One from the chin, I could feel it and picked at it all morning until I pulled out a pair of tweezers. Super satisfying to take out and was a nice big clump of 4 very thick hairs. I thought about saving it to examine under my microscope at home, but as I was rolling it between my fingers to try and separate the individual strands, it fell to the floor so I did not end up saving it. Still waiting for it to come back.

So I have a tendency to get multiple hair roots that coalesce into a single bulb. Probably around 3-4 follicles combined into one I think.
