If yes, how?
Amazon sell devices but I'd like recommendations first please.

I shove a bit of sensitive veet up there when I am doing my upper lip. It is utterly fascinating what comes out.

I use tweezers it doesnt hurt

I've trimmed mine with nail scissors before . I'd be wary of removing too much as nostril hair has the function of keeping unwanted particles and such out of your nose.
I always wonder if people with tufty nostrils suffer with fewer allergies or colds due to this.

I just pull mine out - I don’t get many.

Why mine hurts so much?!

I’m completely fine with tweezers and wax anywhere else but my nostrils are hyper sensitive

I use the scissors I used to use to cut the children's nails when they were little, so blunt at the end. I only trim what is ahem 'hanging down' not inside because they perform an important function. But I can't bear seeing them poking out

Veet sensitive. Up with a cotton bud - not all the way up though. Leave for about 90 seconds and then a face wipe to get it out.

I'm not brave enough but I've seen wax on a stick in boots for this

everythinglooksbetterpaintedblack · 03/03/2024 13:31

I use one of those battery powered ear & nose trimmers

Beepboops · 03/03/2024 14:17

Second the veet sensitive. Just put it to where I can still see it and leave it for a 2 minutes. Then wipe with wet cotton buds.

I wax it, it is amazing what comes off. I don't shove it right up, just around the opening
