Magic beans
I have to watch my personal grooming rather carefully. Family genetics imbued me with tons of hair everywhere, except for my head. If I allowed it, I would have a unibrow. If I allowed it, I could have a nose hair mustache. If I allowed it, my ears would suggest lycanthropy. Why they grow on these areas and not on the top of my head is a mystery that I would love to solve.
What I don’t get is how hairs just suddenly appear. I looked at my ears on Saturday. All good. Tuesday morning, a forty foot long trunk is looming out of my left ear. Did it coil up and hide deep inside my ear? Do they save up massive amounts of potential energy, surging suddenly and kinetically while I sleep? I’m thinking I must have some type of kudzu gene, and these hairs need just the right amount of sun. The top of my head would have too much sun, so they choose shadier places. I should always wear hats to coax them back onto the top of my head. I know this is all vain, but being a werewolf was never my idea, especially since there is no full moon.

Same EXACT thing happens to me all the time. Especially on the edges of my ears. Sometimes I catch a little bit of backlight and it looks like I'm sprouting silver antennae.

Yeah, I like the fuzzy nimbus surrounding my ears also- it makes me feel like a Catholic saint.
