    Default Ear Hair Singeing

    I was watching a video today of a Turkish barber shaving a guy. After the shave, I noticed him messing around with some fire on a rod or something around the guys ears. I looked it up and found ear hair singeing. It seems that the older I manage to get, the greater my ability to grow hair in my ears. Years ago, I tried removal with fire using a Bic lighter. Yeah, that didn't do so well. I also tried to shave a few hairs off my ear lobe a couple months ago, took about a week for the cut to heal. I'll post one of the videos I found below. I watched it as well as the tutorial it has a link to. It looks relatively safe, well, as safe as putting fire into you ear would be anyway. I was curious, has anyone had this done? I kinda hate that I found this. I know I gotta try it. I mean, hey; what's the worst that could happen!?

    Like the videographer says in that vid, seems like paradise for every man
    I've enjoyed a couple shaves like that in Ankara, and it is simply a pure and utter joy!

    I just fire a Creme Brulee torch in one ear and wait until the flames come out the other. Then I'm done!
