Have you ever noticed hair growing on or around your ears and wondered why? While most people are familiar with the appearance of hair on their arms, legs, and face, ear hair often remains a mystery.

But did you know that ear hair growth is actually a natural sign of your body? It could reveal important information about your health, genetics, and even your hormones.

The science behind ear hair growth.

Ear hair isn’t a random phenomenon: it has a biological function! There are two types of ear hair:

Fine (vellus) hairs – These tiny, almost invisible hairs line the inside of the ear and help trap dust and debris.
Terminal (coarse) hairs – These are the visible, thicker hairs that can grow on the outer ear or inside the ear canal, especially with age.
Why does ear hair grow?
1. A sign of aging and hormonal changes

1. A sign of aging and hormonal changes.
As men age, their testosterone levels promote thicker hair growth in unexpected places, such as the nose, ears, and even eyebrows.

This happens because dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a byproduct of testosterone, stimulates hair follicles in these areas, leading to excessive growth.

Women may also experience increased ear hair growth after menopause due to hormonal imbalances and changes in estrogen levels.

2. Genetics play a role.
If you have older male relatives with visible ear hair, chances are you’ll develop it too! Studies show that genetics determine how sensitive your hair follicles are to hormones, making some people more prone to ear hair growth than others.

3. A natural protective barrier.
Your body is smart! The tiny hairs inside your ear canal have one function: they act as a filter, preventing dust, bacteria, and small particles from entering your inner ear.

In a way, your body is trying to protect itself by developing these tiny barriers.

4. Increased circulation and nutrient flow.
Some alternative theories suggest that hair growth in unexpected areas, such as the ears, may indicate good blood circulation and active nutrient delivery to the scalp and face.

While not a proven fact, many believe that increased hair growth may be a sign that your body is functioning well in some way.
Possible health indicator?
In rare cases, excessive ear hair may be linked to certain health problems.

Some studies have suggested a correlation between excessive ear hair and an increased risk of heart disease in older men, but more research is needed to confirm this theory.

Should you wax your ears?
While ear hair is useful, some people choose to wax them for aesthetic or comfort reasons.

If you want to trim or wax them, here are some safe methods:

Trimming: Use small, rounded-tip scissors or electric clippers.
Waxing: This method lasts longer but can be uncomfortable.
Laser hair removal: A permanent option for excessive ear hair.
However, avoid plucking or inserting sharp objects into the ear canal, as this can cause irritation or infection.

Bottom line:
Ear hair growth is completely natural and often linked to hormones, age, genetics, and the body’s natural defenses.

While it may seem unexpected, it’s usually nothing to worry about.

So, the next time you spot a few hairs on your ears, remember: your body works in its own way!

Not every client is meant to be your client.

A client who questions every section, compares your prices to their last stylist, repeatedly cancels at the last minute or ignores your boundaries can quickly drain your time, energy and confidence.

Letting a client go isn’t always personal, and it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Sometimes it’s simply the most professional decision for both of you.

Protect your time. Protect your talent. Protect the space you’ve worked hard to build.

What behaviour would make you decide it’s time to fire a client?

HERE'S WHAT NO CASH ACTUALLY MEANS:
A cashless society means no cash. Zero. It doesn’t mean mostly cashless and you can still use a ‘wee bit of cash here & there’. Cashless means fully digital, fully traceable, fully controlled. I think those who support a cashless society aren’t fully aware of what they are asking for. A cashless society means:

* If you are struggling with your mortgage on a particular month, you can’t do an odd job to get you through.
* Your child can’t go & help the local farmer to earn a bit of summer cash.
* No more cash slipped into the hands of a child as a good luck charm or from their grandparent when going on holidays.
* No more money in birthday cards.
* No more piggy banks for your child to collect pocket money & to learn about the value of earning.
* No more cash for a rainy day fund or for that something special you have been putting $20 a week away for.
* No more little jobs on the side because your wages barely cover the bills or put food on the table.
* No more charity collections.
* No more selling bits & pieces from your home that you no longer want/need for a bit of cash in return.
* No more cash gifts from relatives or loved ones.
What a cashless society does guarantee:
* Banks have full control of every single penny you own.
* Every transaction you make is recorded.
* All your movements & actions are traceable.
* Access to your money can be blocked at the click of a button when/if banks need ‘clarification’ from you which will take about 3 weeks, a thousand questions answered & five thousand passwords.
* You will have no choice but to declare & be taxed on every dollar in your possession.
* The government WILL decide what you can & cannot purchase.
* If your transactions are deemed in any way questionable, by those who create the questions, your money will be frozen, ‘for your own good’.

Forget about cash being dirty. Stop being so easily led. Cash has been around for a very, very, very long time & it gives you control over how you trade with the world. It gives you independence.

If you are a customer, pay with cash. If you are a shop owner, remove those ridiculous signs that ask people to pay by card. Cash is a legal tender, it is our right to pay with cash. Banks are making it increasingly difficult to lodge cash.

Please open your eyes. Please stop believing everything you are being told. Almost every single topic in today’s world is tainted with corruption & hidden agendas.
Pay with cash & please say no to a cashless society while you still have the choice.
