Nose Hairs
Created | Updated Jan 28, 2002
Nose hairs, as the name would suggest, are the bristley little hairs that grow inside one's nose. These hairs help to filter dust and other nastiness from the air before it can get into the lungs and cause trouble. They also serve to embarrass their owners (especially males) by poking out of the nostrils and into the world. This is considered highly unattractive. There are really very few methods of dealing with overlong nose hair. The simplest method is a sharp, quick plucking, but to remove a nose hair in this fashion is quite excruciating, akin to the feeling of having an ice cube suddenly driven into your naval by an unseen assailant. And it'll make you sneeze, without fail. So be very careful when using tweezers for the plucking method. The other most accepted method is to use one of the variety of wonderous appliances designed for the specific purpose of trimming nose hair. The only problem is that this angers the nose hairs, which will quickly grow back with a vengeance anyway.
So in short, there are three paths to choose: painful removal, frequent upkeep, or just deal with it and be proud of who you are.
If you're going to be attending any social gatherings and would like to make a good impression, the third choice is probably not the best way to go.
