At the age of 11 she began to grow a beard as a result of polycystic ovary syndrome. Despite her best efforts to get rid of it, it grew too quickly to hide by waxing or shaving.
She was bullied at school and in the street because of it. At her lowest ebb, she was frightened to leave the house, self-harming and considering suicide.
Then she was baptized as a Sikh – a religion that forbids the cutting of any body hair. And she gradually accepted that she could be beautiful with a beard.
Well, just look at her now.
She's one of several people featured in #Project60, a portrait series which the organisers think contains the best 60 beards in the world.
Note – this man in a denim jacket is quite possibly the manliest man that ever manned.
Although this guy, who's probably his dad or something, is also extremely manly.
In summary, everyone involved in this competition looks awesome.
Kaur told Barcroft Media: "It’s incredible to be the only bearded woman among all these men. It makes me feel really strong."
