Amy Adams grew her own "whiskers" for the role of Mother in Nightbitch .

Film shows acceptance of women growing facial hair on screen.

This kind of representation is crucial for those with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) PCOS advocates Harnaam Kaur says representation on screen is crucial to normalising body hair.

There has always been stigma, outrage and sometimes scandal’ around showing women’s body hair on screen.

Many actors, musicians, and celebrities have resisted Hollywood body hair conventions.

The majority of movies still subscribe to the Western ideal of what a woman should look like — which, currently, is largely hairless.

Nightbitch is out now in cinemas.

It is the first film to normalise the realities of women’s bodies on screen.

PCOS is a hormonal condition that affects one in every 10 women and deserves more awareness.

Morman says normalising body hair has the potential to empower all women by breaking down beauty standards.
