Being a perpetually hairy girl in Pakistan is, to say the least, a living nightmare. You cannot just go out wearing your sleeveless Mango tops or the lawn kurtas that you so happily collected during all the sales, whenever you want. Cherry on the top, the horrors including waxing, shaving, getting you eyebrows and upper lips done and what not, never leave your side. However, you eventually learn to deal with your perpetual hairy state.
In order to share your grief, we have prepared a list of some of the struggles that almost every hairy Pakistani girl goes through, during the course of her life.
1. Getting to hear “Kab se plucking nai karwaye ap ne?” every time you go to a parlour.
I promise last week hee tou karwaye thee.
2. When you finally get through the nightmare that is waxing, you hardly get a week to try out all your sleeveless kurtas that you so enthusiastically bought from Khaddi/Sapphire sales. One week, before you start getting all hairy again.
3. You always shy away from getting pedicures because you are just so ashamed of your super hairy feet and hobbit toes. Who gets hair on their toes, I mean?
4. You wax wali aunty is always trying to tell you how shaving or going to the other wax parlors make you more hairy and how you should just be her regular customer.
5. Listening to less hairy girls whine about how they have to spend so much money on waxing or getting their hair plucked.
Bitch please.
6. Getting your brothers or male friends to repeatedly tell you as to how you can easily be passed off as a boy, on account of your abundant facial hair.
“Ye mochon ka muqabla hai tmhara mujh se?”
7. Lahore ki garmi is always a nightmare for you because spontaneously wearing short tights or your sleeveless kurtas is just out of question.
8. Needless to say, going to water parks or swimming is just not an option. You have to find comfort in your own bathroom’s bath tub while listening to all your favorite soothing songs in order to get over your grief.
9. The never ending supply of in grown hair never let you sleep because, oh the itching. You are eternally be like…
10. And oh, the chin hair that grow out every two days. Too bad, they are still not enough to make you come across as a pious Musalman.
11. But despite of all the struggles that you go through every day, you still respect and embrace your body hair confidently (Well, you should).
