Somewhere, there must be a site where you can easily make up whatever “Instagram trend” you like.
THIS is the unit to get. Works great. Takes five seconds. Zero pain. Plucking nose hairs en masse? Fuck that noise!
As a favor to the Boing Boing commentariat and the world at large, I will reveal the best way, by far, to rid oneself of nose hair: nail trimmers. No, really. You get a close trim, and, assuming a modicum of caution, no blood, or even pain. Trust me on this. Go ahead, try it, right now.
Around 40 years ago my mom had a boyfriend that thought he was funny as shit. I got too close to him once. For giggles, he grabbed my head and put his mouth over my nose and blew. Hard. I doubt I’ll ever forget that, and my sinuses have bothered me ever since. His mother was nice though. It probably helped that she knew her son was a dingus.
I think I would rather live through that again rather than start waxing my nostrils.
I will take a look at this though.
my eyes do water and the young ones unfortunate to have been born on the rim sting like a paper cut but for some reason it feel like a cleansing, self-flagelating pain more than irritaion. I associate it more with eating hot peppers than skinning your knee…
More like Nostrildumbass, am I right?
Plaiting is where it’s at these days.
… or so I’m told …
Pfft, what hbappened to manly hair removal? Light a match, hold it under your nostril a while, hairs be gone! Stings a bit, but it also gets rid of your ability to smell bad odours. Or any odours come to think of it.
You win the TMI contest!
That’s an understatement. Geez, what the hell is wrong with some people?!!? (referring to the boyfriend)
I used to have them. For a month or so I won’t. Then I will again.
Oh…
This entire thread is TMI. And here we’re reading it voluntarily.
I don’t know if anyone else does this, but every two or three days, I just stick one side of my facial razor in a nostril and, as gracefully as possible, swipe the interior of my nose with it. It’s worked pretty well so far now that I’m accustomed to it.
You mean, like, these things, right?
Um… not sure how that’s supposed to work, the angles seem all wrong. Care to elaborate?
Richard Richard and Eddie Hitler did it better:
Is it not just Instagram?
nose hair ripper-outer…? Get outta here with your confusing technical terminology, use normal words real people can understand, professor!!
