Okay, if you can remove them yourself, I won’t suggest how to do so. If you keep getting them, there can be two reasons that I can think of helping you with. The first one seems easy, but don't under estimate it. You need to wash _NOT SCRUB_ your face two times a day (Morning and Night). I don't know if you are a girl or guy but regardless, this is a good place to start. If you use too many of those harsh scrubs you will only invite more blackheads and pimples to the party. If you have grainy skin, drink more water, wash 2x a day with gentle cleanser and, maybe 1 x a week use a gentle exfoliate.
Don't use water that is too warm when washing your face. Warm water is good for opening pores and getting gunk out, yes, BUT, if you use water that is too warm your pores will have a more difficult and longer time closing. This just makes it easier to trap dirt and form black heads. After washing your face, try splashing it with cold water (cool if you can’t stand cold). This will help close the pores.
You may also just have big pores. If that's true, no big drama there! Washing the way I've advised will help limit dirt being trapped and thus limit black heads. You can also try the cold water as longer than a splash. This will help tighten your pores, but the extent really depends on how big they are to begin with. Steaming your face with salt water or regular water and then following up with the cold water is also very effective.
Oh, almost forgot, if you use a particular soap or makeup, try changing it. That may help too ^_^

Blackheads not only appear on the face, but on the back, chest and other areas that are rich in sebaceous glands.
Blackhead extraction is a professional job and it should be left to people who know exactly know how to do it.
Never pick at them. Tampering with the skin by forcing blackheads out brutally can damage the skin tissue by destroying the inner layer. The counter part of the blackhead is the whitehead, which is also caused by collection of sebum in the pores, but in this case the pores are not open and the sebum is not exposed to the air.
Effective methods for removing Blackheads:
It is most important to keep the skin scrupulously clean.
1. Use an oatmeal or almond mask thoroughly to cleanse your face. Mix either oatmeal or almond powder with enough rose water to make a soft paste that spreads easily on the skin. Rub it on your skin with your fingertips, paying special attention the problem areas. Leave to dry for about 15 minutes and then rinse off with cold water.
2. Apply undiluted lemon juice, two to three times a day, on the affected areas.
3. A solution made out of one and a half cups of hot water and half a tablespoon of boric powder is an ideal concoction for blackheads, Saturate a face napkin in this hot solution and press on to the skin, repeat twice. Extract blackheads carefully with a blackhead remover and sterilized cotton wool. Pat on an astringent.
4. Warm a little honey and apply on the trouble spots. Wash off after 10-15 minutes.
Try out these home remedies for cleaning out your blackheads yourself or get in touch with a qualified beautician.

Until you decrease the production of oil for blackheas is actually oil produced in the pore and when air hits tuns black----can use either of these or switch. Can use Witch Hazel-preferably the kind with NO alcohol-found at Health food stores and sometimes Kroger approx from 2-8 dollars but is a natural astringent for the skin and will control oil output and threfore black and white heads. I do this as the last step in the AM after I wash face I use cotton swab and dab onto face. In the PM I will use sev times but you should daily until gone. Take BROWN VINEGAR-where mineral and vitamins not processed out as in white--dilute with a little bit 2 Tablespoons of Brown Vinegar dilute with warm 1/2 teaspoon water and dab on face and you should concentrate nose-try straight vinegar on nose-no water- should not irritate but is acidic. The vinear will regulate oil and retun skin to normal PH---the brown vinegar 2 tablespoons diluted in 1 cup warm water is great for hair pour and leave on. smell goes away in 10-15 minutes. You can also go to a DERMATOLOGIST and get Retina A but expensive approx $100.but lasts for months-not covered by insurance but great for skin problems. Do not pick the blackheads for can eventually leave scars. You can go to a ESTHETICIAN -who can remove .But do the Vinegar first with the Witch Hazel-should see some improvement in a week to 10 days.

try scrubbing your nose with just good regular soap on a regular basis then wipe you face with witch hazel, black heads are usuaally the result of small dirt particles getting trapped in your pores. So the Soap will take care of the dirt particles and the witch hazel is good for drying oil in you skin without drying your skin itself

They have black head removing strips, like on the commercial, it hurts, cause it is ripping things off your face, but it works, or what i have done, it sounds weird but i turn on the hot water, bend over stick my face in the steam, and put a towel over my head so the steam doesnt escape, and then i have a bowl of water with ice water right next to me, and i have my face in the steam with water running for about 10 min, and then i quickly splash the ice water on my face. and it works, the steam opens your pores and the ice snaps them shut leaving the oil and dirt out of your face.
