More of a Man problem than a Woman problem.

Why is it that as one gets older, Ones hair follicles seem to migrate from ones scalp only to start sprouting out of ones ears and Nostrils. :confused:

:p
 
Is that a Bruce Willis quote.

I'm forever pulling hairs out of my nose, ears not bad though even at my age I still can't grow a full beard, I'll be in a zimmer frame by the time I can, why is that - weird?

People at school could grow full beards at I reckon 15, thinking back.

Also still have a full head of curls(no perm).
 
It's the long ones that suddenly appear off your ear lobe, where the hell did that come from and why didn't I see it before it was 2 inches long! :eek:
 
One sign of getting older, is when although your barber still asks, “natural at the back,
or straight across?”, he begins to add, toward the end, “trim your eyebrows sir?”
 
I always find it quite satisfying when you pull a nose hair out and it's really thick and long, feels like you're plucking it from your brain haha.

Nose hair clipper tool thing, also works on ears.
Turkish barbers that burn your ear hair off.
Always get eye brows trimmed too.
Thankfully hair all still in place.
Beard going grey.

:p

My nose/ear trimmer has attachments for short/long for eye brows.

it's water proof so I clean it will....

GF even used it on her brows lol...
 
Got my hair cut yesterday and for the first time in my life I was asked if I wanted my eyebrows trimming.

I thought bloody hell, has it got to that stage already!

Ear hairs are just unfathomable, what purpose do they even serve?
 
I'm bald on top but the rest of my hair is growing out of control. My legs, arm, chest and stomach need trimming regularly.

Same issue here, at 28 I have bald patches of beard which refuse to fill in, but I have a full head of hair. Apparently these are related? Men who can grow beards from a young age tend to go bald on top.

Anecdotally my grandfather, currently at age 93, has a full head of hair, and yet I've never seen him with a beard. Need to ask him if he can grow one, come to think of it. I've seen him with stubble after a few days (as we're looking after him due to his poor health), but there's definite patchiness going on. They say you follow your maternal fathers side? Not sure if there's any logic to that or not.

Annoyingly my father could grow a full, thick beard at a very young age. And now he's very thin on top, so horses for courses.
