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!!!

I started to get a full on beard in my twenties. Apparently common for people with anorexia. It's thick.

I'd give anything to have an odd hair.

I have pcos so have quite a few on my chin and neck. I carry a pair of tweezers with me at all times because there's nothing more annoying than when you feel a thick (they're always thick & wiry), stubbly hair under your thumb and being unable to get it out!

I'm nearly 45 and haven't had a chin hair yet, but my DM got them so I'm sure they're coming!

I hate being out and just feeling one and wondering where the fuck it came from as it wasn't their 10 minutes ago but it 4foot long and curly like a pube

I get those weird long out-of-nowhere hairs, but in random places - next to an eyebrow, an inch under my eye, once on my neck! I wish I knew how they could pop up so fast, it's really odd.

I've developed about five in the last year where previously I've only had a couple. Im not sure whether to be more upset about that or the fact that several are white (I'm only 44 and I have v dark hair). It makes it a lot harder to find them to pluck, too!

You have 1 hair. I have about 783 of the bastard things... my standard response to boredom these days it to check if I'm sprouting. I'm not even 40 yet.

I have a prediction. You will become an expert on tweezers. No longer will the 79p things be adequate. Oh no, you'll spend £12.99 on the Tweezerman ones because they're much better & fit in your purse.

My chin hairs are an endless source of pleasure and entertainment. Oh, the joy of sitting stroking them when I’m concentrating on something! The thrill of catching sight of a few unexpected ones when I put on my makeup! The satisfaction of tugging with all my strength to get the wiry little wankers out!

OP, I pity you for having just the one - but don’t worry, the best is yet to come!

I pulled one out recently that was white with a black root. That was novel.

Plucking made mine grow back black so i tries shaving and they are still blond. Now I got a mix of black and blond hairs.

Fist bump from Oklahoma!I've got tweezers everywhere!!!

Pluck it, do NOT shave it. There will not necessarily be more, I have one, grows from a mole and when I first discovered it I thought more would grow but they haven't. I just pluck a ginger splinter type hair from my chin every few months, I don't think anyone else has ever noticed it unless I tell them about it.

I have a couple I just pluck them out

What's wrong with shaving?

Ha Sue51 - I have 1 grey eyebrow hair, it's very strange

I found 3 on my chin as we were driving to Asda last week and I didn't have my tweezers with me (I swear they weren't on my chin when I looked in the mirror 10 minutes earlier!) I was devastated.

Felt like there was going to be a tannoy announcement about the bearded lady in aisle 6!

I have PCOS and have been plucking hairs as thick as razor wire from my chin since 19. Pluck them shaving will only make it 9000 times worse

Ha Ha wait until you get into your 60's. Pluck pluck pluck

What do you mean 60’s I’m early 50’s and my wrist’s hurting from plucking
