really want to get my nose pierced BAD

um I really want to get my nose pierced BAD. like bad bad bad. but my dad always says no when I ask, but my mother thinks it would look really cute. as do I of course. and my grandmother would have a spell about mutilating my body if she saw me with a nose ring, so I know like theres flesh and clear nose rings, but I dont know where to get them? the only accessory store we have in my town is a Claire’s, can I get them there? or do they have them at the piercing place? also I need answers to these questions: 1:can I wear makeup around my nose ring? 2:which side do I get it pierced on?? and 3, (I know this is completely off nose piercing subject but…) im going to get my cartilage pierced in one ear, and which side do I get it pierced on??

thanks!:D xo

Answer #1

yea. you can wear makeup…just make sure you clean it, or else it will get infected… its a better bet to wait until its completley healed… but I wore makeup around myine and I was fine bc I kept it clean.

…get your mom to sign for it. your dad will get over it… AND SO WILL your GRANDMA. lol trust me of all people about this. I have 21 piercings, and I come from a super-conservative family. they might give you grief about it… but it deff will not last long…and life will go back to normal. its really not as monumental as your making it out to be.

…claires. no. hunny… go to a piercing parlor for that. I have 21 piercings… lol they have them at any reputable piercing/tattoo parlor.

… get your nose pierced on whichever side it would look better on. I have myine done on my left side… only because the indent on my left nostril is like .001 times deeper then the indent on my right nostril. it looks cuter when its set deeper in, rather then being out there floating. …go with whatever side is deeper.

and a cartilage piercing? lol whatever side you want. its no big deal. do both. seriously… its no big deal. whichever side you want.

Answer #2

get a septum - then you can flip it up into your nose whenever you need to. also, all of the tattoo/piercing places I have been to carry a ton of jewelry.

Answer #3

no no no, do not get your septum pierced. I think it looks way unattractive. nose studs look super cute on just about anyone. im going to get mine done too, soon. as for what side to put it on, if you have bangs to one side or your hair parted to one side more than the other, put the piercing on the other to balance out your face and features. it will look way better, and the piercing will never be hidden by hair.

best of luck :)

Answer #4

I wish I could help, but I know nothing about that stuff! I want my nose done! I think they look sooo CUTE! but good luck :p

Answer #5

get your cartalige on the right and your nose ring on your left. I’m getting my nose pierced in 3 weeks and I already have my cartalige on my right so gettin my nose pierced on the side where my bangs fall; which is on the left. plus I dont want them both to be on the same side. cartalige piercings DO NOT HURT AT ALL!!! its like a one out of ten on the pain scale…GOOD LUCK!!!

Answer #6

nose studs are really cute trust me … I got ma nose peirced recently and looks cuter dan I expected … hurts a bit but make sure the professionals do it fr ya …

pain depens on your personal pain tolerance… if ou badly wanna get it done … GIRL JUST GO FOR IT!!!
