    Default Loosing all my hair

    Does anyone else have the problem of loosing all your body from practicing honing? 😋

    Loosing all your body? Wow, that's drastic. I'd say stop right now.

    Seriously though, I have very little arm hair, so I test my razors on my leg hair, and given there's not a lot of hair there either, I do at times have to use the other leg...

    Ok I found the perfect hair to use so I don't loose all mine. I just cut a few pieces out of a horse hair shaving brush I have. It works very good.

    Yup,
    a common affliction amongst those new to honing.
    I still suffer from it when I run through a batch to clean up and hone

    I had hernia surgery 6 weeks ago and when the nurse was putting in my IV in my left hand she asked why the hair was shaved off my wrist area.
    I had to explain honing mange to her which somewhat surprised her.

    Apparently I was bred to survive the arctic wilderness with a lustrous coat of body hair. While I do suffer the mange, I have plenty of stock to choose from, much to the distress of my wife. I just shrug when I hear "Where did all this hair come from - I just cleaned this!?"
    I love living in the past...

    As a noob I brought 14 razors from ebay in quick succession. Back of both hands, inside of both fore arms were bald. My arm and leg hair thinned out due to tree topping. Still recovering.
