Witch hazel is also a good facial toner after you finish washing up.
Yeah, it’s… odd. I don’t breathe through my nose when applying it. I would say it’s unpleasant but not necessarily repellant (so bad, but not BAD bad). Luckily the scent dissipates rather quickly.
There are very few odors that cause me to start retching. One is tobacco; another is witch hazel.
For some odd reason, that concoction has made its way into barber shops in every country I’ve visited or resided in. It’s like a ritual for barbers everywhere:
[ul][li]Use a little whisk broom to get the hair off the chair[/li][li]Snap the sheet so it sounds like the barber’s cool[/li][li]Query the customer to know what kind of haircut to give[/li][li]Ruin the entire experience by putting witch hazel on the poor guy[/ul][/li]
The first thing I tell the barber, even before telling him or her what kind of haircut I want, is “Do not put witch hazel on my hair”.
Fire that comes up to my hips.
However, it’s a great jangly-guitar song, so here’s a video. Maybe the OP can dance to it until his bunghole stops burning?
(I’d forgotten about this one, going to download and put on the iphone. TY!)

Thanks for the musical suggestions, but this more closely captures the mood, while the “dancing” was inspired by the drummer:
Am surprised that people don’t like the smell of witch hazel; to me, it is vaguely medicinal and not much of a scent at all.
Am happy to report that apart from the emotional scarring, all’s well that ends well.
