Default Nosehairs

Does anyone use tweasers in their nose? I have tried this twice in the past month and I find it unbearable. It's not much pain, but my eyes start watering like crazy, my nose gets all runny, and afterwards I look as if I've been bawling uncontrollably for an hour, and that pisses me off since just five minutes before I had wiped my face clean after crying for an hour.

Well, maybe I just don't have the right one, but I have tried this and it just didn't work well enough.

I've tried a couple different models. The one they sell at Sharper Image had good RPM's and power. I have yet to find a good one for 10 bucks.

I'm old enough to have ear, eyebrow and nose hair that is naturally long enough to braid. That said, I don't want to look like Andy Rooney so over the years I've used many of these devices.

Old man's advice:

Don't get the circular type trimmers. My experience is they just don't work.

You can get good quality sissors with a blunt end but I agree they suck.

I bought a Remington "Titanium" rechargable trim kit a year ago at the evil Walmart a year ago and love it. This has heads for nose/ear (ears get hair when you age) along with a decent set of clippers for my neckline (I've used a Flowbee to cut the rest of my hair for fifteen years). Unfortunately my clipper doesn't show up when I used Google search - apparently Remington discontinued it. But the nose trimmer head is flat accross and looks something like this

BTW, I didn't realize plucking nose hairs is bad. I learn something new on 2+2 every day.

Right, the oscillating type is much better.

This one is simple and good.

Random question. Do nose hairs get worse as you grow older?

This is going to sound totally bizarre, but I enjoy that feeling.
