      Standard nostril piercing sizes are actually 18g-20g. It’s said within the first minute of the video.

    Awesome! I've had mine pierced for 6, 7 years or so and have been wearing mostly a ring. Now I wanted a symmetrical one in my other nostril and I was told it was too low so the bar on the inside would show. I like where it is though so this helped a lot! I think the best would be to try with a 1/4 (6mm) bar and see how it looks like.

    I heard from another piercer that 18g is best because a 20g can cause something called a butter effect where it can slowly cause a slice below the piercing if it’s snug? Unsure how true this is but a 18g in my nose is to bulky I’d prefer a 20g but dint want a small tear over time.

    • @luluah1198
      @luluah1198 8 місяців тому

      Yes the cheese cutter effect is real. 18g isn’t too bulky I’ve had it before but it caused me problems of rejection . It did start moving down the nose. This was due to the change in gauge. I was initially pierced with 16g, had it for a year and thought I could downsize . But my skin or body didn’t like this.
      Some people also have reaction or cheese cutter effect because their jewellery diameter is too small, rather than the gauge being a problem. So if the jewellery feels like it’s tugging on the piercing . It’s hard to flare the nose feels uncomfortable . If you can’t freely spin the ring, then it’s most likely too snug, go a size bigger. Better safe than sorry.
      So 2nd time round I have stuck with the 16g my piercer used . I don’t think it’s too bulky . Rather I think anything under 18g is too thin. It doesnt look like jewellery to me. I just have associations of necklaces links , keyring links. But I don’t want to upset people. It’s just something I see because I am accustomed to seeing large tribal Indian nose rings . I won’t be going for any gauges larger than 16g myself .
      If people like thinner ones and it’s causing no issue then that’s great too! I just don’t want to risk it or advise upon it after my own problems .

I was outside when it happenedso I figured I could wait until I went back into my house got my shower and then put it back in my nose. Less than 2 hours later I went to put it back in my nose and basically had to re pierce it because it had closed up already. I got it back in but holyshit it was a struggle and it was sore for a good week afterwards. Jump to 18 months of having it pierced and again I yanked it out. This time I went overnight without the jewelry in. Next morning I discovered it by the grace of God laying on the floor so I went and sanitized it and proceeded to put it back in. Again I basically had to pierce it all over again. I just wonder if I am an oddball and my body heals fast or if other people have experienced the same. so basically my advice would be if you remove it be damn sure you can get something else back in quickly to keep from having any issues.

    Hey, I had my nostril pierced a month ago. I am due to have major surgery in the next few months where I'll likely need to remove all piercings. How long does it take for a 2-3 month old piercing to heal and is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening? I won't be allowed to wear retainer either, but I'm hoping I can remove it just before I go under and then pop it back in right after.

      If it's that fresh it's hard to say, honestly everyone's body is different but I wouldn't count on it still being open after a few months :/ personal experience of having a nostril piercing close up after a few weeks. I hope this helps some and good luck with your surgery I hope all goes smoothly :) ♡

    • @HyperBlue-
      @HyperBlue- 4 роки тому +2

      Bit late but, measure the distance from where the nostril starts to where it was pierced and then add 1 mm so theres enough room and you don't get cheese cuter effect on your nose. Let's say the distance is 7mm, so you get an 8mm ring

    • @luluah1198
      @luluah1198 8 місяців тому

      I don’t think 18g or 16g is bulky. Comparatively the other ones below 18g are too thin. I go to an APP piercer and they’re said it’s not stable can cause issues so they don’t advise anything lower than an 18g for most piercings. But they pierce with 16g. I’ve stuck to 16g, had problems with 18g previously . I might think about it in 2 years but I’m happy with the 16g look it’s not greatly different from 18g

    If I put a ring in my nose and it is swelling up a bit at the whole - does that mean the ring is too small and I need to go up a size? It does not happen with my screw in stud.

    • @hilastry
      @hilastry 4 роки тому +1

      I don't think size matters for this. I got mine pierced about a month ago and I have a pretty large hoop and it's a little swollen at the hole. It's just a natural part of the healing process. If you had a stud in first and then put a hoop in, it's probably just your piercing getting used to the curvature of the jewelry. I've heard of people having their piercing for yeeears and then switching to a hoop made it act up a little bit.

    • @bast713
      @bast713 4 місяці тому

      I use an L stud in my nostril with bad seasonal allergies and some year round environment ones. In my experience a screw collects boogies that peek out, but your mileage may vary. I've had it for nearly 20 years through a lot of colds and bad allergy seasons and it's been the best option for me. You do have to be careful when wiping because an L will come out more easily than some other jewelry but I've only lost one once. You just learn to hold the tissue a little lower on your nose and blow one nostril at a time. It just takes some time and patience to get good at. Hopefully by now you have a well healed nostril piercing!

    Pls help me. Last week I got a nose stud piercing. It has turned in my nostril as the stud is huge L shape it keeps hitting up my nostril. It is most uncomfortable. I had to grab pliers to yank it down. The tail bit. Had gunk on it so I cleaned it. It keeps turning back up to the nostril again. I noticed this 2 days ago when I accidentally bumped it with my hand. Im going back to piercer tomorrow. Can they cut a piece of the L shape. I know it has to be bigger initially cos of swelling. Its driving me nuts this awful sensation. Feels like tail is digging in. Omg.
