Is plucking your nose hairs safe ? i used a micro touch nose trimmer and it itched for 3 days.so now i just pluck them

Not safe: when you pluck nose hairs, the risk of infection of the follicle becomes more. If an infection does occur, due to the proximity to the sinuses and the cranial space, if the infection spreads to the cranial area, it can become extremely serious. try to only trim them
