KENASHII Nose Wax Kit | 100 g Wax, 24 Applicators | Hair Removal Kit for Men and Women | Includes Balm Wipes and Mustache Guards | Lasts up to 5 Weeks

An amazingly effective product with an unusual, comical approach.
As I’ve been getting older (argh) I’ve noticed that I’m getting more nose hair than usual. This has been really bothersome, and at first I bought one of those electronic nose hair trimmers. It… kind of helped. It made the nose hairs shorter, when it got them, which wasn’t often enough for my liking.So, then, I decided to buy some nose hair wax. I thought the box for this one looked amusing, and it had good reviews… so I gave it a shot, and I’m sure glad that I did.Kenashii provides everything you need: The cup-o-wax (don’t forget to nuke it on 50% power, y’all), the sticks, some “post-waxing balm wipes,” the gently adhesive mustache covers, the cotton bag, and the instructions.So, you put the mustache covers over any whiskers you may have under the nasal openings, nuke the wax, get some on the sticks, try not to get it too early when it’s running all over the place (you’ll learn), and then shove that up your nose for a couple of minutes. All of this part is super-easy.Then… you yank the suckers out. Does it hurt? Surprisingly, no. I mean, it’s not joyously comfortable, but if you’re thinking “ripping out nose hairs has got to hurt like crazy” — it doesn’t! Once that wax has set in and you pull those sticks down, it’s an odd feeling, but not bad at all!And are they effective? I’m not going to share photos, but holy poo, yes they are. The first time I tried it, just from looking into my nostrils in the mirror, I figured I’d be pulling out maybe eight or ten hairs per nostril. Oh, I was so mistaken. I regularly pull out at least two dozen hairs PER NOSTRIL. That’s not an exaggeration. You have to make sure and position the wax correctly (especially getting those patches of hair immediately over the nostril openings), but if you do so, this thing pulls out a FASCINATING amount of hair. Want to do it a second time? Go for it. I have before. But, then again, apparently the amount of hair in my nose is akin to what I’d have if I had snorted an entire Gene Shalit.Plus – not to be gross, but I want to add that looking at the hairs once they’re pulled out is one of the most oddly satisfying feelings out there. If you’re doing this and you feel like you didn’t pull out nearly enough hair, look at them closely with a DARK background. My nose hairs are about 20-25% dark and 75-80% light.Once you rip them out, use one of those post-waxing balm wipes. But make sure to only use them around the external skin around your nostril, because if you shove them up your nose, who knows what could happen? Well, I’m a Thrillseeker™ and I HAVE shoved them up my nose to see what would happen. I lived to tell the tale. Seriously… is there anyone who’s going to use these “balm wipes” and NOT try shoving them up where their hair forest used to reside? I think that Kenashii very likely put “external use only” on those wipes for strictly legal reasons.So, you might be thinking, “But… what about other brands? Don’t they all do the same thing?” NO. Once, in a pinch when Kenashii was sold out (and I’d misplaced my kit!), I tried another brand whose name rhymed with “Choke-Ear.” The sticks were not as effectively-shaped (yep, it made a difference), and even the way that I had to melt the wax in the microwave was different. That stuff didn’t do nearly as good of a job as the Kenashii. So, I bought the Kenashii again once it was back in stock. I’m on my third Kenashii kit, and I hope the company stays around forever so that I can keep buying and using these things until I’m eventually horizontal in a box.I also want to mention a couple more items: The instructions and the cloth bag. If you want a chuckle, READ those instructions!! The people behind Kenashii put a lot of effort into making their manual one of the most humorous manuals you’ll ever read. It’s great to find a company who can see the humor in their product, while actually making a REALLY great product.And that bag… well… um… I don’t use it for the Kenashii stuff. I’ve now got three cloth bags. They’re good for whatever you’d want to use cloth bags for. Marbles? Sure. A big bunch of Werther’s Originals? I presume. Smallish adult toys? Yes, indeedy! Pogs? Go for it… I won’t judge.NO, Kenashii didn’t send me a freebie for review. They didn’t have to. I bought the product, I loved the product, and after buying and loving it two more times, I wanted to share my praise with the world for a product whose sole focus is to rip the hair out of my nasal cavities.Oh… what’s that? I can use it on my ears, too? I plan on doing so SOON. If the experience is half as joyful and successful as when I use Kenashii on my nose, then I’ll still be thrilled.So… if you’re facing the fact that you’ve got a lot of gross hair hanging out in the front lobby of your sinuses, get the Kenashii. Use as directed. Except, of course, for those balm wipes. (Disclaimer: I accept zero responsibility if anything bad happens if you misuse the balm wipes.)

Does exactly as advertised, let the picture speak for the results!
What else is there to say? These do exactly what they say they will do!I have always had a huge schnoz with the Rapunzel style of nose hairs, and I kept them trimmed with an electric nose hair trimmer which works, okay… But I had heard about getting this done at a salon, but screw that, why not do it myself?The instructions on this are pretty funny to read and are actually written in proper English, so this is actually a good quality product from a Japanese company and not some “online market place” special.Be warned, it does hurt a tad bit for a moment, and don’t forget to pinch your nose near the top to keep it nice and tight before you yank the hairs out. It’s gonna be tender for about a day after the first time you do it, but man, it feels SOOOOO good to be completely rid of all of those bushy hairs!

Surprised
Surprisingly wasn’t painful!…until I got cocky.I know myself, if I got a spring based contraption I’d insert it and not pull. I needed to force myself to commit, a point of no return so to speak. Warming up the wax and using it wasn’t an issue. Never waxed before and it was pretty obvious what ‘still too cold’ and ‘too hot’ was. First time I pulled it slipped on the plastic but it didn’t hurt. I was like, “huh, didn’t expect that”, so I lifted up the skin around the nose, yanked and boom! No pain at all. Switched to the other side and same. Quick, easy, painless. Here’s where I messed up.Use the mustache protector!!! I saw some left over hairs on the inner side so I figured I’d do it again. Heck, first time waxing I gotta apply it twice but these hairs have been growing for 37 years. Applied, inserted, waited two minutes, yanked, and the eyes teared right up. It’s not the inner nose that’s uncomfortable, it’s the very, very top of the mustache area. Yank a hair right now and see, it’s like those hairs are attached to your eye balls!So my recommendation is absolutely buy this, no pain so long as you heed my advice and use the mustache protector.

Middle age is apparently juicing my nose hairs with steroids for some reason. If I cut them they grow back thick like tree stumps until they stab the opposite wall of the nostril. So I end up just pinching them out with my fingers 🤌 whenever they get itchy/tickly (which is constantly) and they often come out embedded in a harder booger that take a few hair buddies out along with it. So I got fed up with all this and went scorched earth on it and it. Now it feels like the Dr Evil shaved balls monologue except in my nose. By comparison it’s like suddenly not having a small hedgehog 🦔 or urchin shoved up your nose.Two tugs each to get them out. The instructions said to tear them out with the heart of a warrior and so that’s what I did. The wax turns into this solidified rubber/glue like solid that will grab EVERYTHING so watch out. Shave your face if you don’t want to lose your lip stubble under your nose.Top notch product. Highly approve.
