My nose hairs are definitely at least as thick as my facial hair.

After a certain age you have "shave" them or you start to look like a farm animal.

And don't get me started on ear hair.

I remember the first time I saw an old dude with tufts of hair sticking out from his ears, probably a good 3/4".

I noticed I have more nose hair now days, what is up with that. lol. Thankfully no ear hair...

Those hairs are tough too, I try to rip them out but that hurts as hell. My trimmer does have an attachment for nose hair so I just go at it once in a while with that.

I'm just glad I still have my head hair. Getting closer to 40 and so far so good... It's definitely thinner than it was when I was a kid, but still thick enough that I can rock long hair.

If you grow bushy enough facial hair, it mostly hides the ones coming out of your nose and ears.
I think the ear hair might be beneficial though. It seems like it may be thick enough to stop bees from flying inside of the ears and stinging.
When I was 4 i did not have any ear hair and a bee flew into my ear and stung me. I had to have the stinger removed at the hospital.

I worked with a guy years ago and he was changing his shirt in his cubicle. Woah I thought I had startled a black bear!
He shaved his neck down below his uniform shirt collar and nobody knew.

I was at a party once, and some people were swimming. One guy looked like he was wearing a fur suit. I wondered how decided where to stop shaving. It was too long ago to remember where he did stop, but it was arbitrary. A little higher, a little lower... wouldn't make much difference :^D

When I was in the military and we all did the thing where we got tattoos together, one of the gang got the Eye of Horus on his back. They had to shave the spot, and I'm pretty sure no one was ever going to be able to see it after the hair grew back in (unless he kept shaving that spot). I'd never seen that much body hair on a person before.
