I'm 19 and I'm kinda worried because I still don't have any facial hair, like a moustache or beard. Could you tell me why this might be happening?

I've been struggling with pigmentation on my cheeks, and I've been using HH Lite Cream. It's really helped, and the pigmentation has completely disappeared. But I'm worried because whenever I stop using the cream, the spots come back, and there's also this itchy sensation. Why does this happen, and what can I do about it?

-Its great your pigmentation has improved, but HH Lite isnt a long-term solution. Switch to a gentle skincare routine with sunscreen (SPF 30+) daily to prevent reoccurrence, and consult a dermatologist for alternatives.

I'm really worried about something I did while making homemade herbal hair fiber. I accidentally burned wheat and barley in a pan that had a bit of cooking oil in it. After I was done, I learned that burnt oil can release harmful and toxic chemicals. Someone told me it's still safe to use the mixture, but I'm not sure. Could you let me know if it's really okay to use, or should I just throw it away?
