    My DH seems to enjoy the fact that I am now growing a goatee that could rival his any day. He has created what we call The Lab, where we indulge in our "grooming ritual". Basically, I get to lay down and take a snooze while HE plucks all of the little hairs out of my chin under a brilliantly bright light. Talk about relaxing!

    So glad to know I am not alone in this!

    He does what??? :) I swear I could use this fella when I am like Indiana Jones looking for those under the chin hairs..:)
    When I first started bemoaning the plague of unwanted facial hair, he cavalierly suggested that I "just grow it out", along with my leg and underarm hair......after I shot him THE LOOK (you know the one) he gallantly offered to be my official Plucker. LOL

    (He also copped a plea of temporary insanity due to his French heritage for even proffering such a ridiculous idea.)
    LOL
    THE LOOK.. I laughed at that one..:)

No pulling needed with the tweezers, no ouchs with that spring thingy, just a bad smell. However, the hairs are kept at bay for at least a little bit longer. I use it, and then I might use my tweezers when the first hairs show their ugly faces , but then back I go back to the Nair and get those suckers with a vengeance. At least my facial hair is blonde and white. But how it glistens in the sun :lol:

    Almost like tiny tiny little christmas lights??:)

    This makes me so happy to hear I am not the only one with tweezers every where. I agree the car has been the best place for me to get all those chin hairs. Also I blame medications not age (40+).

    Mine actually change color. I have three tough thick ropes that unravel from a mole under my chin. At times they are a glistening white, then the next time they may grow back as a thick sinewy black. Neither is attractive. And of course I have the massive beard and 'stache growth.
    I keep a pair of tweezers in the car at all times. Funny how those hairs show up in the rear view mirror at a stop light. Ta heck with texting in the car.. tweezing is the newest rage!

    15x???? I didn't know that was available! I just bought a 10x mirror and it's awesome. Imagine what I could see with a stronger mirror!!! Hope I'm not missing anything!
