There are several ways to remove nose hair at home, including trimming with scissors or a nose hair trimmer, and using nose hair removal wax. Here are some details on each method:
-
Scissors: Stand in front of a well-lit mirror and use small scissors to snip only the most visible hairs, such as those near the rim of your nostril and any large hairs that noticeably protrude from your nose. Trim only what you absolutely need to trim, as nose hairs serve as a defense system.
-
Nose hair trimmers: These are small scissors designed for nose hair and are useful for safely managing nose hair at home. They can be manual or electric and are designed to fit into a person’s nostril safely without damaging the sensitive tissues inside it. Electric nose hair trimmers have small, rotating cutting blades at one end, which sit inside a plastic or metal guard that stops them from contacting the skin. A person should be able to find both manual and electric nose hair trimmers at their local drugstore or pharmacy.
-
Nose hair removal wax: Nose wax kits are also available for removing nose hair at home. These kits contain natural ingredients, such as beeswax and aloe extracts, and are designed to remove hair from your nostrils in seconds, giving you a quick and efficient way to eliminate unwanted hair. Simply dip the applicator in warm wax, dip into the nostril, and pull out within two minutes. One kit contains enough quantity for 10 nose hair removals, which means reduced cost of hair waxing kits and less time shopping for them. However, this method may not be suitable for everyone and can be painful.
It is important to note that nose hair serves as a defense system and helps prevent potential allergens and other foreign objects from entering the nostrils. Therefore, it is recommended to only trim or remove the most visible hairs and not to trim away everything.
