to be alarmed that at 32

[Cblockbitch]

I am sprouting hairs from previously hairless places? wtf is this my life now?

[Sandinyourshoes]

I had a lot of electrolysis for bristly chin hairs in my 20s and it seems to have paid off, now in my 60s with only the odd chin hair and no nipple hairs grew back either. However came home from work one day to find a long black hair sticking out of my nose - it was definitely not there when I set out that morning! Also I get the odd random cheek hairs and a lone white hair growing from my right earlobe and another lone dark hair from my left ear.I also have to keep an eye out for sudden eyebrow growth, I carry a 12x mirror, tweezers and nail scissors for any overnight or longer trips. An eyelash comb is handy for eyebrow trimming. It’s ridiculous how much hair is growing just where I don’t want it - it can’t possibly be needed or it would have always been there!

Welcome to hormones! 😎

[MsJudgemental]

kitty It’s like a rotary shaver. Completely painless and hassle free. Best thing I’ve ever used and I’ve tried them all! Great for bristly moustaches and that annoying peach fuzz on the sides. Got it from Boots.

[penisbeakers]

OKAY so I hit post oops..

When I hit my thirties i was gifted with - sprouting thick dark hair on me chin and underside of my throat. INCHES LONG. Thick. Black. Hair. My hair has never been that dark!

My armpit and lady garden ended up being like EPPING FUCKING FOREST. Like one week of not shaving owt = GORILLA. Oh and then came the really long silver pubes.

It's ever so exciting. I'm forty-one now, and basically every month I get this surge of dark hair and I am rather convinced I'm just about to read my FINAL FORM.

[penisbeakers]

achieve my final form, even.

[Titsywoo]

Since my mid-thirties I've been getting progessively hairier in places I shouldn't be and the hair on my legs and foof are dying off after years of waxing/philips lumea.

I'm having a new bathroom fitted at the moment and am having an extra mirror fitted - a smaller round one on an extending arm which has 10 times magnification - just so I can spend the morning plucking my face.

[Galvantula]

Anyone else reading this thread and rubbing their chin

I already have the thigh pubes but I'm worried I'm in denial about a beard or moustache. Scared to look. 😥

[Threewheeler1]

Has anyone experienced the ear lobe hair yet?
Big, thick, inch long black one. Now you see it, now you don't.
Can't see stuff without my glasses now so it's hit and miss whether I can actually remove stuff.
Have had a moose-tache since my youth but now I have a lovely Victorian gentlemans' beard that nothing will get rid of.
As for enlisting help, I put OH on 'Whisker Watch' years ago.
Pffft. He's no Bill Oddie, in that time I've removed enough facial hair to make a carpet but he hasn't so much as politely dropped a hint that there's a velcro mat on my face.
The kids are much better for this being at chinny-chin-chin height and having 20/20 vision, if not a bit brutal.

I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) so it's much easier for me to say where hair doesn't grow. So that would be the palms of my hands and soles of my feet! There are the odd days in the month where my body gives me a break but generally its a daily battle to remain largely hair free. I've come to the conclusion if I was single I would just become a really...really hairy hermit.

If you find that you seem excessive hairy I wouldn't rule out PCOS...although there's pretty much naff all doctors can do to help.

[MyHairNeedsASnip]

I once had a white hair growing between my shoulder blades, I swear to God it was about 12 inches long before I found it. WTF! I check every now and then but it's never come back

[Fadingmemory]

I am blessed with chin, upper lip & nose hairs. I spend time each day tweezering. They grow so fast! Just off to find the Finishing Touch device.

[Rebecca36]

You could try putting it in rollers, that would control it for a while.

[CigarsofthePharoahs]

"just for foofs"
That really tickled me!
Alas mine now looks like our lawn that was ruined by the hot weather. Empty patches and one randomly long straggly bit.
As for my face...
I think the highlight was the ingrowing hair. I had quite the pimple. Managed to evacuate a thick black hair and thought it was sorted. No such luck. Several days later I realised another was lurking in there. Realising that follicles often grow in clusters of three I investigated the following day and did indeed find another. This was not all though, a fourth was hiding beneath even that one.
This left quite an ugly mark on my chin for ages.

[safetyfreak]

This is funny as I had few chin hairs from the age of 20! I am now 29 and it has not got worse but still.

[Orchardgreen]

Well, I’m 61. It’s great, nothing left to wax 😀

[ladydickisathingapparently]

This will out me but I don’t care. Back when my oldest son was little his spelling homework consisted of writing sentences using each word.

Now ds1 was a clever little bugger and devoted aeons of time to squeezing as many words as possible into as few sentences as he could get away with.

One week he had to use hairy, hairier and hairiest.

Can you see where this is going?

“I am hairy, my Dad is hairier but my Mum is the hairiest.”

Cheers kid. Poor teacher was bracing herself for a werewolf on parents evening.

[Undercoverbanana]

I have more grey pubes than brown ones. The aging process is a beautiful thing.

[SaintJimmy]

Afraid so!

[meddie]

Get one of these and keep in your bag. handy little device and brilliant for getting the grey chin haors you cant see because youre eyesight has gone

That gave me a proper belly laugh.
I think our kids are related.

[Angelil]

Wow, my heart bleeds. Thanks to PCOS I've had unwanted chin hair since the age of 15. You are lucky to have made it to age 32 with none.

[Walkinthecountry]

I tweezed my first nipple hair and TWO grew back. Not happy. I now trim nipples and chin when required for fear of the same thing happening again.

[Angelil]

@theyoniwayisnorthwards Sadly laser/electrolysis didn't work on me...and I have pale skin and dark body hair so the type of person it is supposed to work the best on!! #fail

@Hedwigsangryinch THANK GOD I'm not the only one. Random hairs sprout in quite a few places thanks to PCOS!!

[Seafoodeatit]

I love this thread

I have pcos so odd random hairs are a fact of life, though every pregnancy seems to gift a few more chin hairs and I'm about to turn 30 (Thanks kids!) I often think of a line from a tim minchin song - neck down alopecia - oh how I wish! I used to only need to shave my legs but now I can't tell where pubes end and leg hair begins, they sort of meet down my thighs. .
