Ear Hair - Exclusive thread for old bastards

[Herkmeister]

How in the hell do you gents rid yourselves of this nuisance?

I try grabbing the damn things and pulling. I love it when I get one, but frankly I need a new plan.

Use a wide rubber band between your thumb and index finger. It’s like a giant tweezers.

This works also

 

[Formerly Rockymtnole]

Tweezers.
I remember to check every week or so but can’t see well enough to pull them out. So then I need to track down reading glasses, which ticks me off even more.

Late 40s seems to be the beginning of the end...

 

[Obviously Oblivious]

I use my son's electric razor. If you tell him so, I'll deny it.

R & B has the correct answer! Nose, ears, eye brows, & probably would work on the pubes if you are inclined to landscape down there!

 

[NoleATL]

A few weeks back someone here said they have their ears waxed once a month. I use this and it does a good job:

Amazon product ASIN B000FYVOJC

That thing would die a valiant death if I tried landscaping down there.

Sumbitches are hard to get ahold of.

Tweezers mostly. I don't think I have a lot (which means I'm probably kidding myself), but the ones I do have bother the crap out of me. Lady who cuts my hair started trimming my eyebrows a year or so ago and that was troubling. Last night for the first time she ran her clippers over my ear lobes, which must mean I am officially old.

 

[DFSNOLE]

I was shocked the first time my barber hit my ears with the trimmer. Now I encourage it. I just try to pluck them out with my fingers between visits.

 

[SSG T]

I just use my clippers when I cut my hair. I can get the edge in enough to trim them without cutting up my ear.

 

[McLovin32]

OP’s wife takes care of mine for me.

 

[joelbc1]

My barberette trims mine...she won’t touch my nose hair, though.

 

[Chillyhoff]

Tweezers and a tri-fold mirror

. I cry like a baby plucking nose hairs. Awful

It's hard not to. Your eyes immediately start to water.

Buy an electronic clipper...once a month, barely any discomfort.

Same here. Trims eyebrows, and ears but not the nose.

 

[runkpanole]

Straight razor. Also make sure it is done when I get my hair cut.

 

[Breastman]

Those Panasonic hair trimmers are life changers.

Unfortunately, I've had two that have died in the first 3 months. They aren't the best manufactured product but great while they last.

Straight razor? That's brave.

Haha...this!

Sorry, not straight. I use the cartridge.

 

[Joes Place]

Sorry, not straight. I use the cartridge.

I find those are quick and thorough as well. Far better than the trimmers and knocking the hairs down to almost nothing. Means less frequent nose hair duty.

 

[mwhiton52]

Use a small needle nose pliers....get rids of masses in one pull.

I can't see my FUPA. Even in the mirror.

That's what I've been planning to do. Thanks.

I'm afraid that at my age Mrs. Herk will steal the batteries.

Leatherman on ears and nose. Might miss a few but you get rid of the bulk in a hurry.

Makes me sneeze… I like it.

You buy a new trimmer once a month?

Herkmeister's problem with excess hair goes back to
his college days. He went on a blind date and the gal
had pigtails......under her arms.

Lute, you need to write comedy in Hollywood.

 

[LuteHawk]

Herkmeister told me that he does not get much loving
from his wife in the month of January. She always sets
their electric blanket on HEADACHE.

You're all FUPA.

He rich n shit. Selling shoes just to stay in touch w/the commoners.

 

[Herkmeister]

You're all FUPA.

With a little bit of gristle.
