Now that you know what you are looking for in an ear and nose hair trimmer, the team at Groom+Style for art of shaving have collected a few that truly stand above the rest. Groom+Style have collected the best options from several categories, to ensure you find a trimmer that fits your unique needs.

Let’s follow our noses to find the top best five ear and nose hair trimmers on the market for January, 2024.

1. Philips NT5175/49 Norelco Nose trimmer 5100 (replaces model NT9130/40)

If you’ve come to the realization that it’s time to invest in a nose hair trimmer, it’s important to choose one that can handle various hair removal needs. That’s why it’s worth taking the time to research and find the best nose hair trimmers on the market. Look for trimmers that are specifically designed for nose and ear hair removal, with features such as rounded blades, protective guards, and easy-to-clean attachments. By choosing the right nose hair trimmer, you can make the process of hair removal as easy and painless as possible.

That’s what the Phillips Norelco 5100 does; it provides a comfortable and effective trim for both the ears and the nose, but it can also take care of unruly eyebrows and trim sideburns, neck hairs and stray beard hairs as well. Its real strength, though, is cleaning up the nose and ears.

You use the Nose Trimmer 5100 the same way you use most of these devices – with a “whisking” motion to remove unwanted hair. You insert the head of the unit into the orifice to be trimmed, make a couple of circles around the area, and – if the trimmer is a good one like the Norelco – you’re done.

The blade is made from sharp chromium steel and surrounded by a skin guard, to ensure that the hair is cut but your skin is not. One thing the review team particularly like about this unit is that it has a single blade powered by the motor, instead of rotary blades which don’t get as close to the skin.

The device runs on a single, lithium AA size battery (which is included!), and users can expect roughly 100 minutes of use out of the battery before it needs to be changed. The battery life is above average for such trimmers.

Groom+Style mentioned eyebrows and sideburns earlier, and special tools for them are included with the Norelco Nose Trimmer. There are two different eyebrow combs (one is 3mm for short eyebrows and the other is 5mm for longer eyebrows) which will let you get them nice and tidy. For the sideburns, neck and other areas which need a slight cleanup, there’s also a flat precision trimming head and detailing comb perfect for doing touchups.

The engineers at Philips also spared no expense when it came to design. This a handsome little nose trimmer. The rubberized grip looks great, and will also prevent the device from slipping from your hand, and the removable heads set it apart from other trimmers on the market.

2. Panasonic ER430K Ear & Nose Trimmer with Vacuum Cleaning System

Every one of us has had at least a few of those revelations that can best be described as a “Why didn’t I think of that?” moment.

The review team would guess that other grooming product manufacturers had that reaction when they saw this Panasonic model, which was the first nose and ear hair trimmer that vacuums up the clippings and collects it in a chamber as it works. After all, who wants to clean bits of hair out of their ears or nose after they’re done trimming?

The hypoallergenic, curved stainless steel blades (don’t worry, they’re protected by a safety cone so you won’t nick yourself) on the ER430K are shaped nicely to remove most of the hair from inside the nose and ears, but are carefully designed to leave a little hair behind so it can do the job its grown for: filtering out dirt.

In other words, the insides won’t be completely smooth, but they’re not supposed to be. The point of a trimmer is to make sure no hairs stick out where others can see them, and the Panasonic Trimmer does it perfectly.

You may find that you need to make several passes with the Panasonic to catch all of your problem hairs; that’s because this unit uses rotary blades instead of the single blade used on the competing Norelco. We didn’t find that to be a major drawback since it only takes a few extra seconds.

And the vacuum system which pulls the trimmed hairs into a collection chamber (instead of leaving them in your nose or ears) is a convenience which far outweighs the slight amount of extra trimming time.

The ER430K is compact and fully immersible, so you can use it in the shower and simply clean it under a faucet. It’s not specifically designed to be used on sideburns or neck hair, but it works just fine there as well.

2a. Panasonic ER-GN30-K Nose Ear & Hair Trimmer

If you like the look of the Pansonic nose and ear hair trimmer, but want to save a few dollars, then you can get the model without the vacuum option.

It is another high-quality product, with an easy to use ergonomic design, long battery life (AA Battery which is not included), and is waterproof so it can be used in the shower and easily cleaned under the tap.

3. Groom Mate Platinum XL Nose & Ear Hair Trimmer

Groom+Style weren’t quite sure what to think when we first saw that the Groom Mate didn’t have a battery – you have to power it yourself. On one hand, the thought of not having sharp, electric-powered blades spinning inside of our ears and nose was sort of comforting. On the other, we weren’t sure we wanted the responsibility of spinning those sharp blades by hand.

It turns out that there was nothing to worry about. All you have to do is insert the business end of the trimmer into your nose or ear, and softly twist the bottom of the unit back and forth.

The rotary blades will gently and painlessly trim the hairs they come in contact with, without nicking or scratching your skin. You end up feeling in total control of your trim, able to move as deeply into the nose or ear cavity as you wish while knowing the blades will ease to a halt as soon as you stop twisting.

The Platinum XL doesn’t have a vacuum system like the Panasonic, of course, but it does use gravity to pull the clippings into the trimmer’s barrel. You can either brush them out after that or run the unit under water to clean it out completely; this model is made completely from stainless steel so it won’t rust, even if you use it in the shower.

It’s also exceptionally small, so you can just slip it into a pocket and carry it wherever you’re headed. The blades are guaranteed to never dull, and the entire trimmer is backed by an unconditional lifetime warranty.

As it does not use any batteries it will never run out of juice, and you’ll never get yourself caught without being able to trim your nose or ears. It is an efficient and easy to carry the device, which should be enough for most users.

The Groom Mate’s all-steel look may not make it the most beautiful trimmer Groom+Style have reviewed, and it’s not really meant to be put anywhere except your nose or ears – but it may be the most convenient and functional of all that made our rankings.

3a. KEDSUM Professional Portable Manual Nose & Ear Hair Trimmer

When you like the idea of a mechanically operated nose and ear hair trimmer but want some alternatives, then you can also consider the KEDSUM trimmer.  It is made from stainless steel so it will last a long time and can be easily cleaned under the tap.

The KEDSUM works slightly differently to the Groom Mate – it has handles that you squeeze which in turn to rotate the sharp interior blades.  It is sold in a nice metal box and comes complete with a brush and a fingernail clipper.

4. ToiletTree Heavy Duty Steel Nose Trimmer With LED Light

Here’s another entry from the “Why didn’t we think of that?” category. The ToiletTree is a quality nose trimmer with a built-in, bright LED light that lets you see exactly what and where you’re cutting.

It’s sturdy, with a strong steel housing as well as stainless steel rotary blades, and it’s water-resistant so you can use it to do touchups in the shower and then run it under a faucet for easy cleaning.

The Groom+Style team liked the fact that the ToiletTree model worked quickly and painlessly, as well as the fact that it’s quite reasonably priced. This is not the most powerful trimmer we’ve found, probably because (like many others) it runs on a single, standard AA battery. However, it fits nicely in the hand, it can also be used to trim beards, eyebrows and ear hair, and it comes with a lifetime replacement warranty.

5. Sportsman USB Nose Hair Trimmer

For those who hate swapping out batteries or those who travel a lot, this Sportsman nose trimmer is a find. It operates on a built-in 350 mAh lithium-ion battery that can be recharged via the USB port on your laptop or any other device. A charge will last for 30 days with daily use, and recharging takes eight hours or less.

As for the trimmer itself, it performs well. The curved stainless steel blades cut nicely without pulling hairs, and they move faster than most other nose hair trimmers you’ll find. You can also use the Sportsman to trim your beard, sideburns, ear, and eyebrows, and there are separate attachments for most of those functions.

Why is it ranked down here at #5? It’s a few bucks more expensive than most of its competitors yet not quite as sturdy, and even though it’s billed as “waterproof” only the blades are actually waterproof, not the body.

Andis Fast Trim Personal Trimmer for Nose, Ears, and Eyebrows (13430)

When you picture a nose and ear hair trimmer, you’re probably visualizing the Andis Fast Trim: a thin, round silver tool with a small rotary implement at one end. That means this trimmer doesn’t do anything except trim ears and noses – but it does that just fine, for only eight bucks.

While some manufacturers may label their trimmers as suitable for shaping eyebrows, it’s important to be cautious when using a brow trimmer. Some handheld rotary blades may be difficult to control, making it challenging to do precise work on the eyebrows. In fact, some review teams have found that these types of trimmers may be more likely to accidentally remove chunks of eyebrow hair than to create a clean and precise shape. Therefore, it’s important to choose a brow trimmer carefully, and to exercise caution when using it to avoid any unwanted mishaps.

The Fast Trim runs on a single AA battery which powers the rotary cutting blades. They’re recessed inside the end of the trimmer so they don’t actually come in contact with the inside of your ears or nose.

They simply trim the excess hair quickly and efficiently. The cutting blades are made from rustproof, surgical stainless steel so they can be rinsed off under the faucet, although the unit itself is not considered waterproof by the Andis trimmer.

Remington MPT-3600 Dual Blade Pen Trimmer

None of the multi-function trimmers on this list are expensive. But if you don’t want to lay out that much cash for a model which will take care of your nose and ears as well as other areas, here’s an option for half the price.

The Remington MPT-3600 was primarily created to do quick touch-up work on eyebrows, neck hair, and sideburns, but also comes with a fine detail trimmer head which is designed for the removal of ear and nose hair.

There are two titanium-coated, hypoallergenic blades on the Remington Pen Trimmer, and rather than rotate around the inside of your nose or ear, these blades simply clip the hairs. That means you have to be a bit more careful when doing your work, but you won’t have to worry about the rotary blades spinning around and cutting off the hair that should be left inside to filter out dirt.

The Remington also functions as a trimmer for sideburns, mustaches and other facial hair, of course, since that’s what it was created to do. The two-position head on the unit comes in handy for those cleanup chores, and there are two combs supplied as attachments which ensure that the hair is trimmed to a specific length.
