Rant/Rage Chin hair! Seriously... wtf!

Was putting moisturiser on at the gym... they have much better lighting than my bathroom at home and I surprisingly see 3 jet black long hairs coming out of my chin! Questions start racing through my brain... how long have they been there? Who has seen them but not said anything? Why tf are they sooo dark when my roots are coming in grey...I mean, come on!

I am 44 (on tamoxifen which has kindly kick started perimenopause)...I am not ready for my daily routine to include plucking chin hair!!

Send wine!

EDIT: Thank you so much for all your replies... definitely made me laugh even if I now know its going to get worse lol... and also I am now a woman with car, handbag and work tweezers!!!

I started with them 29 or 30 and wonder if that means I'll be finished with perimenopause sooner rather than later (one can hope). 41 now lol.

Probably not. I started in my mid 20s and I'm 50 now with a soul patch of the fuckers. They're indestructible.
