Nose piercing approaching 40?!

[pinksnowflake]

I've wanted my nose pierced since I was a teenager. Will I just look like I'm having a mid life crisis (best mate's words) or is it an acceptable thing to do when you're 38?

Does it suit anyone? I'm a skinny jeans and pretty top kind of person, wear glasses, have a few tattoos...

Don’t know but I’d love one too!

Well I'm on my 50s and had a helix ear piercing last year so it's not too late.

Do it if it's what you want.

I got mine done last year at 41. Does it look mid life crisisy? Maybe but I don't care. I always wanted it too and was never brave enough. I don't regret it. It did take a loooooong time to heal though.

I’ve just had a helix piercing at 48 and love it! Other than that, just normal ear piercings too.

I did it. Late 30s. Got a nice rose gold ring in my nose. I must really suit it because a lot of people thought that I had always had my nose pierced. They couldn't remember a time when it wasn't there.

Whatever you may think it would look like most other people will think it looks disgusting, do not do it.

I had mine done in my late teens and am still wearing it at 41. And, no, I don’t look “disgusting”!!!

Had mine repierced 3 weeks ago after an incident that reminded me that life is short! I'm 49 - if it's what you want, do it. You can take it out if you change your mind. FWIW my mum turned 70 last week & is getting her first tattoo

you're in your 40s. Haven't you got tired of the weight of other people's expectations yet?
You want a nose piercing then get one

Love that Vitty!!

Do it.

If you want it, go for it. Bet you'll love it & wish you'd done it years ago.
If someone else doesn't like it then tough, it's your nose, not theirs, so long as you like it who cares what anyone else thinks?
And if you end up changing your mind you can always take it out.

If I saw a 40 year old woman with a nose ring I would think they were a strong confident person who doesn't care about other people's opinions and I would definitely want to be her friend.

Merlot that's lovely 😊

I'm 34 and have had my nose pierced for just over a year, go for it!!

Had mine re pierced beginning of this year age 38

I think I'm going to go for it!!

No, unless you dress like a hippy or are Indian. Otherwise they look rough.

Although if your tattoos are visible it really doesn't matter. Sorry.

Milad you are funny!

Go for it OP, if you don't like it you can take it out.

I agree, Its a very hard look to pull off. I took mine out in my 20s.

I think they can also look a bit 'try hard'. Sorry.

I think you need a certain kind of confidence and style to carry it off and that's ok. However OP it appears you don't have that otherwise you wouldn't be asking an internet full of strangers if we think you are too old or not.
What if we all,said 'actually, yeah, you missed the boat on that one?''

Do it. Got mine done for my 48th birthday. Doesn't look "try hard" at all, just a pretty sparkle on my nose. Matches my helix piercing done a coupe of years ago.

I had mine done (fine silver hoop) last autumn at 37 after wanting one for years. It is one of the best things I've ever done, appearance wise. As soon as it was done my face felt 'right', like I should always have had it!

My style is definitely individual and quirky so it suits me. My advice is to go for it 😃.

I had mine done when I was 16, let it close over when I was in my mid 20’s and just had it redone again last year - I’m 38. I LOVE having it back.
