I’m on the fence about trying this. The fence between no, and fuck no.

Pull one nose hair out = hurt like Hell.:sob: Pull a bunch at a time = much less painful. I don’t mess around - use needle nose pliers. :laughing:

Ooo, I have specifically wanted something quite like this and might order a kit. I don’t have a lot of ‘stril hairs but the ones in the front corners are hard to tweeze.

Also, bonus fact: my real name is C.R. “Bob” Hobbs

(Though for privacy purposes, or is it?)

They should use your photos on the box cover. Way hairier.

Nose hair waxing works really well. It’s not actually painful in the way that pulling out one hair or a few at once is. But it does feel like nothing else you’ve ever experienced! :slight_smile: And you will suffer a lightly runny nose for maybe 3-4 hours afterwards. But, the relief from the itchy, hairy feeling in my nose is instant and my nose feels… free. Waxing with an applicator only removes the nose-beard in the wide open part of the nostril approximately one fingernail length deep. The part where hair exist purely to remind us that we are animals. I usually have to repeat the procedure for each nostril to get at the hairs in the upper corners. But that’s probably because all my hair is super-thick and so the roots are pretty strong. …And I’m lazy so I only do the waxing every 3 months, at most. I use “NAD’S Nose Wax” and clean the applicators after use so I can use them again. You don’t want to see a picture of the applicator + wax + thick black hair and I won’t post one.

A big problem with this is that infections in the nose can get through the blood/brain barrier.

This doesn’t sound right to me. Are you sure about that?

  1. Wash hands

  2. Wash/sterilize utensils.

  3. Apply anti-bacterial ointment when done.

Should remove most risk.

You can also get brain eating amoebas swimming in a lake, but let’s not be afraid to live a little.

Also regarding pain, feeling of relief overcomes any pain, which one learns to ignore over time.

Yep, sure do. But only after heating them in a microwave or in boiling hot water.

My Dear Wife refers to my nose hairs as my resident lab rats, it’s her way of encouraging me to handle the issue post haste.

Dear gawd, I am the target market for this.

My current tool (and I’m not kidding…) is the mighty hemostat.

Clamp and RIPPPPP!

Have you heard of a small scissors? This is just more plastic in a landfill

Yeah what’s with all the nostril plucking? Just cut that shit! you still have enough hair up there to do its job, it’s just invisible to the general public. And it doesn’t hurt like a Vietnamese POW camp.

No, no, no, no, no. You are supposed to cultivate your nose hairs.
