My DH seems to enjoy the fact that I am now growing a goatee that could rival his any day. He has created what we call The Lab, where we indulge in our "grooming ritual". Basically, I get to lay down and take a snooze while HE plucks all of the little hairs out of my chin under a brilliantly bright light. Talk about relaxing!
So glad to know I am not alone in this!

yup sounds about right when i was pregnany with my son i had way more facial hair growth than i did when i was pregnant with my daughter i blamed it on the extra testosteron in my body cause i was carrying a boy. dont know if this is the case for every one but it was for me.

That is why we gain in our bellies, like a guy and grow hair like a guy. I don't know all the info but estrogen plays an important role in a women's body. It helps keep our cholesterol down too

It seems I have had chin hairs all my life. Started plucking. Then waxing. Now I shave every other day ... and sometimes in between. Sorry ... but the "old wives' tale" is true. Thus I do NOT touch the peach fuzz on my cheeks.

(He also copped a plea of temporary insanity due to his French heritage for even proffering such a ridiculous idea.)

This has been a hoot to read! I have laughed so hard and loud reading this whole post! And that's because I am in the same hairy mess as the rest of you. I am horrified to see that some of my peach fuzz has grown so long. And the hair on my chin grows in hours I swear. I have noticed one thing. No one uses that stinky Nair for the face. No pulling needed with the tweezers, no ouchs with that spring thingy, just a bad smell. However, the hairs are kept at bay for at least a little bit longer. I use it, and then I might use my tweezers when the first hairs show their ugly faces , but then back I go back to the Nair and get those suckers with a vengeance. At least my facial hair is blonde and white. But how it glistens in the sun :lol:
