Nose hairs

[waltekar]

I had an operation about 11 years ago and since then I have had to remove the hairs that keep growing with both an electric hair remover and tweezers. The hairs are becoming thicker and bristlier. Is there anything I can do to slow the growth? Would bikini line hair remover work or would it make my eyes water!

I am a female and use a Nasal spray daily as I suffer from Rhinitis.

don't use wax in your nose...!

Nasal hair is a curse of growing older - whether down to your op or not. Removing those hairs actually makes your rhinitis worse. I'd suggest just trimming insde the nostril, just so that they aren't visible.

From 'bikini line hair remover' Im assuming you mean a depillatory cream? I think you can get a facial one but you would have to read its precautions. The cream would certainly make the hair grow in softer, but Im sure its not recommended for use on mucous membranes. Have you considered laser hair removal?

Whickerman is right, my wife insisted that I cut my unsighly nose hair and since then I have had terrible dryness and lots more to pick, (quite enjoyable), so they will not be cut again, but def. trimmed only.

Thanks everyone, guess I'll just keep trimming, but will make enquiries about laser hair removal.
