I remember seeing a documentary where a girl joined a religious group in China and she and her fellow inductees had all their hair removed too!

i can think of other ways to signify the end of immaturity and the beginning of womanhood that don't involve the removal of birth hair.

Kat, of course, no! The description in the question is ridiculously incorrect and irresponsible. The correct one is: remove the fine hair on the face, trim the forehead hair and sideburn. P.S. I happen to know some of my Chinese culture.
