It's been brutal since hitting menopause.

Same here.

It's due to the non-production of estrogen. It kept our hair shiny, our skin soft, and our bones healthy.

True, it's not fair.

It's considered sexy in some cases; I remember Don Johnson on Miami Vice, lol.

It looked good on him though, not the case with all men.

I might qualify as a moustached lady at the circus. I don't want to do anything that hurts nor spend money on something like electrolysis or even waxing. I know your hair has to be long for waxing, definitely. It's a pain to shave but it's cheap and fast.

But I have to do it on my underarms, legs as well as on my fingers and toes! Dark, long hairs growing above the knuckles on my fingers and on my toes in a similar area. Men can get away with not shaving. In 2020 when everything was closed and I didn't go anywhere, I hardly shaved. I waited until I couldn't stand it anymore, feeling like an ape woman.

Now I try to keep up, mainly because it just seems gross....all this dark hair. It grows fast and dark, and they seem to grow in more coarse than before, which is supposed to be a myth. Not for me.
