Apparently I have far too much time on my hands these days to be thinking of these mundane things but enquiring minds want to know.

Why oh why is the hair on my legs, upper lip and underarms growing like a forest on steroids while my once beautiful mane of hair has been decimated beyond repair?

Why?

:)

Gah! You mean us newbies not only have losing our hair to look forward to, but more luxurious mustaches and leg hair as well?

Time to invest in some Mach 3's, lol.
