Please ONLY answer this question if you're a piercer or if you've had your nose pierced!!

I'm getting my nose pierced next weekend. You can choose whether you'd rather have the L-shaped nose stud thing, or the one that's like, got an actual "backing" or whatever.

Which is better? Meaning, which is less likely to fall out or get pulled out by my 3-year-old sister?

Also, how much is this going to hurt?

The L-shaped stud will be more comfortable. The actual backing stud will be way more difficult, but I'm thinking it is less likely to fall out. I would still go for the L-shaped. It's what I have, and I don't have any problems.

Now, about the amount of pain. It honestly didn't hurt me too badly. You have a needle going through your body, of course you are going to feel it. I would compare it to someone pinching you, but the pain is only for a split second. It throbs a bit after, but doesn't really hurt. I got my left nostril done, and my left eye watered, but that's a typical reaction, not because I was crying. It's nothing too bad though.

Good Luck =)
