Trichotillomania

[Auric]

Okay, it's not really trichotillomania... but I defy ye one and all (dudes) to pluck only one beard hair and no more. No more, I say!

For those feeling particularly El Macho and strong-willed make it a nostril hair. But I warn ye, as trivial as it may seem at first thought, the body takes such assaults most seriously.

For the ladies, alas, wispy hairs don't count so just go straight for the nostril. Unless you actually have a beard. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Heck, some of my best friends are side-show performers.

i pluck my nose hairs... i'm kinda suffering from it now, actually... one of the hairs has become ingrown.

I pluck my nose hairs too. An ingrown one would suck. But plucking beard hairs why?!? I like my scruffy face.

I never plucked nostril hairs before and only just recently found it "necessary" to trim a couple errant ones which were beginning to peek out. Then I figgered, heck, rather than keeping that up I'll just pluck 'em to significantly reduce the interval. Vanity: 1, Immune System: 0. The resulting pain, sneeze reflex and eye watering are clear evidence that 'tis indeed considered a serious assault, as said.

As for ze beard hairs, well, I don't sport a beard beard or even a goatee, moustache, or mutton chops (oh, to dream!). But I rarely shave in favour of short trimming. However, after a few days wi'out, a rogue hair or three may present itself apart from the pack and therefore, upon closer inspection, diminish the overall appearance. That's where a safety razor normally comes in however as with the errant nostril hairs I figgered just pluck 'em instead. That's when the trichotillomania or whatever begins to threaten as it's difficult to stop refining in spite of the pain which actually does afford a certain twisted delight.

I just stick the end of a disposable razor up my nose and go to town. :laugh:
