    The nose is a the most sensitive area on the face. Any stress to the nostrils like plucking hairs will cause either pain, watery eyes or irritation, like sneezing. I pluck myself sometimes so I am answering from experience...yes I sneeze too in the process! I have consulted others and they experience the same. I cant provide a link with this answer as I couldnt find a site that details exactly why the sneezing occurs.

    If its a problem then I suggest you just trim nose hair instead of plucking!
