    That’s not the follicle, that’s the bulb at the base of the hair. The follicle is under the skin and the hair will grow back. If you want the hair permanently gone, you need laser treatment, electrolysis, or whatever.

      Does it damage the follicle more tho when you yank out all that mass as opposed to just the hair itself?

      Its not even necessarily that I want it gone forever depending on where it is. Its like pulling a succulent vegatable out of the ground haha. In my mind, it makes the sploosh sound ray made in Scary Movie 2 lol

        I think it does damage the follicle but I’m not sure.

          It does damage the follicle but the damage is small enough that the hair will still be able to grow back, but if you keep doing it over and over that damage will eventually add up and it will damage it enough that the hair won’t grow back, it takes a long time to do that though, especially because most undesirable hair is thicker and therefore more resilient to that kind of damage.

          Makes me wonder how those hair transplant drs actually yank out the whole hair follicle, like what sorcery is that?
