Humor: Nose hair

by Terry Gee

Nose hair is one of the body's first lines of defense against harmful environmental pathogens such as germs, fungus and spores .When a person inhales unfiltered air through his or her nose, he or she is also inhaling whatever solid particles are contained in that air.


You nose hair are there to trap those particles, so your lungs are provided with clean air. Not only dust gets trapped, but also dangerous things such as bacteria, germs and viruses. If your nose hair was not there you would suffer from allergies and other diseases caused by bacteria and viruses found in the air. It is therefore important that you breathe through your nose when you are in the polluted area.

As important as Nasal hairs are when it comes to filtering unwanted agents, they can become unsightly if left unchecked. Nose hair trimmers are one of the ways which can help you to trim the extra length of the hairs. These advanced technologies have also made it safe as well as easy to get rid of these hairs. A nose hair clipper is a personal grooming device used to trim excess hair in the nostrils.

Trimming nose hair is a part of everyday grooming for some people. Others find that they only have to worry about clipping nose hair once every few months. Trim visible nose hairs by carefully placing clipper in tip of nostril and squeezing arms of clipper together in tweezers-like motion. Nose hairs should be cut only short enough so they don't protrude from nose.


There are people who trim their nose hair on daily basis. Others do it not so often and some just once every few months. You should trim your nose hair by using clippers. Make sure that you cut only the visible part of your nose hair, as there rest should be there to clean the air you breathe in.

To properly trim your nose hair, you should use specially designed nose trimmers. Trimming your nose hair with mustache or beard trimmer will not give you the desired effect as they are not made to trim nose hair. To assure effectiveness you should use only nose hair clipper.

Removal by hand can be less painful, though acquiring a firm grip on a single hair may prove prohibitively difficult for some. Removing multiple hairs at the same time can be painful and irritating.

If you like to keep your nose hair properly trimmed, a nose hair clipper is a must have tool for you.
