Yar.

I believe it grows thicker during pregnancy too.
yep, all girls will have it unless they remove it. its usually quite light and barely noticeable, although mine is quite dark by the time it reaches my belly button.
Best advice is probably just to leave it, or if you have to do something, bleach it (try Jolen cream). Removing hair only leads to it growing back more quickly, and thicker, and means that you're forced into a cycle of having to remove it more often!
I have one of them :smile: its kinda cute, like the snail-trails that men have. But anyhoo. Dont shave/tweeze it. If you want permanent removal try waxing it, as the hairs take ages to grow back and will get lighter and weaker, or bleach it so you don't notice it.
I have it :smile:

I don't have it, or not quite like that. It definitely doesn't start at my boobs, it's a tiiiny very blonde barely noticable strip in the middle of my, err, well between my chest and belly. :p: It stops quite a bit above it as well. Didn't think people had it that much.
My bf talks about it all the time, his constant complaining is driving me mad lol!Its not a big deal to me...hardly noticable!

waxing it is more effective than tweezing
Yikes...a tad painful though!
It's VERY normal. I thought this thread was going to be far more exciting from the title! :biggrin:
I don't have that but sounds like it is probably a normal thing

hey every1 thanx 4 ur replies figuring it is probz normal tho sum say itz dodgy bt most ppl agree itz half normal so thanx every1 x :smile:
Just bleach it, don't pluck it again whatever you do! You'll make it grow back even worse, and it might be sore/itchy for you :frown:

I think girls with dark hair are more prone to it, do you have dark hair?
I've never heard of it, but judging by this thread it seems to be normal, so I wouldn't worry!
that sounds normal.

i have hair in weird places too, like running down the insides of my thighs from my pubes (it's really ewww so i shave it all off!)
Yes, i get it. Its annoying isn't it?

Its true that it does get thicker during pregnancy
i want one :frown:

Hehe!! :biggrin:
i have a strip of hair that runs down my tummy but not from between my boobs. i think that's just a hairy chest...or.. you've got a longer strip :dontknow:
