Many men develop facial hair in the later years of puberty, approximately between 15-18 years old. This can vary, however, and males as young as 11 have been known to develop facial hair that require routine shaving. Further, many women also have some facial hair, especially after menopause, though typically much less than men.

Body hair in new places is something you can count on — again; it is hormones in action. You may want to start shaving some places where body hair grows, but whether you do is up to you. Some guys who grow facial hair like to let it develop into a mustache and beard.

When you are shaving your face, go slowly. These are tricky areas of your body with lots of curves and angles, and it is easy to cut yourself if you move too fast. An adult or older sibling can be a big help when you are learning to shave. Do not be afraid to ask for tips.

Girls should avoid shaving their faces because the stubble that grows back will look prickly and thicker, forcing you to shave repeatedly; if you are worried about hairs on your upper lip, step back from the mirror and you may see that the hair everyone really sees is probably not as bad as you think.

If you do decide you want to get rid of unwanted facial hair, research the options and ask an adult or older sibling for advice. Moreover, some new oil-free facial moisturizers on the market contain substances to make facial hair softer and less visible. You may want to try one before you opt for bleaching or hair removal. In the rare case where a girl's facial hair growth is enough to cause anxiety, a dermatologist or skin specialist can use permanent removal techniques such as electrolysis.
