Okay so I have some questions about piercings.

I'm seriously contemplating a nose piercing, on my left nostril. I just want like a tiny rhinestone. The thing is, the place that I work at is supposed to be "family friendly" and there's a dress code about jewelry. Females can only have 1 earring in each ear and males can only have 1 earring total. No facial piercings.

My question is: if I were to get it pierced, is there some sort of clear thing I could pierce it with initially, because I know it has to be in there 24/7 while it's healing. Then when it's fully healed, I could just switch to the clear one while I'm working?

I know like for navels the clear ones are always flexible, but those are meant for if the piercing is already healed....can it be a flexible ring while it's still healing? Or are the clear ones for noses even flexible?

And, if it's clear is obviously not made of the surgical steel stuff they usually use for piercings...is that going to be unsafe for my new piercing?

I really want to get it pierced but I can't quit my job...so will this work? Or does it HAVE to be pierced with metal? (link)
it depends on how big the clear stud is. i haven't seen one for the nose, but this girl i worked with had one for her tongue (we have strick piercing rules too). it was really obvious her tounge was pierced. your best bet is to just bandaid it. i don't know how strict your job is, but most businesses will allow that.

Thanks I think I'll end up just doing that anyway.
