Alright I'm probably on the wrong board for this question, but the girl says she's never had one before so she has no idea how to do it, so I'm looking for alternative help. I got my first ever blackhead like 3 weeks ago, it's a gooder. I dont mean those tiny, tiny ones that you get on your nose sometimes, this one's a doozy. It's the size of a small pimple, it's the certified real deal. At first I figured I'd just keep my face clean, and eventually it'd take care of itself. But here we are three weeks later, and it hasn't shrunk at all. So how in the blue hell do I go about gettin this badboy off my nose?
I searched Google and from all accounts it sounds like you need to stay the hell away from trying to pop it, as it can cause permanent damage to your skin. A girl I know told me thats over-paranoid crap, she says just give er. I dont know if I completely trust her though, so before I go buck on tryin to pop this thing, can anyone clarify exactly what I should do(outside from having to wait two months to see a damn dermatologist, I want this thing off my face!)
The girl is right. You HAVE to get it out, or it will just get bigger and bigger and will leave a huge crater in your face. Squeeze it out. To make it easy, take the inside of a pen out, and push that tiny hole of the end of the pen (not the pointy side with the ink!) and it will come right out. You can buy commodone extractors but the type you get in the drugstore does not work. You have to get one from an esthetician.

Awesome, thanks for the help! Ya I had heard something about using a pen before, I remember that from my greasy teenage years(but never had to do it). I'm gonna try that right now.
Done and done! Just popped er, there was nothin to it! Takes a little longer than your average zit from back in the day, but nonetheless its off my face and in the past.
And Dion, ya I just discovered the tail when I did it. Wasn't anything close to the thing that came out of buddy's face in that vid, but there was a little bit of one which had me pretty confused. Kinda disgusting.

Hahaha. I got my share of acne back in high school, so popping zits is not foreign to me. I'll never forget this zit I had just below my sideburn that was enormous. One day I popped the f'r and it was the weirdest thing: the white thing inside blew out onto my bathroom mirror and it was pretty big, but the hole didn't bleed at all. It was like the thing never existed. I popped it and it was gone. No tiny little zit scab, no red mark... Nothing. Except the goddamn blob on the mirror. Lol.
Weirdest zit popping for me was when I got high sticked in the face. The guy hit my zit with his stick and it popped best part was I drew a double minor as well! It was a light tap but damn it felt good to have it popped.
I loved the sound when you pop it too, it makes a slight bubblewrap popping noise. Worst place for a zit was on my back, Could not sleep on it for about a week.
