Hiya, I know there are old threads in this but I have some specific questions if those with experience are happy to answer…
I’d like to get a very minimalist nose piercing and I know I need to start with a stud even if I want a ring down the line. So questions:
if you now wear a minimalist ring what diameter and gage do you wear? Anonymised photos as examples would be helpful as google suggests 8mm but that seems massive.
if I get a stud with a 1.5mm ball/jewel at the start is that too small? Does it risk embedding into my nose?
does it really close up neatly if I absolutely hate it and/or have problems with it?
Finally, a less technical Q, do people really notice when you have it done? it’s for me and my ideal outcome is that it doesn’t scream “look at my fancy new piercing”

@Procrastatron I did worry I was too old or at least that people would think I was! But then I have always dressed a little alternatively, became more conservative when I became a mum and more recently I have thought stuff it, who cares what anyone else thinks. I am currently sporting frankly ridiculously chunky boots out at the shopping mall. I am swinging between loving them and thinking I possibly look like I am trying to be young. But I'm not, I'm aware of my age but want to wear what I like. I lost a lovely colleague just before Christmas who was over ten years younger than me, made me think just do it, you only get one shot at life and it might be shorter than you think.
