Thread: Only old fogies read this

just burn'em off !!

I thought your new avatar was you shooting them off.

If they are in my ears, I pluck them. If they are on my
face, I shave them.

The only alternative that I can think of...in terms of
permanent removal...is some sort of lasor treatment.
Lot's of that sort of thing is available...at least in the
States.

Ain't it the s***s getting old?

I like to wash my face in battery acid...that usually works. Then finish off with the alum and a little Pinaud,and it's off to the races !!Yes I know...i'm goin to go somewhere that will involve a handbasket and it aint to gramaws ! Pull zem out I say !!

maybe try going over that bit with a DE then shave as you would. works for me when im shaving tuff bits.

or


tell your wife you need a new razor

"You're going to need a bigger razor..."

From Jaws... Kinda.

Maybe a big sheffield wedge could help? Or you're going to have to hide the tweezers!

I didn't wait for the wife. I grabbed the tweezers myself. Hey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

a sheffield wedge wont do. i think his only option is a custom razor

With age, I notice the hair on my head gets thinner, but hair everywhere else seems to evolve into another species. Ear, nose…yikes.

Maybe a big old wedge?

The problem with plucking, is that women pluck their eyebrows, but that's different type of hair. Plucking face hair can damage the folicle and pores, producing a permanent source of inflammation.

So I'm for cutting it. Maybe just a big sharp wedge razor? or a little bitty one, even a Feather Nape and Neck razor.

For those of us who are getting long in tooth I'm just curious how you handle this situation.

You see you start getting what I'll call these rogue hairs. They come in here and there and they are like hairzilla like 4x the diameter of normal whiskers and even the best razors balk at shaving them. My wife wants to use tweezers to pull them out and now every time I see her with a pair of tweezers I head for the hills.

What do ya'll think?

I have arrived at a solution upon reaching that level of maturity where these phenomena occur: I don't look into mirrors while weraing my glasses. Now while gazing at my visage without benefit of corrective lenses I can honestly say to the chap in the glass, "my what a handsome, clean shaven fellow you are and how lucky you are not to be worried with those bronco bristles."
