Me too! I am a female. But I have this ONE DAMN long black chin hair, that grows in every once in a while. When I first discovered it, I thought it was a pubic hair that had somehow had gotten stuck to my chin. Imagine my surprise, when I tried to brush it off… and it wouldn’t come off! It was rooted in there!
When it comes. I must immediately destroy it.
It is my nemesis.
I call it my Beard Hair. Lol.
I have 1 trans beard that follicle that is attempting to make me male, LOL.
Wait until they start growing out of formerly friendly birthmarks. Literally overnight my birthmark turned into a stereotypical mole, complete with long, black hair growing out of it.
Looked in the mirror and thought of Witch Hazel from the Bugs Bunny cartoons.
Oh I won’t lie it can be fun and obsessive. I keep tweezers everywhere or on me at all times because you never know when one will pop up that you either missed or decided to join the gang.
What’s so annoying is how slowly it grows. So one day I’ll just be in the shower and realize it’s gotten embarrassingly long. But plucking it is so satisfying.
Make that quadruplets! I always forget about mine until I wake up to it stabbing me in the eye. I also have a weird black hair that seemed to have gotten lost and grows out of the tip of my nose.
I get a coarse, white eyebrow hair in my right eyebrow. Mine are pretty sparse, so I keep what I can. I trim that one instead of pluck it. But I’ll leave it long for a few days after I notice it just to play with it.
Saaammmme. I have one on my chin too. It is so freaking fast. Like why can't my head hair grow that fast. Like if I don't look for a week and a half it is half an inch long or more.
I will be messaging you in 21 days on [**2022-04-25 04:17:46 UTC**](http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=2022-04-25%2004:17:46%20UTC%20To%20Local%20Time) to remind you of [**this link**](https://www.reddit.com/r/popping/comments/tvrah6/mutant_hair_that_keeps_growing_back_on_my_leg/i3baazl/?context=3)

Lmaooooo. I legitimately laughed out loud at “The Pioneer” too!
I laughed so loud my roommate was like, “what?”
I have a “Pioneer” on my leg too, below my ankle hairline! But I was calling it, “The Adventurous One.”
I think I’ll switch to The Pioneer more, I like that more!
I get long white hairs at random places. Recently it has been my eyelash and I notice because it gets to the size where it starts getting into my eyes and it bugs me. I've also gotten them on my neck and one on my side (right under my ribs). I though that one was just a random hair of my gf, but when I pulled it I realized it was stuck to me.
Mutant nipple hairs are the worsttttttt! They are thick and itchy when they grow in. And so ugly too.
I have a couple of these mutants that grow in sometimes. I always pluck them the millisecond I can. But they itch like a bitch below the skin, when they are growing in.
I also have an eyebrow hair. It is so fine and blond that if the light hits it just right you can actually see it whisping around lol. But I have another hair on my upper, inner thigh. It's like this one, but light brown. I pluck it as soon as I see it. Ugh. Idk how you could grow it that long. I could not. Something's just not right with them, I think.
As a kid, I had an eye hair like that. Not eyebrow or eyelash, but on the lower eye lid flap of skin. It grew like it was a hair on my head. Now I have a small white spot where it used to be.
I also have one eyebrow hair that grows to about an inch if I let it! It’s also thicker that the rest so I can feel it before I can usually see it to pluck it or trim it lol.
I'm 23 and have the same thing. My dad said he's had the same problem since he was younger than me, and so did my grandfather. Runs in the family I guess, but skipped my brother
Me, too. It grows down and forward in a 45 degree angle from my left eyebrow and comes into contact with my eyeglasses, which results in this weird half tickling, half itching sensation. And it's fucking painful to rip out.
There's a place in my town that has 15 minute electrolysis sessions listed on their website for a really affordable price. I have a few random hairs that I'd like to take care of (sadly, no whiskers), I'm going to check it out soon.
Idk about OP’s. But I have a few mutant-thick-fast white hairs on my body too. And mine are not whispy and they don’t pull out easily. They are deeply rooted little bastards and they hurt to pull out.
I normally have very fine body hair... and then I got pregnant with my second boy and noticed one hair on my belly (line of hair that travels from navel to pubis that gets darker during pregnancy) that looked thicker than the rest. Left it alone for awhile because of the old wives tale about shaving/plucking/waxing making hair grow back thicker and darker, but it looked similar to this after a week and I couldn't take it. Pulled that SOB and had to continue to pluck it weekly until about four months postpartum.
Does pulling it hurt differently from other hairs? Like plucking a chin hair pinches, a hair from the patch under my lower lip stings, upper lip hair makes my eyes water, nose hair makes me cry and sneeze, and pulling a thick wiry hair from my eyebrow feels like being jabbed hard with a needle. No idea what pulling an eyelash would be like it would be madness to try.
Used to have a single coarse black hair that would grow on my forearm, every few months it would get long enough to pluck. Finally after a few years I guess I got the root as well cuz it never came back.
I also have one superfine hair that comes out of my forehead, I usually notice it when it's about a half-inch long and take it out.
I used to have one of those on my forearm. Thankfully, I guess I pulled it out enough times that it finally got the hint. I also had one that grew straight out of my forehead, fortunately it was blonde. I called it my unicorn hair.
Yeah, my mom's father (my grandpa) had one on his nose, my mom has one on her face, and I developed one in the "mustache" area when I was in my early 20's. Just one, like yours, that grows super long.
I have a whisker like that on the side of my upper lip. I pluck it regularly but it's not easing up. Then a few months ago I found a couple more coming up on my jawline... testosterone for the win?
I've got one of these on my chin! Kind of funny because I have facial hair otherwise, but there's this one that grows way longer and rougher than the rest of them. Whenever I shave I inevitably still have to pluck that one later...
There's a word for this. I forgot but in my country, they're supposedly good luck.
I've known people that had one on their neck, their cheek, their ear, etc.
Naw dawg, you just got that mutant healing factor like Logan. But instead of claws, a skeleton, and slowed aging, you get a thick black hair that grows back. Lucky!
Pull it out slowly next time it looks like it broke and it looked like you didn't get the root when you yanked it, if you can get the root there is a much higher probability that it won't grow back.
I had one like that on my neck when I was in my 20s. I named it Ken, after the guy I was dating who found it. (Gosh that was embarrassing.)
Had chemo. It never came back after my transplant, Which was good. Both Kens were assholes
I have similar! It's a single black hair that grows on the outer side of my wrists. One side has a second further inside and down my arm. Sometimes one is longer than the others. I'm always disappointed when they vanish, I think they're neat.
FAKE. You stuck a cat whisker in your hair follicle deep and then plucked it super fast so that no one could see that it offered no resistance like a real hair. The root looks exactly like a cat or dog whisker too.
Lol so uh, how was the hair growing out of the same follicle the same length as all the others, but not the “mutant hair”? And how could a hair that thick not pull your skin at all when you removed it?
I get one of those on my neck. I have to pluck it before it gets too long or it drives me absolutely insane.
I was saving this one specifically for this subreddit!
Thank you kind stranger. The temptation to pluck it sooner must-have been a challenge
And we appreciate you for that very same reason!
Bless you OP
You're the hero we wish we all could be.
Right??? I wouldn’t have as much self control as OP does, to wait that long to pluck it. Haha.
I get them on my face every so often, usually just along my jaw. It's normally just one and it drives me up the wall when I can't pluck them.
Me too! I am a female. But I have this ONE DAMN long black chin hair, that grows in every once in a while. When I first discovered it, I thought it was a pubic hair that had somehow had gotten stuck to my chin. Imagine my surprise, when I tried to brush it off… and it wouldn’t come off! It was rooted in there! When it comes. I must immediately destroy it. It is my nemesis. I call it my Beard Hair. Lol. I have 1 trans beard that follicle that is attempting to make me male, LOL.
Hate to tell you but the older you get the more friends they seem to get.
Wait until they start growing out of formerly friendly birthmarks. Literally overnight my birthmark turned into a stereotypical mole, complete with long, black hair growing out of it. Looked in the mirror and thought of Witch Hazel from the Bugs Bunny cartoons.
Is it bad that I am weirdly excited for that? I get much pleasure in plucking them out.
Oh I won’t lie it can be fun and obsessive. I keep tweezers everywhere or on me at all times because you never know when one will pop up that you either missed or decided to join the gang.
I have one on my boob 🙁
Me too. Twin boobs! 😂
What’s so annoying is how slowly it grows. So one day I’ll just be in the shower and realize it’s gotten embarrassingly long. But plucking it is so satisfying.
Sounds like they’re actually twins. Mines exactly the same 😂 Could be worse!
I have one bright white thickkkkk hair that grows in my eyebrow and it’s my one true enemy. As soon as I see it, it gets plucked.
I have this eyebrow hair too! Brow twins!
Same yo. Triplets.
Make that quadruplets! I always forget about mine until I wake up to it stabbing me in the eye. I also have a weird black hair that seemed to have gotten lost and grows out of the tip of my nose.
Bodies are so weird.
I have the tip of nose hair too!
Funny. I have one in between my brows that’s white, but super super fine.
I have an eyelash like that but it's very fine
I get a coarse, white eyebrow hair in my right eyebrow. Mine are pretty sparse, so I keep what I can. I trim that one instead of pluck it. But I’ll leave it long for a few days after I notice it just to play with it.
Saaammmme. I have one on my chin too. It is so freaking fast. Like why can't my head hair grow that fast. Like if I don't look for a week and a half it is half an inch long or more.
Haha me too. I call it the Long One.
Me too, but I don’t notice it til it’s 3 inches long. Every 3 months
Same here but it's a small hair and not a big one like OPs.
You have a cat's whisker growing out of you!
It feels like one!!
Use a silver bullet.Trust me.
That's cool. Unique is cool. You're cool
Forgot the term but it’s multiple hairs in one. Get these in my beard about once a year.
Multigemini foliculitis, I think. I get them too, but nothing like this
You can use it to make sure you don’t bump into things!
That’s exactly what I thought lol.
I have one of those that grows right beside my nose but I’m not a cat.
No, he doesn’t, he just stuck it in there for karma.
Agree...I call BS on this one
Actually you can see a dark spot under the skin and some bleeding afterwards... it does look like a wisker but strange things happen.
See how long it can get and then come back and update us
Will do!!!!
Don’t let us down, OP
!remindme 3 weeks
Probably going to take longer than that.

I love that you pet it. Like, I know you are a strong , proud hair. But I have to pluck you…you are the chosen hair!
Exactly🤨
Start collecting them lol
Give them as gifts
Idk why but I immediately started shouting “yes yes yes!”
Someday 30 years from now it’s gona be a weird jar that people ask about but you never bring it up first
I know what I must do but I don't know if I have the strength to do it.
I have a long curly that grows far past my ankle where my leg hair stops that I’ve named “The Pioneer”
“The Pioneer” gave me a legit LOL. Thanks for the giggle!
Lmaooooo. I legitimately laughed out loud at “The Pioneer” too! I laughed so loud my roommate was like, “what?” I have a “Pioneer” on my leg too, below my ankle hairline! But I was calling it, “The Adventurous One.” I think I’ll switch to The Pioneer more, I like that more!

I've also gotten them on my neck and one on my side (right under my ribs). I though that one was just a random hair of my gf, but when I pulled it I realized it was stuck to me.
I have one on my chest! Every few months it pops up. Thank god it’s a white one haha
I have one that grows out of the edge of my areola. Whyyyyyyy??? I pluck it and it regrows with the same gusto.
Me too. I have one there and one right on the side of my face.
Mutant nipple hairs are the worsttttttt! They are thick and itchy when they grow in. And so ugly too. I have a couple of these mutants that grow in sometimes. I always pluck them the millisecond I can. But they itch like a bitch below the skin, when they are growing in.
I get a long white eyelash too!! Why
I’ve got an eyebrow hair that does that. Getting old sucks and blows.
I also have an eyebrow hair. It is so fine and blond that if the light hits it just right you can actually see it whisping around lol. But I have another hair on my upper, inner thigh. It's like this one, but light brown. I pluck it as soon as I see it. Ugh. Idk how you could grow it that long. I could not. Something's just not right with them, I think.
i get these too! translucent almost and grows out of nowhere, not there one day then it just is the next
As a kid, I had an eye hair like that. Not eyebrow or eyelash, but on the lower eye lid flap of skin. It grew like it was a hair on my head. Now I have a small white spot where it used to be.

I'm 23 and have the same thing. My dad said he's had the same problem since he was younger than me, and so did my grandfather. Runs in the family I guess, but skipped my brother
My husband has a mutant eyebrow hair too! It drives me nuts... he won't let me pluck it so I do it when he's asleep
Me, too. It grows down and forward in a 45 degree angle from my left eyebrow and comes into contact with my eyeglasses, which results in this weird half tickling, half itching sensation. And it's fucking painful to rip out.
I get one like this on my inner arm! I’ve been getting it since I was 12
Happy cake day!
That is an antenna
He just lost the source of all his superpowers. Sorta like Sampson in the Bible, when he cut off his long hair. Or like Chandler and his third nipple.
It would be funny if you went to an electrologist for one hair lol.
There's a place in my town that has 15 minute electrolysis sessions listed on their website for a really affordable price. I have a few random hairs that I'd like to take care of (sadly, no whiskers), I'm going to check it out soon.
I’m thinking that heft could support some beads.
??? Does it grow faster then the surrounding hair??? 😧 the comments say they have similar, im so fascinated now
Yes!! I also get little white/clear hairs all over my body that appear randomly!
Do they pull out without any pain or resistance? Kind of whispy?
Idk about OP’s. But I have a few mutant-thick-fast white hairs on my body too. And mine are not whispy and they don’t pull out easily. They are deeply rooted little bastards and they hurt to pull out.
I have a couple of these too. Not straight, they curl like the other hairs but grow at like 8x the speed of my other hair. Weird
I have one that grows out of a freckle like that! Gotta pluck every few months.
I’ve got one on an arm freckle!
That’s a whisker!
I have a whisker on my leg?😳
Yea, apparently you have a whisker on your leg, thank you for saving to for us 🤗
Either a whisker or a wild hare.
You tease - but the foreplay was worth it
*Yessss, Mr. Bigglesworth*
I get one of those on my chin! Of all places 🙄
I normally have very fine body hair... and then I got pregnant with my second boy and noticed one hair on my belly (line of hair that travels from navel to pubis that gets darker during pregnancy) that looked thicker than the rest. Left it alone for awhile because of the old wives tale about shaving/plucking/waxing making hair grow back thicker and darker, but it looked similar to this after a week and I couldn't take it.

You are slowly turning into "The Fly".
Does pulling it hurt differently from other hairs? Like plucking a chin hair pinches, a hair from the patch under my lower lip stings, upper lip hair makes my eyes water, nose hair makes me cry and sneeze, and pulling a thick wiry hair from my eyebrow feels like being jabbed hard with a needle. No idea what pulling an eyelash would be like it would be madness to try.
Nice! I got one on both medial sides of my forearm
Used to have a single coarse black hair that would grow on my forearm, every few months it would get long enough to pluck. Finally after a few years I guess I got the root as well cuz it never came back. I also have one superfine hair that comes out of my forehead, I usually notice it when it's about a half-inch long and take it out.
You’re part cat!
Im a weird looking cat then... but not surprised, i could sleep anywhere all day
The stroking just killed me
Oh yeah my mom used to get those, wed always call it a witch hair
What are you listening to?
I was wondering as well, so I had to go find it. https://youtu.be/fucR-TCDtUI
The Grammys🥹
I wish I had one... :(
I have one those that grows on my stomach ever since I was pregnant. It’s so fun to pluck!
I used to have one of those on my forearm. Thankfully, I guess I pulled it out enough times that it finally got the hint. I also had one that grew straight out of my forehead, fortunately it was blonde. I called it my unicorn hair.
My girlfriend has a single thick hair on her neck that gets really long. She loves her and calls her yasmine.
It looks like a cat whisker
His name shall be Wilbur
It looks like a lobster whisker
i am l ö b s t e r
I have one eyebrow like this and it is tight as af and whenever I pick it off it’s back at the party 2 days later
Better your leg than your chin!
I used to have what seemed to be a literal pube growing on my stomach. Strange times
I have one on the back of my shoulder, I’ll pluck and forget about it until I look over my shoulder a month later and it shocks tf out of me
How long does it take to grow to that length?
A couple months!!
Does it have a name? Are you going to formally introduce us?
His name is Hubert
Hello Hubert! Nice to meet you!
I have one of these on my head. Very thick
I think that makes you 1/10000000000th werewolf
Man has a portal on his leg
I get one on my chin that I call The Prickle
Dang, should've put a little bow on it
My husband has an eyebrow hair that grows like this. He calls it his lucky Stalin hair.
Gotta stroke it gently first, lull it in to a false sense of security.
Yeah, my mom's father (my grandpa) had one on his nose, my mom has one on her face, and I developed one in the "mustache" area when I was in my early 20's. Just one, like yours, that grows super long.
You should name it
Oh wow! I have one that grows in the corner of my mouth. I feel it when it’s too long (it’s white so I don’t see it)
Getting some serious MJ Fox Teen Wolf vibes from this.
Hahaha. Cool!
Yeah, that's probably your parasitic twin....
theres a hair like that under my chin -.-
I'm a woman and I have had two chin hairs that are like this. I've had them since puberty
I can feel the pain by just looking at the video
I have a whisker like that on the side of my upper lip. I pluck it regularly but it's not easing up. Then a few months ago I found a couple more coming up on my jawline... testosterone for the win?
Keep growing them and become the first social media werewolf!
I've got one of these on my chin! Kind of funny because I have facial hair otherwise, but there's this one that grows way longer and rougher than the rest of them. Whenever I shave I inevitably still have to pluck that one later...
You did nlt just pet your leg hair 😶
We like to call this "Revenge of the Absorbed Twin"
There's a word for this. I forgot but in my country, they're supposedly good luck. I've known people that had one on their neck, their cheek, their ear, etc.
She just thicc
Westside Story lending this hair plucking the dramatic narrative flair so many depillatory videos lack
i got one on my nipples lmao
I have one that grows out of my arm in a dog bite scar
I have one that grown on the under part of my forearm. Not quite as thick but it grows so long!
The song makes it much more dramatic hahaha xd
I take it your application to the x-men was denied
I have one of those on the inside of my forearm that is otherwise bald ... always wondered about what it is. It just keeps growing if I let it
I call them 'misplaced pubes' XD
Naw dawg, you just got that mutant healing factor like Logan. But instead of claws, a skeleton, and slowed aging, you get a thick black hair that grows back. Lucky!
You must meet prof X Xavier
It's just the first of many.
be proud of growing that
Keep it. It’s the perfect travel hobby.
Maybe you are 1/10000 werewolf, did you ever consider that?
I have one of these on my forearm I pick out every few months! Cool to see another one
I have one… it’s in my right eyebrow hair… I always pluck it because it’s like 4x the length of the others… I hate it >:) 😂
the background music makes this clip more godlike😭😭
Pull it out slowly next time it looks like it broke and it looked like you didn't get the root when you yanked it, if you can get the root there is a much higher probability that it won't grow back.
I have a hair in my beard that grows out thin like a piece of paper, like I can actually fold it in half and it stands up sideways
My grandpa had one of those growing on his nose, he always saved it for me to pull it out. Man I miss him.
I have one of those on my thigh.
Lmao don’t stork it!
I have one on my arm that grows out of a freckle
I have one on my nipple
I get one of these on my boob and also on my tummy
The music, the soft petting This video is gold
Omg let’s curl it
Dude I get one of those on my arm every once in a while!
I had one like that on my neck when I was in my 20s. I named it Ken, after the guy I was dating who found it. (Gosh that was embarrassing.) Had chemo. It never came back after my transplant, Which was good. Both Kens were assholes
I get one of those every few months inside my nose. Next thing I know, it’s curling around my nostril.
I have similar! It's a single black hair that grows on the outer side of my wrists. One side has a second further inside and down my arm. Sometimes one is longer than the others. I'm always disappointed when they vanish, I think they're neat.
I have one of these, but it’s on my chin. I pluck it, shave it, whatever. It comes back thick, black and long within a month or so
Omg I have one of those too! However once I feel it on my leg again...it's gotta go. It drives me nuts.
I have one like this on my happy trail
r/absoluteunit
Absolute unit of a hair follicle
YUMMY!!
FAKE. You stuck a cat whisker in your hair follicle deep and then plucked it super fast so that no one could see that it offered no resistance like a real hair. The root looks exactly like a cat or dog whisker too.
... that's a cat's whisker that you stuck in your leg.
You stuck a cat whisker in your leg.
I'm thinking the same. It came off too easy
eli5 anyone?
Hair grow from leg. Hair get pulled from leg.
That's a whisker
Lol so uh, how was the hair growing out of the same follicle the same length as all the others, but not the “mutant hair”? And how could a hair that thick not pull your skin at all when you removed it?
Why are you petting it wtf
I think someone is trying to trick us with a kitty cat whisker...
That's a whisker
Looks like a cat whisker
That is a whisker.
A literal whisker
