I think I mentioned this before, I have a rare disorder called pili multigemini

Which is where I will sometimes produce multiple hairs out of the same follicle. It's mostly in one general area in my beard, and it doesn't happen often.
Doctors think I'll survive. Well, I haven't ever been to a doctor about it, but I did diagnose myself with Google and it doesn't seem to be a problem.
But the weird thing is...I can pluck them out of my beard without even looking. Heck, I don't even know I'm doing it until I pull it out and see it. So, it would seem, I can subconsciously feel the follicle, and know when it's ready to be plucked.
Cool right?

Do you also get the random mega hair. It's the same diameter as a regular hair, but sturdy as oak. It's impossible to bend and if you squeeze it between 2 fingers, it just pokes and hurts, but doesn't even flex.
You can run your finger over your whiskers and then immediately feel the iron hair in there.

Those feel so good to pull.
The weirdest one was similar to one of those, but it was legit like 8 or 12 hairs braided together like a real rope!

I use to get those. Don’t worry, it didn’t turn me gay or nothin’ and it goes away.

I would pull them with tweezers. I guess I pulled them enough that it killed the follicle or something because I really don't get them anymore.

that type of treatment may help you.
I'll contact my barber to see if he can get his razor sharpened.

Basically almost daily, but not constantly, I will get this itch right at the base of my left shoulder blade, exactly where I have zero chance of reaching it. As a result, I have a back scratcher on each floor of our house, and I use one of them almost daily.
Luckily a few good scratches and it goes away. But it always returns in a day or so.

but why don't they bottle the stuff at the root of a beard hair? I could pressure wash my hand and still find that lil hair holding on for dear life. And then when it finally makes it to the sink...same thing.

shaving? Every single time. And look, I'm not garbage person. I try to get everything down the drain and I swear I do. But by the time she comes home, it looks like crap again and I get the blame for not even attempting.
I'm like woman. If you see the way it is before I clean it, you'll know I tried.
My theory is I miss the stuff that's hidden up under the lip of the sink, and then it slowly slides its way down to the basin to set me up for the crime.

I tried to remedy this by shaving in the shower, but my beard trimmer is

not really water friendly, kinda old model, so I got worried I'd fubar it. Also, the steam from the shower made it seem harder to shave.
So I went back to using the sink and getting chastised. I also clean up after myself, but a couple random beard hairs will cause a comment.
