A normal nose stud, or something like plugs or an actual ring?
Does she have the right nose for it?

It depends on the girl, I am usually averse to them, but a girl I’m interested in right now has a facial piercing and it totally works for her. You just never know…you know? It works for some people I guess but not for others.

its a ring or hoop she wants in her nose

I used to be opposed to them on principal.

But I realize that actually seeing it sometimes makes the wearer seem “more” – more individualistic, stronger minded, more interesting. I’m guessing that in a cluster of people with nose rings, that I would find the one without a nose ring “more.”

In some people it seems a way to put straights off. But it just makes me wonder what they’re like when you get past the emotional gates.

Why should your friend care if you think it is attractive? It’s her nose.

When I had mine done, I got a lot of compliments on it. I liked it. I like it on other people. I think it is a matter of choice, it really isn’t any different than having your ears pierced.

The people who matter will like her for who she is, not what she looks like. The ones who judge based on her looks (because maybe piercings aren’t for them) aren’t worth keeping around, right? :)

There is really no right answer to your question. Some people digg it some don’t. I for one, have noting against piercings but would never get one.

It depends on the nose and the style of the piercing, as is true with just about any other piercing.

A woman I babysit for has one (just a stud, not an actual ring) and it totally works for her! What I have done is experiment with some photoshop stuff and try making a picture of myself with the change I want to make, before I do it. Maybe you could help her do that.

She shouldn’t worry about whether or not anyone thinks it is attractive or not.She should do it to please herself.
That being said,I think it looks like a wayward booger. ;)

I personally don’t like nose piercings (they’re just not my thing), but I wouldn’t suggest letting that stop her if she really wants to get it. If it’s something she wants and she would be happy with, more power to her!

I love the way most piercings look. I’d have a bunch myself if I weren’t crazily allergic to jewellery.

That being said, it’s her decision, not yours. If it turns out she doesn’t like it, she can just take it out and will be no worse for wear aside from being out 50 bucks (or however much it costs). No big deal.

@noelleptc Yes,yes it is.Pesky little things

It’s her nose; she should do what she wants. However, I do find septum piercings to look like boogers. The teeny little studs I find the most attractive of the nose piercings.

Bad idea. Seems like when she has to blow her nose it would be a problem.
If i went out with a girl with a pierced nose I would always be distracted by wondering what was growing in the little hole.

No, not at all. Things like that look unnatural (no matter how small).

I had my nose pierced and I took it out a few months ago. I have a scar, so be sure she knows that if she gets it and wants to take it out, it can cause a scar. That being said, when I had mine, I liked it. I’m thinking about getting it re-pierced, but I decided not to.

VS's avatar

Maybe she should start with a little stick-on stud to see how she likes it first. If it looks cool after a month or so, and she isn’t bored with it, go for it. Not my thing, but it’s snot my nose…

incendiary_dan's avatar

@VS Ha! I see what ya did there.

mattbrowne's avatar

To me: not attractive.

WasCy's avatar

I haven’t seen a single nose piercing (or other facial piercing) that is attractive to me. Ear piercings, sure, to a point. Nose piercings, not a single one.
