    Default Nose hairs

    Some work collegues and I were discussing nose hairs, as you do. I mentioned that I use a straight razor to trim my nose hairs. At first they thought I was joking, but then once the realised that I wan't joking and actuallly put a straight razor up my nostril for the purpose of trimming nose hairs they just thought I was crazy.

    Does anyone else here use their straight razor for trimming nose hairs? If so, what type of razor works best for that purpose? I find that a square point works best for me.

    LOL - I've heard some say that's a good use for the barber's notch on straights....

    Not I! A razor may fit, but who knows the landscape in there? An electric little trimmer for me or some scissors.
    Gonna stuff some lather in there too?

    Too hard to hold the nose out of the way, manipulate the razor AND operate the camera...Its all fun and games until someone loses an eye!

    I've used a Mimizori which is like 2/8 kamisori. Mimi is "ear in Japanese so they are used for ear hair trimming.

    I'd just as soon use a good pair of scissors.

    I employ several techniques, one of which is using a straight; ripping them out and flame from a bic lighter, funny but it works...

    I've used the lighter technique a few times, but it was alway side effect of trying to light very short left handed cigarettes
