Thread: HNHT Anyone?

I'm introducing a new acronym today (like we don't have enough). A couple of days ago I was going to shave my upper lip and my blade came in contact with a nose hair that was getting a little long. Well, to my surprise, my straight razor cut it clean just like it would with arm hair midway. So there you go, the hanging nose hair test, HNHT. I don't recommend trying this because I imagine some injuries taking place just to see if you can do it. But I was surprised and somewhat excited over this. Just curious if anyone else has ever done this?

Heck yeah. I do this all the time. On purpose. Jam that spike point right up my schnozola! Because I'm bada** like that!

Incidentally, I get frequent nosebleeds. Does anyone happen to have any idea why?

Too funny. Now as a noob, I will admit to cutting my nose with an across the grain pass on the upper lip (not the fools pass, but definitely the PAY ATTENTION PASS)...talk about a control issue! It would have been nice if I had just cut nose hair instead of the nose!

If 'HNHT' does catch on, I'm afraid it will be with a 'highly select few' here.

I actually use my straight to trim the unsightly buggers
and the ones that grow both off of and out of my ears.


No trimmers in my bathroom
I can't be the only one that does this

This thread is making the HHT threads look good.

Just the tip on an angle, inside the nostril I don't go for BBS just a close trim.
The outside of the ear I stretch it tight and shave it,
three to four passes top to bottom following around the radius from my face to back of my head.
The ones growing out of the ears get a treatment with the tip.

I have often thought about using my straight to do this, but they are all to large. My insurance plan doesn't cover cosmetic surgery..... So I use scissors, and a fancy cheap piece of crap nose hair trimmer, but they don't get close enough. I use to use the back side of the Gillette Fusion! and would get BBS, HA!
I wonder if one of those mustache safety razors would be a better option?
Got to love it the HNHT good one str8tlkr!

I just honed up a blade and it passed the HNHT level 5, so I know for fact that puppy is shave ready
