A complex interplay of genetics and hormones decides the type, amount, and even how hair grows. A few random hairs on the chin and neck popping up along with peach fuzz is routine and often related to hormonal changes our body cycles through over our lifetime. Sometimes, chin or neck hair is more than irritating. It might be a sign of an underlying medical condition. Let’s take a closer look at why we get chin and neck hair and the best way to handle it. What causes chin hair in women? Typically, hair grows from the root or hair follicle just under the skin. There are two types of hair follicles: vellus hair is fine hair, like fuzz is fine hair, like fuzz terminal hair follicles are longer, thicker, and deeper rooted Androgen (testosterone), commonly known as the male sex hormone, plays a major role in hair growth. Both men and women produce testosterone; women just have lower amounts. Testosterone changes vellus hair into terminal hair by activating receptors in hair follicles. This is totally normal and happens to everyone, especially during puberty. In females, hair growth, including facial hair is impacted by distinct hormonal phases. Starting with puberty, during pregnancy, and through menopause, shifts in hormone levels change hair growth. What about those random few hairs?

Research shows different racial groups can have different levels of androgen and resulting body and facial hair.

This can result in a few random long hairs in unexpected locations like the neck. For most people these random hairs are normal.

It’s more common in people of South Asian, Mediterranean, or Middle Eastern descent. The difference between normal facial hair and hirsutism is the color, density, and texture of the hair. Hair is coarser, thicker and darker. This can be due to virilization, or excess production of androgens. Sudden changes in facial hair patterns might mean your body is sending a sign something has changed. It can signal a hormonal imbalance caused by a medical condition or a side effect of medications.
