Acne sucks.
There I said it. I’m not going to sugarcoat it, although no one deserves to get acne, it’s genetic; inherited. So blame your parents. (Just kidding, they probably suffered it too.) Unfortunately, most of us have had some pimples, and a lot of us have probably had some form of full-blown acne (secret: I’m one of those people). So where the hell does it come from?
Well, you can thank your hair for acne, actually. Yes, hair grows all over your body, even if it’s not noticeable in places like your chest, back, and cheek area (if you’re female, to be specific). But really it’s the oil glands that are attached to the hair follicle deep below the skin surface. And in those aforementioned body areas, the hair has multiple oil glands attached to one hair follicle.
