kris 0 Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Prevention is better than cure , strip the ears on a regular basis with small forceps as they tend to get deeper in the ear. you can use olive oil to soften the wax and it should break down in its own time, you can do this weekly, i hope this helps Quote Link to post

The hair grows quite some way down - I pluck it out with blunt tweezers as far as I dare. Edited January 10, 2006 by Tab Quote Link to post
