I'm curious. Does every female have a mustache? Only some of them are lucky that theirs is less noticable?

No, though most American women have some moustache growth. Women from many Asian backgrounds don't, though those from the Indian sub-continent usually do.

Facial (and also body) hair on women comes about in the same way as on men because of

1) your body being sensitized, before you were even born, to testosterone -- doesn't happen to all girls, but does to many

2) your body producing high levels of testosterone

The growth rate and coarseness of the hair depends on just how much testosterone is circulating in your bloodstream.

The most feminine girls have absolutely no moustache. And for that matter no leg hair either. Facial and body hair is an indication of a degree of masculinity in a girl. The less moustache growth a girl has, the more feminine her hormones are.

You mom is right. Yes, of course your boyfriend is looking at it -- it's a point of interest. Time for you to start shaving.-- some girls develop a moustache, just like boys do. Most guys are OK about girls with, for example, a slight moustache. If you do decide you have to do something, then there isn't a simple answer and there's a lot of misleading "information" around. Facial (and also body) hair on women comes about in the same way as on men because of 1) your body being sensitized, before you were even born, to testosterone -- doesn't happen to all girls, but does to many 2) your body producing high levels of testosterone The growth rate and coarseness of the hair depends on just how much testosterone is circulating in your bloodstream. Steer clear of bleaching -- when someone sees you against the light you'll look as if you have a glowing moustache. Believe me, it shows up far, far worse. As far as removing it is concerned it's worth remembering that * Waxing, plucking, threading, epilating all pull the hair out by the roots and where the growth is hormonally-driven can actually stimulate a dormant follicle into producing more hair quicker. They also distort the root if done repeatedly, leading to hair growing at strange angles. And you've got to let the hair grow to quite a length before you can repeat the exercise. It can also damage the skin and discolor it. Long-term use of waxing also causes bad wrinkles. * Chemical depilatories strong enough to remove the hair are very likely to burn the skin, cause swelling and cause long-term discoloration of the skin. * Laser is also liable to cause burning and discoloration and in any case only works effectively on a dark hair/light skin combination. * Electrolysis is very liable to cause scarring and discoloration of the skin. Which, like it or not, leaves shaving which does not damage the skin and does not cause the hair to grow more or coarser or faster. Best done with a men's-style electric razor, the best of which, for girls and women, are probably those from the men's range of Philips/Norelco razors (Philishave outside the US). Most girls and women who try a men's Philips/Norelco wonder why nobody ever told them about it before.

Our whole bodies is covered with hair. Goose bumps are hair follicles that stick out when you are scared, because it makes the tiny hair all over our bodies rise. Ever heard about being so scared to make your hair rise? Anyhow, some women have bigger and darker hair on the upper lip which shows more than in others. A good lip wax or depilatory cream works fine in most cases.

I am very proud of my mustache. I trim it every other day with my Gillete for women. The best product to use for a lady's mustache is cocoa butter. This keeps it moisturized with less "flyaways". Hope this helps!

OH, well ya! Ya we all do, mine is platinum blond, so no problem, BUT the hair on my breasts, and belly button, leave something to be desired as to color and content. That is what waxing is for!

That's correct, and we all have hairy legs too.
It's only natural, but we are supposed to hate it.
