Default how many teens have facial hair?

i'm 19 and i've had mild facial hair for almost a year now, it is all light and you can't see it at all except from very close, but i am terrified it will get darker...what are your experiences with this? when did you first grow facial hair, and how dark was it?

Well, Im 16 and I've had some facial hair since I was about 13. My facial hair used to be very dark until my doctor put me on DepoProvera and that has lightened it a lot, but I still need to wax about every 2 months. But, I think a lot of women suffer from this, and not just women with PCOS.
I hope this helps you!

I noticed facial hair when I was about 12. I was sitting in class and touching my face and found a long hair on my chin. Now I am 16 and have at least 30 long black hairs on my neck, chin, and along my jaw. Ugh, fantastic.

I don't even remembered when I started getting facial hair, it's just always been there. I'm 19, but I've never had my face waxed or shaved or anything like that. It's not dark (just a few ingrown hairs on my chin and my jawline), but I have one of those Finishing Touch things that trims the hair, and I use Aveeno Positively Smooth face lotion.

I do, I hate it. I'm 19 and have been shaving my face since I was about 14. It drives me insane, especially when my fiance wants to touch my face! I only told him 2 days ago that I have manly facial hair, and that I shave it. He didn't get grossed out though, he just kissed me. I'm still very self conscious about it though.

I'm not a teen anymore (25) but by 14 I had darkening hair on my arms, hair on my chest, chin and upper lip. I told the dr and she said, "oh, everyone has that"

ha, had she only listened to me I wouldn't have had to try so long to be dx'd.


I used to pluck. Now I wax because if I don't it's um, how should I put it, SCARY. But, I went a long time not knowing what was causing it or how to prevent future growth.

I have facial hair and never used to think anything of it really because both my parents are pretty hairy, but then I learned it wasn't my genetics, hence why I'm here. A vast majority of my facial hair is thicker, but blonde, so you can;t really notice it. I do have DARK upper lip hair though. I wax it to keep it in check instead of shaving. since shaving will make that area break out and if I wax it lasts for a good week at a time.
