The beauty industry has been lying to you. Not about skincare or whatever serum costs $400 and allegedly contains orchid tears harvested by monks who took a vow of silence about moisturizing. About something more fundamental.
Something growing right under your nose. Literally.
Your nose hair.
You’ve been treating it like the enemy—trimming, plucking, waxing with the enthusiasm of someone removing asbestos from a condemned building. But Big Razor played you for a fool.
Nose hair is IN now. These 15 styles will change everything.
1. The Classic Peek-a-Boo
For cowards. (Affectionate cowards.) About 2-3mm peeking out. Subtle. A whisper. Best for job interviews and establishing dominance at family dinners where your aunt won’t stop asking why you’re still single.
2. The Handlebar Mustache Extension
Mustaches are cowards too. They just STOP at your upper lip like there’s an invisible wall. What are they even afraid of?
The Handlebar Extension says no to arbitrary boundaries. Connect your mustache directly into your nostrils—one continuous superhighway of hair. Requires 6 months of growth, a curling iron the size of a cocktail straw, and the confidence of someone who has literally never felt embarrassed once in their entire life.
3. The Double Waterfall
No trimming. No shaping. No rules. No gods. No masters. Just gravity.
4. The Braided Beauty
| Braid Type | Smugness Level After |
|---|---|
| Simple 3-strand | Insufferable |
| French braid | Transcendent |
| Fishtail | God complex |
| Dutch braid | No survivors |
Seventeen people have died attempting the Dutch braid. (This is a joke. Mostly.) One sneeze and you start over, covered in tiny elastics, questioning every choice that led to this moment.
5. The One-Sided Wonder
Asymmetry is having a cultural moment, and your nostrils deserve to participate. Grow out just one side—doesn’t matter which. The point is everyone who sees you will feel slightly off-balance without knowing why.
You’ll know why. That mystery is your power now.
6. The Corporate Professional
Some of you have jobs. Condolences.
Hair cannot extend past the nostril during Zoom calls. Slight curl acceptable but must appear accidental. NO braiding during Q3 presentations. Light mousse on Casual Fridays only. You didn’t hear any of this here.
7. The Tusks
Here’s where things get ambitious.
Grow your nose hair so long it curls UPWARD. Defying gravity. Defying expectations. Defying the very concept of “appropriate grooming.”
The result: tiny tusks emerging from your face like a very small, very confused walrus who wandered into a Starbucks and is just trying to order an oat milk latte without making things weird for everyone.
“But won’t people think—”
Stop. Walruses survived ice ages. They fear nothing. They are apex predators of the frozen north. This is a compliment of the highest order and you will accept it graciously.
8. The Party in the Front, Business in the Back
Left nostril: dropped-out-of-art-school energy
Right nostril: has-a-401k-and-understands-compound-interest energy
The mullet of nose hair. Schrödinger’s grooming.
9. The Colored Chaos
Who said nose hair had to stay its natural color? Nobody worth listening to. Neon pink pairs beautifully with existential dread, silver gives wizard-who-made-questionable-choices energy, and rainbow gradient takes 14 micro-dye-jobs but zero regrets. Glow in the dark for clubs. Camouflage for hiding in bushes while still looking phenomenal.
10. The Jeweled Elegance
Tiny beads. Microscopic rhinestones. Thread them through your nose hair like decorating a very small, extremely moist Christmas tree that lives in your face. Your nose makes windchime sounds when you exhale now, and if that’s not the most magical sentence ever written, then magic simply does not exist.
11. The Wind-Swept Look
Go outside. Let nature decide. Accept whatever happens.
Some call this giving up. Those people lack vision.
12. The Twisted Sister
Two little corkscrews radiating pure “do not speak to me before coffee, or after coffee, or honestly ever” energy.
| Day | Task |
|---|---|
| Monday | Re-twist with industrial gel |
| Tuesday | Paranoid unraveling checks |
| Wednesday | Whispered encouragement |
| Thursday | Accept impermanence |
This style is for people with strong font opinions who share them unprompted at parties.
13. The Connected Kingdom
Philosophical territory here.
Grow your nose hair until the strands from each nostril finally meet in the middle, underneath your nose. A bridge. A tiny hairy handshake between two nostrils separated by the cruel architecture of your face since birth.
They’ve been neighbors their whole lives. Inches apart. Never touching.
A friendship bracelet for your nasal passages. Don’t you think they deserve to finally hold hands?
14. The Feathered Fantasy
Pure 1970s shampoo commercial energy. Your nostrils will look like they have an agent, summer in the Hamptons, and complain constantly about how crowded it’s gotten since everyone discovered it.
15. The Full Commitment
Stop trimming. Forever.
Let nature run feral. Months pass. Seasons change. Your nose hair eventually braids with your beard, your head hair, or just itself—one unified ecosystem flowing from scalp to nostril.
You become one with the hair. The hair becomes one with you.
You’re no longer a person with a nose hair style. You ARE the nose hair style. Congratulations. You made it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Won’t this look weird?
Everything looks weird until confident people do it. Crocs still look weird and people wear them to restaurants now. Reality is negotiable.
What if people laugh?
They’re laughing because your confidence triggers something they’ve suppressed their whole lives. You’re not being mocked. You’re being a mirror.
Is this hygienic?
We live on a wet rock hurtling through space at thousands of miles per hour and you’re worried about nose hair sanitation? Get some perspective.

Final Thoughts
Your nose hair is a canvas. Tiny, damp, deeply underappreciated.
Put down the trimmer. Cancel your appointment with that aesthetician who sighs every time she sees your nostrils like they’ve personally disappointed her.
Let those follicles breathe. The world is ready. Are you?
The Dutch braid remains dangerous. You’ve been warned.
