Nose Piercing.


Question Posted Sunday June 3 2007, 5:30 pm

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 =)

The L shaped one feels better in your nose, but is a little more likely to get pulled out by you little sister. as the last person said, the ones with backings feel funny, and look funny sometimes. so, i would reccommend the L shaped one for comfort, you'll just have to b more cautious with your sister near your nose. nose studs dont really come out the easily, so you shouldnt have too much to worry about with her pulling it out, unless she actually grabs the top of the studs and pulls up. ive ran a towel across it and my hand across it while itching around it, and it hasnt come out. it will only come out if you grab it from the top of the stud and pull up.

as for the pain, i cant really say exactly, becuase everyone has different pain tolerances. for me, it was comparable to the top of your ear, if youve had that done, but a little bit more painful. but its deffinetly worth it=]

good luck!

since your nose is made of cartilage, its gonna feel the same as if you were gonna get your upper ear done(its gonna hurt)

the backing is kinda funny feeling cause its just stuffed in your nostril and occationally pops out and looks like a booger.and i havent triend the L shaped one,so ima not sure on that one

but since its in your nose, your lil sis shouldnt be able to reach the peircing.but she is @ the age of learning how things work in the world and she will also try and test her limits with things.if she looks like shes gonna go for your nose ,stop her and tell her no.
