Eyelashes and eyebrows definitely have to go, then. And can you trim your nails just a bit farther?

FWIW, I have the hobbit hair too - once it gets an inch or two below my shoulders, it stops growing longer and just gets bushier. Last month I had a few inches chopped off and the rest thinned. Two days later at my weekly weigh-in, I was down four pounds! Usual is 1-1.5, so I figure about 2.5 pounds of that was hair.
