Wily Whiskers

We all have them at a certain age. They are unavoidable. Whether you pluck, shave or pay someone else to do it, there is one you will deal with personally. The one wily whisker we all wear.

It can be on your chin, lip, nose, eyebrow or cheek. It’s the one that seems to pop up overnight and have grown almost an inch! Okay, maybe it isn’t that long, but it sure does seem like it. One day, you are in control of the hairs on your face and the next day it is there; long, thick, black, mocking you.

You handle it and feel triumphant. But it returns… It always returns.
