Yeah, when I was a kid, I named my chest hairs alphabetically as they appeared. :w

The hairs in my ears are not extended the same courtesy. :mad:

I can tell you this much at least, a quick blast from a self igniting propane torch is not the quick fix solution it sounds to be

Well, I've no doubt that would at least slow the hairs down for a while!

That reminds me of an old video I saw posted on here a while ago - a Turkish barber shave with flaming baton to finish up. I'll see if I can find it...

There it is! Some way into that video I think a flaming baton makes an appearance about the ear-al area!

Another thought - I have, and I know others have as well, a tiny little straight used for slicing corns. I gave up on trying to get it really sharp, but I bet it could be done well enough to get into the old ear hairs. I'll see if I can find the pic of mine...

There it is. Maybe you could find one like that, hone it up, and use it for the hair that dare not mention its name?

I use a Michael Motokata trimmer.

After reading UKaskmen reviews, his trimmer came up trumps.

It actually has a suction mechanism which sucks the hairs into the cutting area and I absolutely wouldn't do without it.

I use my straight to shave the "fuzz" off the outer edge of my ear. I accidentally sliced my ear the first time, but no problems now.

glad you healed without incident. I'll try it as a test of skill.
