The Curse Of The Hairy Girl...

I wouldn't say this was a funny story more of a story that has pretty much got me isolated from all my friends and family.

Like many other sufferers of facial hair I have been cursed with excess hair growth on my neck and side burns and you guessed it I am a girl! Since I started high school I noticed hair growing on my neck quite rapidly, long and wispy.

Waking up every morning just to look at them made me sick to my stomach. I spoke to my mum about it who said "if you are wise you won't think of removing it with wax" although believe me many times it has cross my mind to just throw acid on to my neck to make the hair go away at least the scars will go away but I am too much of a chicken.

I was tormented at school and called a "man" or "circus freak" and I would get harassed by peers on this matter as he knew I can say nothing back.

For 5 years I have had to wear a scarf in order to cover this and bleach it so that it would be "camouflaged" to the naked eye but obviously being Asian you can still see the hair against my skin colour.

Believe me when I say that if I had the money I would most definitely laser treatment but unfortunately coming from a single parent household it has become increasingly difficult for me to do so.

I don't ask for sympathy, but I want to be a voice for all those women out there experiencing this problem and I hope that I will be the winner of this competition as it will well and truly be a life changing experience for me and will open so many doors up for me because after all no one likes an ugly girl.
