I also got my nose pierced with a needle, the man who did it marked my nose first with a felt tip pen and had me look in a mirror then asked me if i liked where it would be placed. Then he hand me sit down..took the needle and a small metal type tub with an open flat end. He stuck the flat end in my nose so the needle wouldnt go through or injur my septum ( middle of ur nose). Then he put his hand back and that was it. It was so fast i didnt feel anything.
He left the needle in and threaded a nose screw in. That was it. He told me that a nose pin is not good to use when u first get ur nose pierced because it can come out and tear up the peircing,leaving ur nose sore, possibly infected and can cause a scar like bump.
Owwwwww. Just reading these posts made me ache. I had my nose pierced twice, both times while in high school. I haven’t worn a nose ring for over 10 yrs now. Both holes have closed up, but it takes a while for the scar to go away, and quite frankly, it never quite goes away. There’s always a tiny scar. You might want to wait longer to have your nose pierced again, especially to make sure it heals properly the first time. Good luck, either way.
i’ve had no problems wiht it now
