I have my nose pierced. It's an 18 gauge piercing. (Standard size for nose piercings.) So obviously, a nose ring is thicker than an earring.
I have been looking for a nose hoop for a long time. I finally found an earring hoop that fits in my nose really well. The only problem is, that the hoop is not 18 gauge. (Meaning the hoop is thinner than the usual nose rings I wear.)
So I was wondering:
How fast does a nose piercing close up?
Would it be okay if I wore the thinner nose hoop for about 8 hours?
(After school, I will put in the regular, thicker nose ring.)
Do you think my piercing could close up a lot in 8 hours?
Thanks in advance, and please ONLY answer if you have your nose pierced and know what you're talking about. I don't care if your sister or your friend has theirs pierced, I only want to hear from you if you have your own nose pierced.
I got my nose peirced when I was 16, three years ago. I also had found something I fell in love with that happened to be an ear ring and wore it for a little while, id say a couple of days. The problem was that it [like you said] was too small and since id only had the peircing for 4 or 5 weeks my body started to heal it and when I finally put my nose ring back in it almost wouldnt fit. It did, it hurt a little, but it stretched back out and everything was fine. So depending on how long youve had the peircing for is what will make the difference. If youve had it for at least 3 months [which is about how long mine took to COMPLETELY heal-- where I could leave it out for days at a time] id say youll be fine, if youve had it for about 6 weeks, id say 8 hours couullddd be pushing it, but will be fine also. Any time less than that id suggest just waiting it out a little bit, or only wear it for very very short amounts of time. Hope that helped at least a little! Keep it clean, good luck! :]
