POLL: Wild Hair Management
Monday, May 27th, 2024 05:37 pmMy mother and her father had outstanding bushy eyebrows, which I sadly didn’t inherit. MyGuy, you will not be surprised to learn, has eyebrows so luxuriant that he trims them.
But after menopause, my body hair changed. I now have one wild hair in my right eyebrow, silver white and standing proud (as we slashers often say). I'm happy to have it! But I also have thick, black whiskers under my chin. I think of them as my goat hairs--same location as the caprine version, and just as thick. They sting when they grow in, and I eagerly await the moment when they're long enough to pluck with a 5-inch surgical tweezer.
And you?
