Positively Courageous Bearded Women

Harnaam Kaur Ditched Her Razors and Feels More Feminine

— February 20, 2014 — Lifestyle
Harnaam Kaur is a confident 23 year old female who is putting aside the wax, razors and other forms of hair removal to be exactly how God made her. She says it makes her feel more feminine and confident about her body. Harnaam Kaur has polycystic ovary syndrome, which can cause excessive hair growth. She was 11 years old when she started to grow hair on her chest, face and arms.

Harnaam has dealt with lots of public scrutiny and public taunting throughout her lifetime. She has even received death threats from people over the Internet from strangers. She has decided to boldly get rid of all her hair removal products and be exactly how she feels she is meant to look after being baptized as a Sikh. She even says that “I've learned to love myself for who I am, nothing can shake me now.”

3. Online Bullying Awareness - The increased awareness of online bullying and the negative impact it can have on individuals' mental health presents an opportunity for the technology and social media industries to develop innovative solutions to combat cyberbullying and protect users' well-being.
Industry Implications
