prk888 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Where can you go in Pattaya / Jomtien to get nosehair trimmed ? Before anyone says, no I'm not interested in doing it myself or have my girl do it for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit_Doggie Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Maybe a tattooist might accommodate you, idk but not to be sniffed at suggestion, or failing that a beautician may also accommodate and a lot of hairdressers are come beauticians.

KittenKong Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Any barbershop. Yes, it's normally done as part of a standard haircut along with earlobes and eyebrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Once you have that sorted, can anyone here advise on getting someone to do my shoelaces for me. I need to get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitawatWatawit Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I know of aplace on the darkside where they will do it, and shave yor pubic hairs as well. And your public hairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 There is a barber shop on soi Buakhow with an older Thai male barber who cut my nosehairs, cleaned my ears and trimmed my eyebrows along with giving me a very decent haircut. South Pattaya Rd end near Sunview Place Hotel, same side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toenail Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) Forum members who read this question may find it amusing BUT!!!! the traditional Western barbershop catering to men would include this routine as part of a haircut. But now many fellows, including myself, want to go to a hair salon where I can receive more attention to my chosen hair style and where the barber or hair stylist will spend more time with not only with the electric clippers (adjusted to 1-2-3) but use 2-3 kinds of scissors where as the traditional barbershop has a standard way of cutting ones hair (not much style but less cost). The downfall of the hair salon, hair boutique- all those fancy titles to stay away from the term, barber shop, fails to remember to shave behind the neck, ears, or even nose of the hairy homosapiens from the cold climates. As a male gets over the hill (40 or 50 yrs old) he ends up growing hair in areas that at one time was unimaginable... in the ear, on the ear, down the neck... thicken growth in the nose or eyebrows; meanwhile his head hair is thinning out. Trying to remove hair inside...outside...on the ear lobe is quite a task so finding someone to do this kind of grooming is a big plus. Also since I am over the hill, I realized why older men grow beards... the facial hair thickens and becomes as tough as copper wire; thus, those expensive Gillette Mach 3 razor blades selling at 130 baht a piece, lasting for a few days is money that could be spent on a couple cold beers or icecream. It would be nice to be an Asian man that has only a little stubble to shave around the chin. (Maybe the Gillette razors are not as strong sold in Thailand -mmmm) Edited August 5, 2015 by toenail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onemorechang Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 To the Op, when you find the place, can you tell me, name and location, so I can come down and get some belly button fluff removed. its way to distressing to remove it myself or to get lady Chang to do it, scary stuff, button fluff !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dddave Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 (Maybe the Gillette razors are not as strong sold in Thailand -mmmm) No doubt in my mind that the Gillette razors sold in Thailand are inferior to counterparts made in the USA. I've got a moderate beard and easily get 4 to 5 weeks of daily shaving from the Trac-3's I bring from the US. Not much more than half that from the comparable models purchased locally. I go to the US about twice a year and always bring a supply back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michaelaway Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Try the barber shop on Pattaya Tai/ BEACH SIDE of 2nd road; it's an air-conditioned, old-time shop. They do it all... 80 baht! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) In my experience local barber shops just stick one of those cheap nose hair clipper battery powered thingies in your nose that they've used on thousands of other people. Dude, that is BEYOND disgusting. It's like sharing a sex toy. Beyond that if you've really got a lot hair there, there is no way they are going to spend the time needed to really clean it up. It's more like a gesture. Buy your own! Edited August 5, 2015 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All other barbers I have used here have used scissors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya28 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 If you find a human nasal-trimmer, make sure the scissors have been sterilized. Last time I had this service, I spotted a few crusty hairs attached to the scissor-tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tropo Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Rotary nose clipper....... Yes, or just simple tweezers while you're reading Thaivisa or watching TV LOL. I actually enjoy it. It's hard not to comment here, but who would let their nose hairs grow so long that they need to have a barber trim them? Get them when they are short and often, and you won't get that rough, shaved feel you get when you cut them. Tweezing them takes out the roots, so they grow back more slowly. At least I'm not just having a dig, I'm giving out some decent grooming advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheungWan Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 The ears need to be scraped, but more and more barbers are getting lazy and just want to use the nose trimmer on the ears. The nose trimmers are a waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoker58 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Trimming nose hairs is pointless. They just grow back thicker than before. Man up and pluck them out by the roots. It's a good opportunity to get some swearing practice in too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do the same, Years ago I did try using a Bic lighter, did the job very quick, slight sting But could not get rid of the smell all day. never again.

Jingthing Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 (edited) I really like the idea of a fun themed nose hair waxing specialty shop. You know, the Thai stereotype that foreigners have big noses and are hairy. There could be a big sign out front with an exaggerated massive schnozola oozing with hairs. Assuming it could be priced well compared the west ... who could resist having a go ... and if the service is good and long lasting ... repeat customers! Of course, why stop at noses you might ask? Why indeed. Well, they could do the butts in the back. Edited August 6, 2015 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonewolf99 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I worked with a man who tried to burn the hairs out with a hot soldering iron. You can guess the result ? a painful 3rd degree blister up his hooter. Alcohol played a large part of his decision making at the time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
