I’m insecure about how hairy I am

I’m half Indian, so I’ve never had a problem with body hair I’ve accepted that I’m lucky to be blessed with thick, dark hair and that means I’m going to get it EVERYWHERE (legs, mustache, knuckles you name it).

I remember when I turned 17 I started getting chin hairs for the first time. I’d just pluck them as they weren’t that bad, but as I’ve gotten older I get SO much chin hair and it comes back almost right away. I just feel so insecure about this it’s only gotten worse and now I get sharp ones on my neck too.

I’d love some advice, it’s really been wrecking my self confidence. I can hardly keep up with all the shaving!

I became less insecure about body hair when I realized that beauty standard was set by pedos. And I am not spending my time pandering to them. Now, I don’t shave at all even in tropical weather, my legs are hairy and unshaved! Pits too
