Hi,

Thanks for your query.

There is no harm in removing the pubic hairs.

You have the following options -
1. Use a depilator - the electronic kind, makes sense to invest in one.
2. Use a depilatory cream - again easily bought off the store.
3. Use a razor.
4. Visit a beauty salon where you can wax the local area.

Take care.
