Deodarant for girls?

What age should girls start wearing deodarant and if they start wearing it, what kind should it be?

Answer:
I started getting my eldest daughter in the habit at about age 10...by the time your daughter is 11 (if she isn't already) she will be in the habit herself by then. There are products especially for young girls, Teen Spirit is one...
I'd say when they are 12 or 13 or earlier if you notice they have body odor.
11 or 12. But it really depends on the girl.

Dove is a good brand. I use Lady's Speedstick.
A girl should start wearing deodorant when she starts to smell, which usually starts around puberty time when the hormones are changing. I think I was 10 or 11 when I used deodorant in the 70s. The famous Ban roll-on that was wet was what my mother used and I just used hers. Girls can use any deodorant, preferably one that doesn't leave white marks on your clothes.
I started when i was 10. I really like dove, but don't get the really creamy or oily types...
I would start them at age 10 to get them into good habits and there are many good brands. Whatever she likes the smell of.
Deodorant will not substitute for daily showering and bathing.
Body odour is caused by bacteria in the perspiration. Cleanliness will eliminate MOST of it.

A mild deodorant can be used by any teenager; many brands exist .
I got my fist deodorant when I was 9-10. I am 13 now... So my mom just got me Teen Stick. I still use it to this day! :) I wouldn't recommend getting white deodorant only cause it shows.(obvious..)
I started when I was around 10. I've used quiet a few kinds butmy personal favorites are Teen Spirit & Secret.
