Earrings in the nose
Piercing has long ceased to plunge others into shock. Now it is found almost at every step, acting as an additional decoration even where it was simply unthinkable before. One of the sexiest, according to men, types of piercing for women is a nose piercing. Of course, putting earrings in your nose in the heat of the moment, because it is fashionable, is not worth it. We patiently understand the nuances.
Peculiarities
Making a puncture in your nose is not the easiest and most painless thing to do. What is the name of the piercing earring? Everything is logical here - just a pier. Most often, women pierce their own wing of the nose, less often the lower part of the membrane between the nostrils. Usually earrings for nose piercing are rings of various types or studs. The so-called barbells are much less commonly used.
In order to get to know as closely as possible all the features, pros and cons of earrings in the nose, let's look more specifically at their varieties and pay attention to how different jewelry looks like.
Views
The types of piercing piers depend, as a rule, on the place of their future location. Agree that umbilical banana earrings are unlikely to fall into place in the nose or in the eyebrow. Let's take a look at what types of earrings for nasal punctures are:
Barbell, barbell, bar
Smooth thin stick-crossbar with two twisted balls at the edges. It can be up to 5 cm in length. The puncture site completely controls the value of this parameter and sets the tone for the piercing. Ideal for extreme beautification of the bridge of the nose.
Labret
It is a straight shortened bar-stud (again with different lengths for each puncture), at one end of which there is a flat disk (the inner part of the earring), and at the other end there is a ball or decorative wrapping with a diamond or rhinestones (outer part). Special attention should be paid to the outer part of the earring - wrap. It is the aesthetic component of the decoration.
Small wrapping has several options:
- cabochon - a flat stone without a cut;
- bezel - a stone tightly fixed in a frame;
- prong - crystal in the frame;
- flat-gem - rhinestones with a flat bottom;
- cluster - several wraps welded to each other;
- wrapping without stones.
Circular
This is such an original horseshoe ring, made in the shape of a crescent. The ends of this decoration are crowned with rolling balls, thorns, and cones.
Clamping ring with ball
One of the segments of this round earring is replaced with a ball or any other curly wrapping.
Twister (spiral)
Earring, with its "tail" reminiscent of a segment of a spring. The ends of the earring can also be supplemented with any wrap. You can find twisters with a different number of turns.
Faux piercing
A unique tool that allows you to wear earrings wherever you would never get a real piercing. The following fake piers for the wing of the nose are very popular:
- decoration with a special adhesive base that allows you to simulate wearing a carnation;
- decoration with soft, non-sharp tips to simulate a septum puncture.
Nostrill (snail)
One of the most common nose piercing earrings. It is named so because its inner part resembles a snail with its bend. This property prevents the jewelry from falling out during wear.
Classic ring
This is an earring that represents infinity in the form of a ring. Usually comes with a detachable segment for easy donning.
Materials (edit)
In order for the process of piercing and healing to take place with minimal discomfort, you need to worry in advance about what material your jewelry will be from.
The first thing you have to face is medical alloys. Standard jewelry used in most beauty salons. It promotes rapid and maximally comfortable wound healing. On average, the duration of this process does not exceed three months.
One of the most traditional and most common materials is gold. Experts recommend purchasing only high-quality jewelry made of this metal and with the highest standard. The lower the quality, the greater the likelihood of skin irritation and other unpleasant reactions. It should also be borne in mind that the sample should be on the jewelry as far as possible from the puncture, so as not to cause discomfort when wearing. Sometimes, instead of the classic ball, gold earrings have an ending in the form of a flower, butterfly, heart, asterisk and other original figures.
Silver in earrings for a nose is not the best option. And we are talking here, first of all, about the reaction of the skin and the puncture site to this metal. Unfortunately, practice shows that silver jewelry does not promote wound healing and can even cause irritation. Also, particles of this metal can get into the wound and give your puncture an unaesthetic appearance.
Among the less popular, but no less popular, there are products made of acrylic, enamel, titanium, wood, bioflex and bioplastic.
Manufacturers
The SUNLIGHT trademark is famous for the presence of both its designer nose jewelry and products of other brands. The company makes “native” piers from pink and white gold with a diamond insert, from silver with a cubic zirconia insert. Available: rods, labrettes, snails, classic and complex rings, inlaid with a precious stone.
Jewelry House SOKOLOV ("Sokolov") presents more classic models of piers for the nose in rose gold and silver of the highest standard with cubic zirconia.
The Topaz Jewelry Factory is another successful Russian brand that produces nose piercing earrings. His Lines of Love collection includes models made of red and white gold with diamonds, sapphire, emerald and cubic zirkonia. The latter stone is found in greater quantities, and jewelry with it is several times cheaper than the rest.
EFREMOV ("Efremov") - previously had a more prosaic name - "JewelerPromBusiness" - presents delicate earrings for piercing made of red gold with inserts from the popular cubic zirconia. Models with pearls are less common.
How to insert and how to wear?
When the healing process of the puncture is completed, any modern fashionista can decide to change the original jewelry for a new one. Of course, immediately after the piercing, you can ask the master about it, because you have already, most likely, chosen an earring for your taste, mood and style. But, firstly, it is advisable to wait for the wound to heal, and secondly, independent girls like to do everything themselves. First, you need to remove the carnation - an old decoration.
Step-by-step instruction:
- Purchase a special piercing care lotion. If this is not possible, you can use classic boiled water, which is always at hand.
- Soak a cotton swab in the liquid.
- Insert your finger into the nostril where the puncture is.
- Raise the earring a little and work the hole under the jewelry with a stick.
- Gently pull out the earring and treat the puncture again with the other end of a cotton swab moistened with liquid.
The rules are simple, so their implementation does not require much effort from you. There are times when the earring has practically "grown" to the puncture site. Then you still need to turn to professionals.
The process of putting earrings into the nose is more complicated and painstaking. How to insert the earring correctly depends directly on the type of jewelry.
For example, nostrill and twister must be threaded from outside to inside. First, disinfect the earring and your own hands. Now you need to carefully tuck the tip of the jewelry into the hole. Turning the earring clockwise, gently insert it into your nose. Thanks to its winding tail, this type of earring, although it gives difficulties when inserting, is very tight.
A ring of any size can be inserted into the nose as it is convenient for you to fasten it. If we talk about the labret, then the order of its threading is from the inside out. Remove the wrapping, thread the barbell through the puncture. Keeping a flat base inside the nose, wind the jewelry on the outside.
A classic carnation is simply inserted from the outside to the inside, but it should be borne in mind that it does not hold very well and is often simply lost.
Of course, all these jewelry can be worn whenever you want and under any clothes. Modern fashion is so democratic that it does not have clear rules on this matter. However, if you are going to work, study, conference and other important and serious event, you should take into account the dress code prevailing there. Classic business style does not accept any flashy jewelry, except for modest gold earrings in the ears.
How to care?
In order for the healing process of a puncture in the nose to be as easy as possible and bring the desired results, during the first 2-3 months you need to strictly follow the following recommendations:
- The piercing needs to be cleaned two to three times a day, so clean hands is the key to the right approach.
- It is better to carry out care with a special saline solution, which the master who made the puncture will tell you about. A cotton pad is immersed in the hot solution and gently wipe the piercing.
- After the general "session" we pass to the point one. A cotton swab soaked in the same warm saline solution is used. Now you are guaranteed to remove all unnecessary from the puncture.
- If you find an unnatural green or yellowish discharge around the earring, you should clean the piercing right away.
A nose-ring is not only fashionable, beautiful and sexy, it is also a great responsibility and neatness.
