To be traumatised at having a bloody great hair on chin!

[MrsKiplin]

Seriously it's at least an inch long. I've shaved the f$$$$r off now but what if it comes back? What if there's more? What does it mean? I don't know anyone who has chin hair!!! Am still dealing with hitting forty and being a size sixteen, am not psychologically ready to be the bearded lady as well!!!

It’s hormonal. Pluck, do not shave or get them waxed off (I have to )

I get waxed I mean - sorry.

Just pluck it out.

There will be more, plucking is the way forward.

Are you sure you don't know anyone of 40 with some sort of chin hair?

Seriously? I never knew this!!

What an OTT reaction! Just pluck it out. You have tweezers don't you?

Honestly this is a recurring nightmare of mine, you are NOT being unreasonable!!!!!

Pluck it. This is the first of many, trust me.

I was in my late 20s when my first chin hair made its appearance. They're always at least 1cm long before you spot them, and have doubled or tripled in length by the time you locate tweezers.

My DS has been instructed that when I'm in my nursing home he must either visit daily to pluck my chin, or pay someone else to do it.

Well my tone is obviously slightly tongue in cheek but I am genuinely quite repulsed.

Nah, I love plucking chin hair! So satisfying!

I get my chin and upper lip waxed every month.

Have been doing since I was about 37.

My dh helpfully suggested I grow it for Movember.

I pluck mine. I also have one on my temple and on the side of my nose. I'm clear one day and then they appear by magic overnight

I've been doing mine from mid 20s. I pluck the strays and wax eyebrow and lip

Jesus Christ don't shave your chin! Now all those hairs are going to grow back all stubley

It's called a hag hair. I thought I had two from two different follicles but I have two coming from one follicle so I have three. Great! : /

How have I missed this?! I genuinely thought that as a woman, facial hair was one shitty thing I wouldn't have to face. I stand very corrected!

Fuck me who doesn't have a pet chin hair? Not really something one brags about though is it?

YANBU. DS - who is 19 & therefore old enough to know better - told me today that I needed to start shaving.

I was v.upset & went to my room to cry.

Omg. I would be ecstatic of I only had one chin hair to pluck!!! I have them growing under my chin too.

A magnifying mirror and a decent pair of tweezers.

It's my guilty pleasure to have a good old plucking session when I am all alone, watching dross on telly.

Derelictwreck I just panicked and grabbed Dh's Mach 3. I wasn't thinking long term.

If I didn’t wax I think I would have a beard and moustache

Be thankful it’s only one, though I do feel your pain. I’m only 31 and I have multiple which I think were made worse by getting them waxed last year. I’ve had an explosion of the fuckers and I can’t attribute it to anything else.

I’m shite at getting them when they’re tiny and DH helps me to get them
