Twice a week???

Are you the Graffalo?

Why so rude?

You can buy a kit to wax at home. I tried it once OWWwww

I shove a wee bit of veet up there while I’m doing my upper lip.

Please please can someone explain this.

Are you all removing hair because they are protuding from your nostrils? Or are you just removing the hidden hairs in case someone you fancy happens to look up your nose with a torch?

I've never plucked or trimmed my nose hairs. I don't have any protruding hairs, just a few dark hidden ones up there. Am I really meant to be removing those? It's so dark up there, surely no one can see them?

You need the hairs in your nose. They trap infection. Only remove protruding ones.

I have one hairy nostril with protruding hairs so I remove those hairs (nothing inside).

I used a wax strip and it worked well! First time I did it was last week, will see how long it lasts. I'm definitely hairier on my right!

I actually get my nose hairs waxed, whilst agreeing you shouldn’t really remove them at all because they catch nose dribbles and debris coming into the nose. Blush

Campervangirl · 23/01/2023 06:49

Yep or I'd be tripping over it 😁
I use nasal hair trimmers and I also use an epilator on my top lip and pluck my chin hairs, now you know all my secrets 😂

Campervangirl · 23/01/2023 06:51

Btw I one used hair removal cream, applied it up my nose with a cotton bud, DONT DO THIS, it burns for days! 😜

Nads nose wax. Comes with a little microwaveable pot and rounded applicators, which you shove up your nose, leave for 30s and remove.

The applicator comes out looking and feeling like a bristly hedgehog.

I have never noticed a woman with nose hair, so either;

A) Women don't really get nose hair.

B) Women do get nose hair, and those that do remove it so well, it's unnoticeable.

I'm going A.

No-one notices your nose-hair.

It's not a thing.

I've sometimes wondered this myself. DW of 25 years never appears to have nose hair. I've seen her do pretty much everything else in that time but never, ever have I seen her take tweezers to her nose.....

primeoflife · 23/01/2023 08:21

@Iloveabaconbutty mine has just crept up on me (and as I've said only one nostril)

It can be a thing and these hairs were very noticeable. I feel so much better now they are removed!

MikeWozniaksMoustache · 23/01/2023 08:29

I notice it. I trim for myself.

And trim only at the front. No plucking or waxing. You can introduce infection through waxing. Your nose is a dirty place, plus those little hairs help trap dirt etc, I’d rather keep them just under control.

cooldarkroom · 23/01/2023 08:30

Surely its an age thing.
I never used to have black nostril hairs protruding, or on my top lip
It also it's probably aggravated by diminishing eye site, so when I'm looking in my x10 mirror the hairs & unfortunately, other faults are magnified !

Please don't tell me style + beauty is having a spill over of AIBU bitches

Hahah please, S&B is one of the most bitchy boards on MN. If you even dare hint at being alternative you’ll be slagged off to high heaven.

It didn't use to be, it was a lovely little corner of MN. AIBU has spilled into everywhere now.

It's times like this in glad I'm not a hairy person. It was painful enough getting zits at the bottom of my nostril when I was younger. Although if I was he died I might have proper eyebrows.

Hellibore · 23/01/2023 19:20

Hairy nose John 🤣🤣🤣
