Did you pick your nose? Did you stop picking your nose?

How did you do it?

    Do children not have nose hairs? That seems off, I thought only people with certain alopecias were the only ones without nose hair

      I think they mean the kind that stick out of your nose. I didn’t get those until long after my childhood ended.

      I never had nose hair that bothered me until my mid 30’s. I think that may be what they mean. I now trim all the time. Otherwise, my nose gets super itchy. I also have no idea how people pull them… hurts so much.

        Ah, gotcha. But I definitely read an IAMA on Reddit once of someone with universalis and they lamented the fact they dont have them, wishing they did

          it oddly grew super long during the pandemic, with mask wearing, im guessing it was preventing sneezing, which would dislodged hairs occasionally, the sneeze is forceful enough to rip the hairs off, also plus AA weakens the follicle.
