It’s a no brainer to most fellas to keep their hairy bits limited to the normally attractive places.
How to Deal with Nose Hairs
Nose hairs are best tended to with a tweezers if there’s a few and a nose hair trimmer is there is plenty of them. Use a flat head tweezers as they clap on the hair and let you get it out with one pull. Pulling nose hairs is an eye watering experience at best. Cheaper pointed tweezers will drive you slowly and quietly mad. Not worth the saving of €3 by anyone’s standards.
How to Tackle Toe Hairs
Finer and toe hairs can be quickly got rid of with a shave if there are fine and regrowth wont cause finger or toe stubble. If they are of a stronger bread use a tweezers as this makes them grow back thinner and it takes a week or two rather than a day a two for them to reappear. If you shave them make sure you use a light hand cream like Neutrogena Hand Cream so that the skin doesn’t become flaky from razor burn.
Ear Hair
Ear Hair is even sorer than nose hairs so if you have more than a few invest in a nose/ear trimmer.
Back Hair
While this doesn't bother some men it can be hated by others. A few stray hairs can be plucked with a flat head tweezers but more than a few will require shaving, waxing or depilatory creams.
Shaving is quick and easy and as long as you go slowly and use plenty of shaving gel to mositure the skin you should have no major issues. The problem with shaving is that the hair comes back quickly - between one to two days for regrowth stubble is the norm, it can be tichy, it can leave the skin sore and dry and the hair regrowth seems thicker than before.
Depilartoy creams, such as Veet are handy as long as the ahirs are not too strong or thick. You just rub the cream on (remember to wash your hands after use) and the cream will dissolve the hair. As the hair is dissolved in the skin's pores regrowth is much slower than with shaving. As the hairs are dissolved rather than bluntly cut like with shaving they appear finer, lighter and dont itch on regrowth.
The final frontier of body hair removal is waxing. It is the most effective interms of being hair free for upto 6 weeks, of the hair growing back thinner and finer and that the skin is clear, exfloiated and not irritated. Veet offer a couple of products for home waxing. The pre waxed strips are great for small areas, such as shoulders. You simple warm the strip up by rubbing it between your hands, apply the strip to the area of hair and quickly pull it off. It smarts rather than hurts but if you are sensitive to pain do take a painkiller a half an hour before waxing. For larger areas of hair Veet offer a pot of wax with seperate strips of fabric. You heat the wax in a microwave, apply the warm (not hot) wax to thearea of hairy skin, a strip of fabric onto the waxed skin and then pull off. The hair is pulled off with the fabric and because it is pulled from the roots does not grow back for upto 6 weeks.
The Trick of Pain Free Hair Removal
The biggest tip with nose and ear hair is to buy a good magnifying mirror. Check your bits every morning or evening in a good hard light. The older you get the more the hair moves to the wrong places and the worst your eyesight gets so make it a ritual of checking when you brush your teeth.
If you find hair removal a sore process do it immediately after the showr. The steam opens your pores and loosens the hairs ( a little). Putting pressure on the area will lessen the blood supply and dull the pain a bit. For major hair removal events take a couple of paracetmaol a half an hour before the procedure.
