Both sexes may deal with excessive or obvious nose hair, but in general the problem is more male oriented. Long hair sprouting from anywhere it's not supposed to, can be off putting to those looking at it. With that said, there's a proper way to trim hair nose.
Although some might believe it's best to completely remove all nose hair, but that's not correct. Some hair is essential for filtering out environmental toxins such as dust and dirt. Without nose hairs, any particles not filtered out may irritate the inside of the nasal cavity or travel to your lungs and cause all kinds of trouble.
The other danger with attempting to remove all existing nose hairs is the danger of injecting sharp blades or similar objects into the nasal cavity.
Aggressive trimming can actually cause little nicks to the tissue inside the nose. These little nicks can eventually transition into sores or pimples. In some cases nicked nasal cavities can become inflamed or infected with bacteria. Worst case scenario, an infected pimple or sore can develop into an abscess.
