It's cliche perhaps, but everyone's different - that is the case for personalities, and it is certainly the case for our bodies.
You may not believe it, and it probably doesn't help you even if I told you, but 99% of the people around you are self-conscious as hell about their bodies, and pretty much everybody have parts of their bodies which they dislike, parts, which they think are "not normal". It's not because there are anything wrong with them of course - it's usually because certain parts of their bodies do not conform to their own idealistic image of perfection.
Remember that old saying "beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder"? Your boyfriend thinks you are beautiful and loves you for it. Bath yourself in that love and try and see yourself with his eyes.
Now I'm not saying you shouldn't do anything about your hair, that you should grow a beard and start eating doggy treats for a shiny coat or anything like that. I am however saying you should try to worry less about your body. The worrying will never stop and it will get you nowhere. You could get laser or chemical treatments to stop the hairs from growing, but then what? You'll start comparing your skin to some girl in a magazine, or your butt to that dancer on TV. You'll start worrying about your boobs, thinking about breast reduction, or maybe then it'd be a tummy tuck, or maybe a touch up on your nose, or chins, or god knows what.
I hate how I look is this normal
