Plucking (hair removal)

[1] Roman baths employed personnel solely to pluck hair from their clients' bodies.

In birds and animals, plucking is usually carried out by humans, sometimes called pluckers, to the carcass of the subject as part of food preparation.

Shaving is a popular go- to hair removal method utilized by both men and women.

Manual plucking involves pulling out the larger feathers then removing the down with a rubbing action.

Automated plucking machines use rubber posts protruding from the inside of a spinning drum to pull the feathers from the bird.
