Your friend may have a condition called hirsutism.

Hirsutism is defined as the excessive growth of thick dark hair in locations where hair growth in women usually is minimal or absent. Such male-pattern growth of terminal body hair usually occurs in androgen-stimulated locations, such as the face, chest, and areolae.

Tell her to ask her doctor about this. It can be treated with hormones.

Altho it is normal for women to have some random hairs in odd areas on their body, I would advise your friend to have her hormone levels checked by a doctor. You didnt give her age, but during menopause, a woman's estrogen levels drop, causing hair to grow on the face, lip, neck and sometimes other areas she normally would not have had it. Estrogen is what keeps us hairless in the areas men tend to have alot of it. We do have testosterone in our bodies, but not enough to overwhelm the estrogen. If this woman is younger, and her hormones are at normal levels, I would just advise to tweeze the hairs so they dont come back for about 6 weeks.

Its not that uncommon. Woman grow hair in places we would rather not and do stuff about it. Its actually kinda embarrassing since having hair in those sort of places is usually considered to be only things that men have problems with. Some of this also depends on your ethnicity since different ones have different amounts of hair for both men and women.

Hopes that helps at all--tell your friend don't worry, she isn't alone.

She can try to use tweezers to remove the hair but tell her to be careful about ingrown hairs once she begins especially with the hair on her breast.

It's not unheard of for a woman to be a bit hairy. She must have a little extra testosterone than the average woman. She might try getting lazer hair removal. Tell her not to shave her face or use those hair removal creams on her face. Not a good idea.
