I am a woman with nipple hair. (Nothing like baring your soul among friends!) I tried cutting then at first but they became like sharp little needles and really bothered my daughter. I would imagine the *stubble* from shaving would be even worse and I certainly wouldn't want electrolosis on my breasts. I let mine grow and just left them. They never interfered with nursing and I would recommend mom leave them alone. Diane Karnbach, LLLL (who, as a little girl, was always told that eating spinach would put hair on her chest!!!)
