What do you mean "run out of nasal hair" Mikael? I don't care if it looks like the entire follicle with a plug of skin, when I pull mine out, they just keep on coming back

The NHT (nasal hair test) - advantages are that the hair is available regardless of whether you have head hair or not. It is also very firm and gives a consistent result. You can always tell which end has the follicle - there is a little peice of skin attached. A word of warning - if you use this method, wait until your eyes stop watering before you go to the blade - the sting from collecting the sample is as nothing compared to losing the end of your finger.

My second experiment was with cat whiskers - the CWHT. To harvest the whisker you need to pet the cat until it is purring happily on your lap - then grab a whisker and throw the cat off your lap before he has a chance to dig his claws into your leg. The advantages are that the whisker stands proud unlike a droopy hair and also gives a consistent resuly. The disadvantage is that, afterwards, your cat will arch it's back and hiss at you if you get within 20 yards.

My third experiment I will refer to as the FPHT - I will not spell this out because there may be some junior members reading this post - suffice it to say that that the F stands for female. I have not yet tried this test but I think the pros and cons are as follows:

For - the hair is considerably longer than nasal hair.
Against - my wife thinks I'm already obsessed with 'this honing lark' as she calls it, therefore any attemot to obtain a sample will just raise her suspicions even more.
For - the cat might make friends again if he smells fish on your fingers.

I hope this proves useful in the never ending search for the perfect shave.

Yours fraternally, Rob

Is this your cat?

Guess this thread should be tagged with a "Warning may contain humor!"

LOL! this will have me grinning the rest of the day. At least there wasn't a Butt Hair Test.
