Hair grows on everybody, all over the body including the face, and its purpose is to protect the skin. Most hair growth is fine and can be downy in appearance, but on certain areas of the body hair growth is thicker and darker.

Hair on the head, pubic area and chin (for men) is perfectly normal and often forms part of our image or unique identity. Unwanted hair usually refers to visible hair growth that is not considered by the owner, to be pleasing to the eye.

It is quite common for women to want to remove a lot of their body hair, which may be down to personal desire, trends or because they prefer how it feels to be smooth and free of body hair. Often opting for bleaching (typically for upper lip hair), shaving, waxing or hair removal creams, people may find that this can lead to some undesirable side effects like; ingrown hairs, rashes or dry, irritated skin – not to mention that the upkeep and maintenance can be time consuming and over the course of a lifetime, expensive.

In women, unwanted hair is quite often due to hormonal imbalances and medical conditions such as polycystic ovaries, or even the menopause as the woman approaches her later years.
