Vent from 'Hairy Mary'
Hey People!
Just thought i'd have a bit of a vent on this forum today as my facial hair problem is getting me more down than usual.
ok i know this might sound a bit weird, but you know how people say that guys generally think about sex every 7 seconds or whatever, well for this chick its FACIAL HAIR. I know it sounds a bit freaky, but its the gods honest truth...last thing before i go to bed, first thing when i wake up...its all i seem to think about lately and its driving me round the bend!!!
Background info: am a 25 year old asian girl living in london, uk. Have battled with facial hair pretty much post-puberty, and its basically been a constant struggle and never ending fued with the evil stuff! I remember getting into an argument at school one day with a classmate when i was around 14 and him saying 'ahh go and shave ur moustache!' Funny now, but not at the 'be all and end all' age:-) Luckily i didnt take to his words literally but came home and told my mum, before bursting into tears...she very kindly waxed the suckers off for me...a couple of years later i also bleached the rest of my face because my cheeks were also hairy. Although its my chin and upper lip area that seem to be the main problem.
Anyway, so 10 long years have gone by which consisted of constant waxing, tweezing and also recently threading...and i dont seem to be any better off. Its like a never ending cycle. To be honest am suprised my hair follicles still have the strength to keep sprouting as i have 'harassed' them so much:) Lately i seem to have become more paranoid about this then anything else...its always at the back of my mind, whatever i am doing...talking to people, out and about enjoying myself, working...and i am fed up.
I guess the only real difference in that time is that more information has become available, ie internet, where people like myself can get a bit more clued up on this stuff and not just continue to think that i am 'abnormal' like i used to do in my teens.
I have recently completely changed my diet, cutting out sugary foods and alot of sat fats and simple carbs, have also been taking saw palmetto, and reading up on the subject trying to aquire as much info as i can to hopefully make a difference to my life naturally...and lets face it, its forums like these (that are discovered by accident in my case) that give people a chance to discuss the 'tabooed' subject, as it is often not discussed amongst friends, however close.
