Father’s Day is just around the corner and you’re probably still looking for the perfect gift. There isn’t much time left to shop, but I have a handful of hairy hints that just might do the trick. Geek Daddies are notorious for not spending enough time tending to personal grooming. Father’s Day presents a special chance for you to give that special something that keeps on giving, all year long. Sure, some folks might think of these gift ideas as gags, but other folks will see them for what they are: acts of personal grooming kindness.

With that in mind, it’s my pleasure to present to you a shamelessly commercial list of Father’s Day Gifts for Hair Challenged Geek Daddies, from the good folks at over-the-counter.com:

Nose and ear hair removers top the chart. There’s nothing more upsetting than realizing that you have grown a forest of hair in places where hair shouldn’t be seen. The Remington Precision Nose and Ear Trimmer has zippy little rotary blades that that will whisk unwanted hairs from Dad’s nose, ears and eyebrows. What Dad wouldn’t be happy to unwrap a nose and ear hair trimmer!

And if old pop has a serious overabundance of hair (in other places where hair shouldn’t be growing), you might want to help him out with a kind gift of a hair remover of one kind or another.

If your geek daddy likes to experiment with facial hair as much as I do, he’ll be overwhelmed with joy when he receives a Norelco Beard And Moustache Trimmer This nifty pop-up trimmer will help Pop trim his goatee and sideburns to perfection, by virtue of its ergonomic design that provides for maximum maneuverability and fabulously convenient cordless operation. Cordless is definitely the way to go! Now if only my family would read this column … I’d be in facial hair experimentation heaven!

Shaving should be a joy not a chore. If you have deep pockets, check out the Braun Syncro System Shaver … Braun says that this little beauty provides their closest, most comfortable and convenient shave ever. The ultra-high speed motor delivers a staggering 8500 RPMs … that’s 500 more than a high-revving 2004 Honda S2000!

Do your geek daddy’s shoulders look like they’ve been dusted with a freak summer snowstorm? Slip some Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo into his Father’s Day gift bag.

Is Dad getting a little too gray in the beard and long in tooth? Well, we can’t recommend anything about the tooth problem, but we can point you in the direction of the Just for Men Hair Color and Just for Men Mustache, Beard, and Sideburn color.

And finally, if Dad’s getting just a little too thin on top, he doesn’t have to stand in line at the grocery or drugstore with his arms full of Rogaine and Minoxidil … give him the gift that keeps on giving (hair).
