Or is it more of a gradual descent over a period of time?

Not sure, but goddamn I could have done with some warning that I'd need to start shaving my ears when I turned 30.

My nose has become a thing...

Ear hair is when I knew I was officially old.

[-] wjrii@lemmy.world 19 points 6 months ago

No major ear hair here, but every once in a while a single follicle somewhere on one earlobe or the other decides to vomit out a 15mm hair in like a day and a half (or so it feels)

This happens to my chin (I'm a lady).

[-] tyrefyre@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

Same here. It’s also thick as a beard hair. Used to be once every few months. Now it’s several a week. Annoying as fuck.

[-] sbv@sh.itjust.works 14 points 6 months ago

Do you get hairy nostrils? Like one or two really long nose hairs that need to be clipped?

[-] codapine@lemm.ee 11 points 6 months ago

"clipped" - you just reminded me of that episode of House, where the clinic patient (tw: gross) has been using his toenail clippers to trim his nose hair, and he developed a fungus.

PSA - Buy a trimmer specific for that purpose.

This is why I read Lemmy: valuable life lessons.

[-] Mickey7@lemmy.world -5 points 6 months ago

LOL. Just the other day I was searching for info on scrotums and older men

[-] sbv@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

Just telling us that made a lot of older men very happy.

Not the nose, but the wolf ears are awful.

[-] tyrant@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

I started to get occasional gray nostril hairs. It's annoying because they are super noticable but also in there far enough like a normal hair that I can't just yank it!

[-] sbv@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 months ago

If I yank em out, I sometimes get some sort of weird ingrown nose hair. It's painful for a few days. Now I'm nose hair trimmers so the way.

[-] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 6 months ago

I know, right?? Ear hair just gets super aggressive one day in your 30s.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Wait what… now I’m gonna be paranoid and check my ears in the mirror every day

Spoiler:

You'll get to have a "the calls are coming from inside the house" situation when something keeps "crawling" on your ear...

[-] Oisteink@feddit.nl 2 points 6 months ago

You see, what’s really happening is that the hair-line gets lowered.

It’s like a hat with no top that you pull a bit down your head. So ears will get covered, nose hair will get head-hair length. You’ll even grow hair high on your cheek like over the cheekbones just under the eyes.

[-] BudgetBandit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Basically they… fall out from the head and wherever they land that’s their new place?

[-] Oisteink@feddit.nl 1 points 6 months ago

Yepp- some are lucky and end up with medium-long chest hair with pony tail on their backs, and some of us end up with hairy ears
