I have about 20 on my chin, several on each side of upper lip and a giant one on my neck plus 3 on my chest. I keep shaving the face ones and pulling the others.

I come from a long line of very hairy women. It used to be something that made me so embarrassed and uncomfortable because I felt like I was the only woman like this. For years I used depilatories on my face, but I have such sensitive skin that my face and neck would be red for 2 days and it would only last a week and then the vicious cycle started all over again. When I started taking care of my dad, I used to shave him with an electric razor and I tried it. I do shave EVERY morning, but I am now okay with this. Somehow I have come to consider this more of a blessing than a curse. If I could change it I certainly would ( like extreme makeover) but I am alive, healthy and happy most days, so what if I have some facial hair!
My daughters are both so afraid and truth be told the same thing will certainly befall them one day, but there is a lot worse to be afflicted with.
The one real promise I had my children make to me is that if I ever am put into a rest home type situatiuon, someone will make sure to shave me regularly!

Being a brunette I've had a "mustache" ever since I can remember. I bleached it until I got pregnant and then started using manicure scissors to trim it off. Now it is not as noticeable, but still have a few hangers on above the corners of my mouth. Ugh.
And with my "advanced age" I have a few of those wretched things on my chin --- but usually only one at a time. I know there is more than one because they grow in different locations!

I have this one mutant hair that appears every so often just under my chin. I just yank it out.

I made Jack promise me that if I ever get to the point where I'm old & out of it and can't take care of them that he has to make sure it gets done. ;)
