Soda Jerk Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Ah yes. True. It softens the wax too, even if it doesn't get it all out. I'm told it can hurt like hell if they blast water into hardened wax, and can have lasting damage. Pour some Crisp and Dry into your lugholes for a few days first.

ca_gere Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 What is it with this site and ear-syringing? That's about the 4th time its been mentioned. Lugs should be left alone, filled with tatties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scootray Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Getting your ears syringed is ace. It's like they're tickling your brain. Plus, the ability to hear afterwards is an added bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaki Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Get them syringed then. I've never had a doctor say no when my lugs have been clogged up. It's proper ace when you've had it done too. You can hear like a bat.I once just had one ear blocked, and they only syringed one. Made the other one feel clogged up after it was done. Always get both.I've only had it done once and I freaked out on the way home - walking through the woods thinking someone was following me. What's all these fucking noises?! Thankfully Beady Eye didn't exist then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 What's the oil treatment?Warm some olive oil in the microwave, then soak it up with some cotton wool (it should be wet but not dripping) then place it in your ear (the ear, not the ear canal) and turn your head to the side and let it drain in. It softens the wax up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 I thought it sounded horrible too but it's ace. If you've got blocked ears it gets rid of all the pressure build up. And helps you hear better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idol_wild Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 I use almond oil for a few days in my ears before syringing. I love the little crackling noise it makes as it begins to soften up the wax. Seriously satisfying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ca_gere Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 That moment in the hairdressers when she's been cutting away for ages and asks you if it's ok but you think it's not short enough. You don't want to piss her off and get her to redo your whole head but you didn't want to cut her off mid-cut to tell her she wasn't cutting it short enough.

Irrational fear, I guess, but having some stranger hold a pair of scissors to your neck for ten minutes might be kinky for some but it's not my bag.

ca_gere Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I always get a bit blissed out at the hairdressers. I enjoy it. I'm sure there's something Freudian about liking some big titted middle-aged woman fondling ur head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framheim Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Yes yes yes.Once had a girl charge me for two haircuts because I said it was too short, so she did it again.Still tipped her, cos her tits were banging.how did they manage to redo it if she'd cut it too short? did she glue some back on? no wonder she charged you again, that'd be a hell of a faff.

Guest idol_wild Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Still tipped her, cos her tits were banging.Against the back of your neck?I love it when that happens. When I was a kid, my mum used this home-visiting hairdresser called Estelle (seriously, that was her name!), and not only was she bang tidy, but her dodes would frequently bounce provocatively against the back of my neck when she was cutting my hair.

Dumbass.I did the opposite. For some reason at work after working there 6 months I decided to forget about this whole 9 business. Phones, someone says hello. I give them this massive big schpeel about what I need, what's the prices and when can I get it. then she said it."Jake, you forgot to press 9"Hairdressers are nothing. If anyone who went to Muirfield Primary remembers Miss Wildgoose. Damn, I was always asking for help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Easy Wishes Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 So this ear syringing thing...how do I know if I need it? It sounds amazing, I don't think I need it, but what if I do?

Saying that I guess its got to weighed with the fact that I let old gold loose on my hair the last time and he made a fucking hash out of it. I wish I was bald.

Surfer_Rosa Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I just get my hair cut at a barbers by some Algerian dudes, it's much better. Admittedly there's no boobs banging against my head, but there's no forced shit-chat, way cheaper and they've perfectly aligned the mirrors in front and on the wall behind so you can watch Sky Sports.

Captain America Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I just don't talk. Is that weird? Other than to answer the basic what do you want done to your hair I just sit there in silence answer their first two questions with no or yes and they soon get the idea and shut up and cut your hair.I hate getting my hair cut though. Never have liked it. I want to get one of those head shaver things that's shaped like those circular hair brushes but I bet it would be rubbish.

What if there are sounds I'm just not hearing? ?(I've had it done twice. because my ear is so blocked with wax I couldn't hear out of it. And they were really picking about actually doing it. I had to go get some ear drops shits and try them for a week and then come back before they would do it.If your ears are blocked for a few days, the feeling of having them unblocked is fucking amazing. Though you end up walking slightly off balance for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No boob brushing, due to cup size though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
