I really want a nose ring. I peirced it myself a few months ago but let it close up because I was sick of always taking the stud out. Well now I really want a ring. And I really my parents to know that I have one so that I don't have to always take it out around them. They're very agianst body peircing. I don't think a nose ring is that big of a deal, how can I convince my parents to let me get one?
I actually just got my nose pierced like three days ago. & My parents weren't too fond of the idea either. I'm 16 now, and I've been talking about it since I was 14, so it took me two years to convince them. :) First ask them. Tell them why you want it so bad, and that you will properly take care of it. If they say no, then act mature for the next couple of days. Like, do things without your parents asking you, helping them around the house, with little siblings, etc.
This time print out information about body piercing. Like do research by calling piercing places, finding out hours, prices, etc. Also, the actual process of piercing, reassure your parents that you'll go to a really really clean place where they'll use clean needles & what not. [That's what my mom was mostly freaking out about, like getting AIDS through needles, haha.] Print out stuff about taking care of the piercing, and the aftermath of having a piercing like what you can't & can do.
Show this to your parents, and tell them that you really looked into it, and you're 100 percent sure that you want to get this piercing, and it's something you've wanted for a long time. Most of the reason my parents gave in was because they were SO sick of hearing me go on and on asking everyday if I could get it pierced, and in the end my mother LOVED it, and it looked a lot better then what she thought it would. :)
