Anonymousanswered(7/4/2012)Most of my friends and I have agreed we always will have at least one nipple hair—it's almost too minor a thing to be conscious about tweezing often enough to get them all, though I agree it's the best method.

Anonymousanswered(11/17/2011)It is very normal to have nipple hair, especially after going through hormonal changes. Years back I started to notice I had a couple strays and I completely freaked out. I learned it wasn't very uncommon, however, if you are concerned I would recommend seeing a doctor just to ease your mind. I ended up tweezing mine and found they didn't grow back for a few months, but of course each individual is different.
Totally agreed--it's very normal. I've experienced that they grow back regularly (and in the same few places), not after a few months. But everyone's different. Sure, you could just not tweeze them and rock them--but let's be honest, why would you do that? Not sure that's going to make you feel more confident or comfortable in your skin!
Anonymousanswered(12/8/2011)I agree that hairs growing in the area surrounding your nipples is totally normal. I tweeze too, but you have to be really gentle, not as aggressive of a yank as when you're doing you're eyebrows. I noticed that the hairs did grow back, and I think a little thicker. You might be happier just leaving the fine hairs there alone!
