I have always thought it was just because I once used my dads shaver when I was younger, jus being silly, I have always blamed that for it, but it isn't from that. I also have extra growth on my chest, and in between my breasts, where it is visible so I have started shaving it away... which really only causes it to grow thicker but I don't see what other choice I have now. I was just wondering if anyone has any ways that they know of to remove hair, both from my face and chest? I don't have the money to go get it done by electrolysis or whatever. I'm not allowed to go on the pill until I lose some weight but I hate the fact that I have to shave... I shave my chin but not my upper lip. I have avoided doing that because I don't want it to grow anymore than it already is...  So yeah... thoughts would be great  Thanks girls... |
I find it a lot more helpful to tell myself that though most women don't have the sort of hair growth I have, it's normal for me and for a lot of other women. After all, one of the reason that many doctors don't make a big deal of it is that they know that so many women
doactually have the sort of male-type hair growth that I have.
With regard to your breasts, you can get off without shaving them because it's not essential to let them be seen by others. You say you shave your chin but not your upper lip, which suggests that your moustache isn't all that heavy. Shaving it will certainly not make it any heavier or coarser. You might find shaving less hard to bear if you were to use a men's-type electric razor. I know it sounds a bit strange, but I think my rather funky purple/blue Philips rechargeable razor is a lot less masculine a way of removing my moustache and beard growth than shaving with a blade razor would be.
