When the Hell did I Start Growing Hair on my Earlobes?!
I am not old! I’m not even technically middle-aged yet. No way, no how. I’m only 35! So why is it people are claiming I should just start getting used to things like this? I mean… seriously!

Better not shave tose ear hairs. I know a guy who looks like he has a beard on his ears. Get one of those battery powered pluckers and yank them out.

Yup, you’re at that age. Take it from the voice of experience. It’s a universal “man truth”; when the hair starts receding from the top of the head it starts growing through the ears and nose.
I will NOT be one of those old guys with huge bushy eyebrows and hairy noses! And don’t worry- your wife will be more than willing to remind you when you need a trim.

Chris, next you will find that your eye brows will look like Andy Rooney. Then you will know that old age has come to your door.

Ever tried hair removal cream? Go easy on it though it clears out everything for weeks. Don’t forget to read the instruction ;-)

Ear-hairs? HAH - Just wait for the nostril-hairs to start sprouting!!!
Or, as my ‘chums’ said, when I grew a beard last year “Welcome to puberty!!!” (Not bad, seeing as I was 54 :lol: )

Personally, I love the Image ad for Complete-hair-removal-source.com. Just what I always wanted my own laser hair removal machine. A bargain too, only $999 for the thousands I am sure to spend in medical bills.

The next step will be your nose. Can’t wait to see bushy hairs dangling out of your nostrils! ;)

*Neener neener neener! Chris has hairy earlobes!*
Chris, as boys and girls get older, they start to notice hair in places where there was no hair before. As Daynah says, you’ll also notice things growing.

I’m only 28 and I have them too. I remember you doing a shaving vid and it started out with something like “We Pirillos are a hairy bunch…”. Well, apparently so are we dragons o_o Next thing you know, you’re going to start working out trying to lose that extra ten pounds that came out of nowhere….oh wait…….you’re already doing that! lol

For a guy I think your 30’s is the prime of your life, I just turned 30 in May but for the last 3yrs I was dreading it. When it hit I was ok and asked myself why did I make such a big deal about it. In fact already I feel like life is getting better for me, I feel more self assured than I ever have and I must say I look better now than I did 5yrs ago. Will there be physical changes of course that’s part of being human we won’t look 21 forever.

This is sorta sad on my part. I am only 16 years old, and I have hairs growing in my ears… Makes me wonder if all this stress is really aging myself.

It’s okay, Chris. Once you get old you start growing hair in all sorts of places that you never though possible :-D.

Don’t feel so bad, I’m 20 and a quarter of my hair is gray!
I don’t have any hair in my ears though! :P

Get over it, I’m 60 and my barber(s) have been running either a straight razor or a pair of electric clippers all over and around my ears since I was a kid, so I suppose hair can grow in those places from childhood..
What difference can a few scraggly hair make?
