like everyone else. When everything reopened, I went back to my hairdresser, and returned to the nail bar – but the waxing salon no longer appealed. I liked what I saw. I’ve never been back.
And as a mother and millennial who is constantly finding that everything she likes has fallen out of fashion, there is something very exciting about knowing that there is a part of me that is trendy. Gosh, if anything, I’m early to the trend. I arrived even before Maison Marigeila’s runway.
Honestly, I think pubes are sexy. Trying on my swimsuit in summer in the mirror, I caught sight of some hairs escaping the sides of my high-rise bikini bottoms and thought “that is too sexual”. And it was! Pubic hair is deeply sexual. If you see a hairless woman in a pair of pants or swimming bottoms, you think nothing of it. We are used to it. We see that kind of imagery everywhere. If you saw that same woman with pubic hair, it would be far too risqué. It would be sexually suggestive. People would call it vulgar. It reminds us that this is a woman’s body we’re looking at. There is a vagina under there. She is a sexually mature woman and has desires.

A hairless woman, on the other hand, is sterile, sanitary. A sexless doll. Like a Barbie, she is not only hairless, but nipple-free – and vagina-less, too. Barbie has two smooth mounds on top and nothing downstairs.
That’s why this release makes sense for Kim. She’s already done nipple bras. Pube pants are the obvious next move. Well, either that or some kind of padded, camel-toe legging. If I worked at Skims, that’s what I’d pitch at the next board meeting.
Just as bras were designed in part to cover nipples, pube pants play with the same line between exposure, modesty, and desire. Instead of hiding nipples, Kim put a fake pair proudly on top of the bra, front and centre; so erect they push through the wearer’s clothes. And instead of covering the pubic region, she’s put the hair outside of the pants.
I think this serves as a reminder that beauty fads come and go – and we should never do anything long-lasting for the sake of fashion, because it will just as quickly fall out of style. I feel smug for not permanently lasering off all of my “undesirable” hair, as was once the trend. You can’t come back from that. I bet that the “upper bleph” (blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery) which everyone is rushing to get will become terribly dated too – and Kim Kardashian will be selling you back your eyelids, one day, in the form of a Skims prosthetic.
Let’s not make any more permanent beauty decisions based on trends, shall we?
