How much hair is abnormal

I'm wondering — don't all women have hair on upper lip and face? Do blond, fine hairs on upper lip count as hirsutism? What if you have one dark hair growing from a mole. Does this count? Do normal women not have any hair at all? Or is some hair normal. I'm getting confused about evaluating this because the criteria seems to be that if you have to remove it, it's too much, but almost all the women I know in a quest for hairless beauty ala fashion magazines, remove any hair at all. So I'm just wondering what is normal, and what is hirsutism. No hair, some hair, blond hair, fine hair, 2 black hairs?.... Or are we talking about real, noticeable hair growth that if left unchecked would be unsightly or masculine. Can anyone provide some specifics? Thanks
