@ home nose pierciers? experience guidance needed!?

Question

i'm 14 going on 15 & i can't get my nose pierced here till i'm 17...so far there's been one gurl i know who came to skool claiming she had hers done @ home..my dad said he could do mine's @ home with an ear piercing gun kit from wal-mart..do u think this is a good idea? how would i keep infection down & clean it?

Answer 1

it's only a good idea if they know what they are doing in the first place.

I mean, if i got my ears pierced with ice, alcohol and a sewing needle years ago then i don't see why you can't get it done at home.

Answer 2

If you have parental permission, which it sounds like you do, you sould beable to get it done professionally. Daddy just needs to go with you.

That might vary state to state though.

ps. Professional piercing removes a section of skin, at home (or keep done at the earring store) piercings push a hole in the skin.

Answer 3

seriously, do NOT pierce yourself. You are too young to understand -- you could SERIOUSLY deform your nose, or at least get some scarring. In fact, the risk of scarring or infections is very HIGH if you pierce yourself. You don't have the same experience, knowledge, & tools as a professional piercer. Wait until you're of age to get it done at a PIERCING PARLOR. And, by then you probably won't want a piercing there anyway -- nose piercings still can hurt you in job interviews. So think about your future. And imagine yourself at 20 or 30 or 40 with a piercing on your nose. Good luck.
