I use a plucking technique that is way less painful: try to get pinch the hair and do circular motions while you pull a bit. It may take some time but it is waaay less painful. Give it a try, and if you didn't understand the steps I prescribed, I will make a tutorial for you.

I understand, but I still kind of want to see a nose hair removal tutorial.

Will deliver when I get home from work.

Plucking nose hairs is actually extremely risky because there are a lot of nerves in that area. It is frowned upon to pluck that area due to the risk of causing nerve damage to the area. It's recommended that you use a trimmer instead.

I would welcome a little nerve damage, it would make plucking a lot easier!

How in the world do you actually get all the hairs using a trimmer? I always miss a few.
Plucking nosehairs is so terrifying and horrible because occasionally I get one that looks like it might be gray or white and in my vanity I freak out that I'm getting older when really it just might be blonde (I tell myself) and I will never be old. Then I don't pluck nosehairs until it looks like a daddy longlegs is trying to crawl out of my nostrils.

If it's (a) longer hair(s), I'll try scissors, but I don't actually own a nose hair trimmer, so that might be my first mistake. I generally only pluck them when they, how eloquently you put it, look like a daddy longlegs trying to crawl out of my nostril (i.e. when they're exiting the nose).

@BigSwami said it all: tons of nerves and arteries and sensitive cells.

I guess that explains why plucking the hairs causes sneezing and mucous production.
