for background, I shaved my forearms for practicing methods of shaving my legs. low-key a mistake, don’t think id recommend shaving arms lol

I picked up a pizza after getting a shower and to dry out my hair faster I didn’t turn on the AC, was in a hot car in Florida for like 5m while it cooked and this is what happened. Pretty cool!

Edit: also it’s interesting to visualize how much water is lost when you sweat

    I have something similar happen to me when I eat kiwis. The top of my head just starts sweating.

      I know a lot of people are mildly allergic to kiwis so I looked up the symptoms and stumbled on something unexpected… Frey’s Syndrome:

      Sweating (face, neck, temples) triggered by food. Usually a result of gland surgery, it can also be caused by ingrown hairs near the auricotemporal nerve.

      I’ve suffered from ingrown hairs my whole life (yes I bathe regularly) and definitely have had some near my ears. It’s almost too coincidental…

        ingrown hairs fucking with a nerve is horrifying no matter how i look at it, either the hair is horrifyingly deep in there or the nerve is like 5mm from the surface of the skin

      Philosophy aside, do you get the impression that kiwi tastes different to you than it does to others?
