Are you worried about how to deal with the long nose hair?
Actually, your nose hair is there to help you. A thick barrier of hair keeps bugs, bacteria, and other foreign contaminants out of your airways while allowing air to flow unobstructed. Sometimes, however, it's just too much. There's nothing wrong with keeping your nose hair in check if it sprouts wildly and noticeably from your nostrils, but be careful not to remove too much hair lest you compromise your immune system.
Pluck or trim? This is a question.
Now, let’s learn how to tame the nose hair jungle!
TIP1. To know your nose hair jungle.
a.Thick: The inner surface of your nose has as many hair follicles as your head.
b.Menacing: Nose hairs are a menace to dust, pollen and other particles that could make their way into your lungs and cause trouble.
c.Sticky: Nose hairs have a thin coating of mucus.
d.Distracting: When you’re talking to someone with a single nose hair sticking out, it can be hard not to stare.
TIP2. Choose a suitable tool to trim your nose hair.
a.Scissors
Pros: more efficient and safer. Small enough to trim the hair you want without risking nicks and cuts as the ends are rounded for safety.
Cons: too big to trim hair inside the majority of the nose. Just clean between uses and pull out to groom other areas like the brows, mustache and outer ears.
b.Trimmers
Good for reaching inside and painless. A lot of the gadgets also are multi-tasking allowing for trimming of the ears, eyebrows, and nose, giving more bang for the buck.
c.Waxing
Pros: Long-last.
Cons: You have taken away most of your filter, and there is much more chance of irritation and ingrown hair. Painful! Maybe hurt your nasal cavity.

TIP3. Pluck it? Or trim it?
