Popping blackheads?

i recently asked a question about how to get rid of blackheads. I got a lot of answers telling me to pop the blackheads but i dont know what to do. Does anyone know what popping blackheads is and if so how to do it?Popping blackheads?
Open the pores with either a hot wash cloth or standing over a pot of boiling water so the steam can open your pores. Then wash your face with a good cleanser, oil free if you tend to have oily skin. Now when you pop them, take your two index finger and face them at each other, much like what you do when trying to get a splinter out. Do this on the outside of the blackhead(s) that you want to pop until the oil and dirt comes out. Wipe them away with an astringent, Sea Breeze makes a really good ones. When you're all done, wash your face again with a mild cleanser to cleanse away any excess oil and dirt that may have spread while trying to pop them, splash your face with cold water to close up your pores and you're done.





It will not cause any scarring, but it will cause some redness that usually subsides within 24 hours. And Fruit Cake Lady is absolutely right. Not popping pimples (not blackhead) WILL cause scarring. One of my uncles is living proof of this as he never popped a pimple in his life and his face is permanantly pitted now. They say don't pop only so you can buy their product so they can profit.Popping blackheads?
if u dont want to squeeze them with ur fingernails if u ge 2 cotton buds and then push on either side of the blackhead that works as well
I just use blackhead wash to treat them. then usually mine go away in 2-5 days.
Squeeze 'em till the black stuff comes out :)
Popping them means you squeeze them between your finger nails until the hard oils come out. When it bleeds a tiny bit, you should have it all out. Drs will tell you not to squeeze them, but when they get bad, that is what they do for a fee. The people with acne scars are generally the one's who never squeezed their zits.
You just squeeze the blackead until the 'stuff' come out.


I've heard this not a good thing to do, but I think lots of people do it.
just treat it like a pimple. there is a lot of dirt and stuff down in there so you have to squeeze your skin to get it out. just try to do it as if you were popping a pimple.
Just squeeze them like you would any pimple. However keep in mind that you'll end up with a red mark and possibly a scar. Get a bowl of hot water, put a towel over your head, and put your face over the bowl so the steam can go into your pores. This will open your pores so you don't have to squeeze so much.
all u have to do is put ur figers on both sieds of the blackhead and squeeze......is it that hard to do?????....u gotta be kidding me.
Use the pads of your fingertips to squeeze. Every day,should rub a warm washcloth on the area to get some of the protruding goo off. If you are a girl then you can ';spackle'; with a concealer or a good foundation. Every so often I use Biore Blackhead strips and they work HALF the time. So this is what I do.
