Kerala woman expresses love for her moustache, says 'can't live without it'

A woman from Kerala’s Kannur district has been showing off her moustache for many years with great pride. And she has no plans of getting rid of it dispite often being told to do so.

The 35-year-old, identified as Shyja, unlike many other women, decided to grow the hair on her upper lips. The thin hair soon grew into a visible moustache that delighted her. “I can't imagine living without it now. When the Covid pandemic started, I disliked wearing a mask all the time because it covered my face,” Shyja was quoted as saying by BBC.

As maintained by Shyja, she does not want to make a statement by keeping the moustache but just wants to live life the way she wants. “I just do what I like. If I had two lives, maybe I'd live one for others,” she said.

Her moustache has now become a part of her life which she maintains with no regret. She told Onmanorama that people would often make fun of her because to her looks. But, Shyja did not get rid of to because she is in love with it.

According to Shyja, even her husband or family members do not object to her moustache and that she does not get bothered with what others say.

The 35-year-old woman had a hysterectomy surgery five years back, the report added. In total, she has gone through six surgeries over a decade.

One of Shyja’s surgeries was carried out to remove cysts from her ovary while she got a lump removed from her breast.

These health complications only strengthened Shyja and her belief that she should live life on her own terms. Shyja emphasized that she has built enough confidence and now wants her daughter to take in this attitude from her, the report added.
