Facial hair????

Question

I have these little black hairs that grow on my chin and face sometimes. Some are blonde and some are black. Im only 17 and it makes me feel self conscious when people point it out. What causes this? I don't want to shave my face like a man. So I remind myself to pluck them at least one a week. Why am I growing these little black facial hairs like a 13 year old boy going through puberty????
​
​If this is offensive to anyone, I apologize. It's not my intent.

Answer

I'm 23 and have hairs on my chin. The more I pluck the faster it grows ????. Lol

Answer

I have a few thick dark hairs on my chin. I just pluck them as they pop up. It is a part of my daily routine to check my chin. Hope this helps you feel more "normal"

Answer

Going thru the same thing, it's really annoying. I have like 5 different tweezers in the house, and one that never leaves my handbag just in case I need to pluck while outdoors.I went to see my Doc about it,it's a condition called "Hirsutism" where your ovaries flare up and are producing a little too much testosterone. We ladies do have testosterone in our bodies but our hormonal imbalance makes is produce too much of it. I had hormonal blood tests done and also an ultrasound done vaginally to rule out PCOS. Glad all my results came back normal, nothing unusual. Now considering electrolysis to see if it will work. Hope this info helps someone.

Answer

I think that's fairly normal! I have one on my chin that always grows, one on the left side of my neck, two on my right breast... Always in the exact same places! I think age and puberty causes more and more to pop up. At least they're not too bad to pluck ;)

Answer

I totally understand the pain. I don't have much hair on my body for the first 19 y. Now I am loosing the hair where I needed and growing strong hair where I don't really want to see ?. Lazer treatment works but it's very painful especially people with dark skin like me they focus on the nurve's so it's much more painful. You have a choice still.

Answer

Could be a hormone imbalance. Or just one of those things.

Answer

If you don't loose that after puberty it could be a sign of PCOS. I have (and hate it) but it's not something you can't get rid of quickly.

Answer

I've had this problem since I was little and it has never gotten any better. It is a hormone issue for me. When I went to the dr about it they tested for several things though.

Answer

I have little dark hairs like a mustache. Not that thick and ppl tell me they can see them when they're really close to my face but I feel like that too. I don't want to shave it like a boy.
