What age do you think is appropriate to get your nose pierced? Thank you!
***EDIT:***
-It can be a scary experience because your nose is always pierced with a needle. They don't use ear guns like they do on your ears. So it may or may not be scary to you. Some people don't like long needles, and some people have no problem with it.
-Apparently when you get your nose pierced, it hits some kind of nerve. (I didn't know this until I got it pierced.) This makes you feel dizzy, sick to your stomach, etc. You could also lose your hearing for a few minutes, but it comes back. This is also a sort of, "shock effect" on your body. Piercers advise you to drink a sugary drink after, like a Snapple, and you'll feel better. But please DON'T let me scare you with all these things. You may feel the side effects, but I do know people that didn't feel side effects at all. It is really not bad at all, and it's not dangerous. It's worth it.
Hope I helped.
I got my nose pierced when I was 13. It really depends on what kind of person you are. Getting your nose pierced is a scary experience. Many 13 and 14 year olds think that they will be able to handle it, they think it will be fine. But trust me, once you sit down in the piercing chair, you may change your mind. So truthfully, it is a very scary experience at first, and there are some slight physical side effects of getting your nose pierced. But once the piercing part is over, it's great, as long as you can take care of it. If a 13 or 14 year old plans on getting their nose pierced, they should be responsible enough to clean it twice a day, because it CAN get seriously infected if not treated properly in the first 3 healing months. After that, it is fine. So does age really matter? Not so much. Responsibility and maturity level? Yes, definitely.
(Rating: 5) Thank you but I have a couple questions. Why is it a scary experience and what are the physical side effects? Thanks.
