I’m getting my nose pierced today!

I’m a 33 year old married mother of two living in the Home Counties and I work in the City 😂

I’ve wanted my nose pierced since forever, but there’s always been a reason it wouldn’t be acceptable - mostly because of the workplace but also I wasn’t sure if I could pull it off. But since Covid, dress codes at work have relaxed (plus, while I’m in professional services, I’m marketing, which can be a little less formal). And after having 2 kids I’m just a bit ‘well, if not now, when?’ about life 😄

Feeling rather nervous/excited/concerned I’ll look like an idiot afterwards (I can always take it out after, right?)

Tell me that I can survive the pain if I’ve gone through childbirth twice!! The last piercing I had was my ear cartilage at 17 in Claire’s Accessories when I was a bit tipsy

Also any tips for aftercare v welcome!

I'm 55, not remotely cool or trendy (and haven't got a cute nose either!) but I love mine.. once it finally heals from the extra batterings mine has taken from my job I shall have a hoop, and be a grey old hippy lady :)
