High Nostril Piercings

They’re really not that different from standard nostril piercings, but I really like this high nostril placement a lot… it’s definitely odd visually.

    Nice piercings! Do you use labret studs in the high nostrils? Is it irritating in the nose?

    Megan: I just got high nostrils, number one; It didnt hurt that much, of course there’s some pain when the needle goes trough, BUT that lasts for 2-3 seconds.
    And number two; I didn’t feel any pain later on.
    (And I can’t feel jewelry inside my nose:D )

    Awe, they are so cute. I have my right nostril done, and I really want to put a single high nostril in the same side.

    & Yes, she is very cute. And I’ve never liked smilies before, but this picture makes me want to get one.

    I’ve had my nose pierced twice. I left them both go shut, but recently got one side re pierced and it sort of ended up a high nostril piercing on accident. The guy that did it definitely did it up higher than I expected, so when I looked in the mirror afterwards, I ended up more excited and happy with the difference than I could imagine most others would be after noticing the lift. I’ve always wanted a piercing higher on my nose, and you guys are right with not seeing them often, because I’m the only one I’ve seen around here with one. And I don’t have it done on both sides, that would just be too much with my bad allergies;)
