    So my daughter got my a hot Turkish shave for fathers day and today I decides to use it..
    I’ve never been to a Turkish barbers before so don’t know if this is normal but halfway through the shave the barber stopped and got out a reel of cotton, snapped length off, and through some black art started using it to nip off stray hairs. Wow I thought that’s neat, that was until he moved to my nostrils! OMFG that smarts, my eyes watered uncontrollably and I started sneezing, ‘are you OK boss?’ he asked, I’m sure he was smirking too.
    I supposed I should be glad that he didn’t ask for my bank card and pin number as I would have given that to him there and then!
    Next time I’ll veto the nose hair removal and opt for kick in the balls instead.

    It’s a threading technique and what the women often have done to their eye brows.

    Nose hair is a bit extreme though.

    it’s called threading – didn’t know they could do your nose though.
    did he set fire to your ears?

    When I had one in Turkey they used paraffin lamp to burn them away.

    When I had it done they got a dod of cotton wool, dipped it in some shit, lit it and used it to singe/burn off nasal, ear and stray eyebrow hairs.

    The stench stayed with me for hours…..

    My ears weren’t touched, should I be grateful?

    I get that each time I go to the barbers and they napalm my ears – I can smell burn hair on the tram ride back to work, then nothing, then the next morning again in the shower.

    Still I always get a seat to myself on the tram.

    Yeah, mine uses a candle. It’s was a rainforest up my nostrils before he got to work.

    I rip my nose hairs out. I kind of like it.

    That’s weird isn’t it?

    Especially the nose hair that when you give it a tweak feels like its attached somewhere to the rear of your cranial cavity. I have more hair in my ears and nose now than I have on my head and i’m really not sure of the point of ear hair.

    The burning version is weird as is the smell. But love the whole experience.

    I pull my own nose hair out, anything thats long enough to get with my fingers doesn’t last long.

    It.must grow quite rapidly though as I can harvest it pretty frequently.
