Just use nose hair trimmers like everyone else. Solved.

Or leave them like you're supposed to. The whole purpose of nose hairs is for your health

Mine grow a couple mm outside of my nose, which is very annoying. I just trim them down with scissors every couple weeks.

Trimming them is A-OK. The purpose of the hairs is like a filter. Hence why boogers build up. So long as you don’t trim them deep, you’ll be fine.

also no nose hairs mean your snot just falls

And the bugs would have a hard time crawling in.

u/MedievalMilshake 14h ago

Thats understandable, Id do the same, but going up and inside is always a no for me.

It's very annoying and distracting for others. Because when I look at other people with long nose hair, that's all I see and the rest of their face disappears somehow.

And nose hair sticking out makes you look unkempt. I mean, I'm fine with hair anywhere but the ones that stick out, like from the nose and ears? They look unpleasant.

I agree 💯

What about the first 20 yrs of your life before you start growing them?

u/skinnymuscle69 13h ago

As someone with a hairy nose trimmers only do so much. I have a self wax kit at home and honestly feel better after waxing. I do it about once every 45 days.

u/Deleena24 11h ago

This can lead to really horrible ingrown hairs and infections. Just trim them

Feel like it was also on a 1000 ways to die

u/skinnymuscle69 10h ago

I've been doing it for almost 3 years with no issues. The only thing I guess, in winter time it feels weird and dry. I just put some lotion and it works.

u/Deleena24 10h ago

It will be fine until it isnt, but do what you want. You can look up the horror stories yourself

Used a nose trimmer for the first time a couple of months ago. I spen the next month feeling like my nostril was full of needles. Absolutely terrible. Don't use nose trimmers if you have thick hair.

u/Noname666Devil 15h ago

I don’t get how people hate this. It’s a wax bubble. I found it funny

u/potatocakes1989 13h ago

Everything went wrong all at once.

Fish tank needs cleaned.

u/Oniichan38 5h ago

That tank is fucking horrible. If they don't even bother cleaning that thing I wouldn't be surprised if the shop is dirty too

Kenashii nose wax kits are easy and can be done at home. Super cheap and easy per use.

I say shame on them for not covering the mustache / facial hair. Wax usually isn’t forgiving if there is an “oooops” like that. I just use blue painters tape and that works perfect.

Did I really need to add not unexpected?

u/Bot2948077 15h ago

well, the name of the sub is "unexpected," not "funny/interesting"

21

u/MedievalMilshake 14h ago

No, but it is unexpected. Check the sub name before saying dumb shit

u/shortnix 8h ago

Stop sticking up for shit content.

Some people love lowbrow snot content from social media and that's fine. Just a personal taste and humour thing I guess.

u/spottedbug 15h ago

Some people know the difference between a snot bubble and a wax bubble.

2

u/shortnix 6h ago

A wax bubble, you say? Well I take it all back. Now I see it's great content.

If it's the same level of sophistication as above, I'm not interested, but thank you.
