Everyone knows that when it comes to wasting money on unnecessary luxuries there’s gullible and then there’s plain stupid – you can be the judge on this one, as I’ve lost all sense of what passes for normal here in Japan.
Propia – a haircare specialist – apparently has cojones so ridiculously tumescent it thinks it can sell packaged wisps of sticky hair to bald-faced Japanese guys who long for a spot of facial fuzz.
The offerings from the home of hirsuteness are as follows: ¥3,150 ($26) for a Hitler-esque moustache, ¥1,890 ($15) for a set of two bottom-lip wuzzles and ¥3,465 ($28) for a skimpy dusting of goatee-style chin hair.

Hahahaha! Any news on how the sales are going along? Wouldn’t it be easier to just not shave? I think all men grow it, only the rate of growth is different. Might as well let it grow naturally and shape it, then spending money on this kind of oddities.
But then again, the neverending oddities are what makes Japan so interesting!
