Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
I would like to know if it is o.k. for Amritdhari girls to bleach their facial hair. It seems to be a very controversial topic. I know some that do and some that condem it.

Dear One:
Our bodies are a gift from God. To alter the body is to tell God he got it wrong.
The Sikh Rehit is explicit that Amritdhari Sikhs are NOT to alter their bodies in any way; this would include bleaching any hair on the body. So bleaching facial hair is not permitted.
