Of course we’ll do that!
But did anyone have this?
What can it be?

My kids are hairy from birth. Pediatrician says it's fine since they have no sign of pubic & underarm or facial hair.

Are you sure it wasn't there till now? Some kids are born with fine hair that becomes noticeable as they get older.

Don’t think so. And why would it suddenly become noticeable at this age? She’s not even close to puberty...

Could it be from sun exposure? After a sunburn I'm much hairier - I figure it's my body's way of trying to protect itself.

Nope. Dd wears long sleeves and dress/tights.

Take her to a pediatric endocrinologist. Not meaning to frighten you, but my cousin's daughter had something very serious in her adrenal glands. BH she is now healthy.
Don't wait. Get it checked out by a specialist.

If it’s suddenly from one day to the next then yes definitely check it out. If it’s just the type that she’s had a normal amount of hair since birth but you don’t like it, I would not worry - very normal, and it can be removed when she’s old enough.
Agree about the hair darkening in the summer. Noticing on my young dd too. She’s not hairy like a monster but a bit of hair on lower arms and legs - always been like that! I was like that too.
