4
Don't Make Your Best Friend Have to tell You!
5

• At puberty a lot of changes happen to your body

6
SKIN

• When you are a child you sweat -
• but at puberty you smell!

7

• The sweat glands under your arms and around your
  genitals come thundering into action!

8

• You may need to
• use a deodorant/
• antiperspirant, but
• target the nozzle
• carefully. The
• chemicals can
• trigger an asthma
• attack in some
• people!

9
Underclothes get stained and grubby, with all
that sweat and all those dead skin cells.
Bacteria get working overnight, so your clothes
smell even worse the morning after!
10

• So change your underclothes often.

11

• And hang your school uniform up to air when you
  come home from school.

12

• And remember
• Nothing is better than clean skin!

13
FEET

• The largest number of sweat glands are on your
  feet.

14
Its great in here nice and damp and smelly!

• Bacteria love the moist leather or fabric of
  your shoes!

15

• Take your shoes off and let them dry out when
  you get home.
• Its a good idea to wear an alternate pair every
  day.
• Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

16

• If you put insoles into your shoes, these may be
  taken out and washed, to make your shoes smell
  less.
• You might also put foot powder inside your shoes
  or on your feet.

17
HAIR

• The hair follicles from which your hair grows
  produce oil which keeps your hair smooth.

18

• This oil, dead skin cells and the sweat glands
  in your scalp can make your hair greasy, and
  look dirty.

19

• Wash regularly with shampoo.
• Massage your scalp to remove the dead skin
  cells, dirt and excess oil.
• Rinse well with clean water

20
TEETH

• Clean your teeth twice a day after breakfast
  and before bed.

21

• During the day rinse your mouth with water to
  get rid of particles sticking to your teeth.

Now your friends will be happy to be near you!
23

• And theyll never need to bend your ear!
