Re: nose piercing

So I am considering getting my nose pierced. So I wanna know if you have one:

How old were you when you got it and do you still have it if it has been more than say a year and half?

~18 - took out 2 years ago for job related reasons only to find out one of the doctor's had one grrrrr

Price range?

~I've seen them advertised for $20, I paid $40


Pain factor?

~the least painful of my piercings (labret, tongue, nips, belly)

Healing time?

~it wasn't sore after a few weeks, but I couldn't change the jewelry for 6 months or so - everyone is different in healing times

Easy to take care of?

~yes, just clean when you brush your teeth and/or shower and you are good to go (be careful of makeup removers in the first month, they can really irritate it)

Have you gotten in trouble for wearing it at work?

~when I was hired they recommended I take out so I did....it just depends on the gauge (size) of the stud you are getting. Anything larger than 16 would really draw some attention so I'd say you shouldn't have a problem with an 18


Oh and another random related question... how do you deal with allergies/colds/blowing your nose?

~verrrrry carefully
