A member asked:
I'm a girl and today i plucked a hair from my chin that was longer than usual and dark and thick, it's happened before, but why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: Random darker hairs often pop up unexpectedly usually on the face or around the ears as we get older. Not sure if there is a reason for it but it is a common issue that is not something you have to worry about. Just pluck it and move on. Will likely come back in the same place so keep an eye out.
