A man can get rid of the hair protruding from his nose with an inexpensive nose and ear hair trimmer, which is sold at department stores and most drugstores.

Instructions

• 1

  Remove the cap from the battery compartment at the bottom of the nose hair trimmer.

• 2

  Insert a fresh battery of the appropriate type into the battery compartment. Replace the cap.

• 3

  Wash your hands with soap and water. Dry your hands with a hand towel. Wash your face with soap and water. Dry your face with a bath towel.

• 4

  Stand with your face close to the bathroom mirror so you can see your nose clearly. Press the button or slide the selector switch on the nose hair trimmer to turn it on.

• 5

  Insert the end of the trimmer with the rotating blade into the nostril that has the hair protruding from it. Do not push the trimmer further into your nose than the depth of the blade tip -- between a quarter-inch and a half-inch. You don't have to use force; the blades will do the work.

• 6

  Rotate the trimmer in a slow circular motion to cut the hair away. Remove the trimmer from your nostril after 10 seconds. Inspect the nostril to see if the hair is gone. Repeat the procedure with the trimmer if there is still hair you want to remove.

• 7

  Turn the trimmer off. Rinse the end of the trimmer in tap water and dry it. Wash your face with soap and water and dry it with a bath towel.
