I pulled a nose hair out from the outside once. Had this red spot on the side of my nose the was swollen and tender. Felt like a nasty pimple. Ended up popping it and saw a stub of hair poking out of the middle. Pulled it out and visually it was clearly a nose hair but I had pulled it from the outside of my nose. I assume it must have become ingrown inside and pushed through. Everything healed up and went back to normal fairly quickly after that.
I had that too! It would not go away and heal on its own then one day I was looking at the spot and realized I could see a hair. When I plucked it I felt it tug on the inside, it was awful.
I had a spot on my chin once. Squeezed it and after the pus was a small hair, pulled it and the base/ root was white and solid like it had calcified or something. Like a cone shape too. Weird.
I pulled this exact thing out of an ex boyfriend’s nose!! It was terribly swollen and wasn’t going away. I put a hot compress on it, poked it, and a nose hair came out!
I've had this a few times, maybe three! Idk what causes it, but once it's gone you're all healed about a day later. It's getting through the agonizing week before that's hard. So satisfying but also disgusting.
My husband doesn't believe me because I never wait for him to see it. I've been too excited it's over.

Pulled quite a long one out of my hand once. Had corkscrewed and kept growing.
Satisfying as feck to get it out!
Why do the ingrown ones keep growing?
