Not quite sure what you're asking here.
In the modern world Mediterranean women in general, and that includes Greek women, tend to be somewhat hairier than women of a more Caucasian background. You would expect most to have at least a slight moustache.
There's also a greater willingness amongst many European women to allow natural body and facial hair to show. Few women there are as open about shaving as American women, but most are very much more open about showing facial and body hair. Indeed many men prefer somewhat hairy women because it's reckoned that their higher testosterone levels make them keener on the phyiscal side of a relationship.
If you're referring to ancient greece of 2000 years ago plus, then it's true that there appears to have been a very high incidence of intersex conditions and those intersexes identified as such -- some of the anciient writers refer to groups of "boys, girls and hermaphrodites." If you were including those intersexes as "women" on the ground that they had no obvious testicles, then indeed they tended to be hairier than the average woman.

lol, where did you get this from. Anyways I wouldn't know but if us women do not shave on a daily basis oh, we'd be really hairy women.

Alot of Medetranian women are more hairy than women of different origin. I think it is part of nature for them to be like that due to climate and or living conditions (we're talking Southern Europe/Northern Africa).

I don't think so.
Maybe the are in general darker then northern European women which makes them look more hairy.
But for sure they care much much more about their looks and hygiene then the rest of European women.

It could seem that way because they are darker, like hispanic women.

It's true even today. I dated a Greek gal that had hair on her breasts. Needless to say, we broke up shortly after.
