I used to wax. If you want to do it then be sure to get the stuff that's rock hard and doesn't require gauze or whatever voodoo they use on women's crotches. If it's hard in the pot (that you nuke to soften), that's the stuff. Blow your nose, wash your nose, dry your nose, make sure it's clean. Unclean when plucking is what causes mild infection. Use a qtip to apply talcum powder in there past where you propose to wax. Use another qtip to get the wax in. Smear liberally while twirling. Work it into the nooks but don't go deep into the nostril because it'll be a fucker to extract. Do it over the sink or paper towels because you're gonna drip as a newb. Hang around hoping no one sees you. When it's cooled and hard a minute or two later use tweezers to get under an edge and pry it out. It's a real piece of artwork and you'll be very proud of it.
Upside: Zero stubble. 100% effective.
Downside: It's a production, obviously, and it hurts. Also need to let enough grow back for the wax to get purchase on.
These days I just trim. I rounded the sharp point on some cheap small scissors and they work just fine. Gets closer than an electric would imo.
