It was horrible) ---

Re: That guy up there. I don’t know, y’all. Could pubic hair be braided? Otherwise, I don’t know how I could justify the length of it unless it came off a yak’s balls or something, and then got conditioned the hell out of like ZZ Top’s, dyed and then plugged in the back where he still **had** some hair. That would take out the economical part of the procedure, though. I mean, the guy cutting the yak’s ball hair would have to have insurance, right - unless we out-sourced it to yak country? But hell, then we’d still have to pay transport and custom fees. I think we need to form a committee/study group. I think we can do this. Dopers can do _anything_! Quasi ---

I recall watching some reality or dating show in which a female contestant stated she braided her pubic hair, so I suppose it’s indeed possible. Why you would let yourself go and let it grow long enough to be braided is but one question that rose to my mind after hearing that revelation… ---

I think yeah, **runnerpat**. Cornrows are for the top of the head, and the other is for the asshole and that’s why they make Cornholer’s Lotion - for ease of entry. Acts kinda like KY Jelly, I think. As for the other, see? One problem solved already, thanks to **BrandonR**! 🙂 So now we know we can keep it stateside - if we have enough people to harvest the hair. Next question: how much to pay the employees? Well, there’s another problem solved: lotsa people out of work, so $2.00 above minimum wage sound right? I think since the idea was mine, I oughta get to be Human Resources so as to make sure everyone who applies has the requisite green card. We’ll then form officers of the company and a board of directors. Are we going to go pubic right away, or should we wait before we offer stocks? Thanks Quasi ---

The only way it’d work is if your pubic hair was long enough to give to Locks of Love. ---

> [@Inigo\_Montoya](#): > > This is a wonderful idea. And my back-hair isn’t all that curly. I’m a pretty shaggy dude except for my under-furnished crown. I tell my kids that I’m not really going bald, my hair is just sliding down my back. You can’t be my husband, he only has one kid. His back hair is rather long and about as wavy as the hair that used to be on top of his head. ---

> [@tdn](#): > > Dude, I’m just this far away from being able to do a combover with my ear hairs. What do you expect of me?!? I’ve been trying to get my back hair to march north and fill in the ranks. Using back hair for a comb-over might work, but it would probably look like an upside-down mullet. Not so attractive. :eek: ---

My biggest worry with this idea is that my scalp would continue to shrink and grow. My eyebrows would be all over the place and people wouldn’t know if I was happy or sad. ---

I had a customer who used to come in for waxing. A funny spot of coarse tight curly hair around his ear. Turns out he’d had a skin graft as a kid and they’d used skin from inside his thigh. I swallowed the story at the time, but … ??? ---

Turns out he’d had a skin graft as a kid and they’d used skin from inside his thigh. I swallowed the story at the time, but … ??? I knew a woman who lost an eyebrow to a dog bite. After the initial repair of the defect, she had a thin strip of skin grafted from her pubic area so that she would have an eyebrow. ---
