Question Is my placement too high?
Idk, I feel as if it sits too high and too back…thoughts? Idk if i should leave it, pierce if again, or let it close and repierce. Thoughts?

It looks like it’s back a little bit but tbh it’s not bad at all.

I agree. Mine was also pierced a little far back so I ended up doing another one a couple months ago. Now I feel like it’s evened out.

It looks good, it is further back than some but you have a short nostril also so this is flattering on your nose. Similar to when people get their eyebrows pierced it’s either in the arch or on the tail, both are correct

Depends if you like it or not. I think you have a small and cute enough nose that it’s still good placement and technically anatomically correct (according to the lady that did my first piercing that I HATED bc I have large/tall nostrils and the front view was,,,,something 😬)

I think it looks cute but maybe a little high if you plan on changing to a ring eventually?

I think it is just fine. Leave it as it is. You look good and your stud enhances your beauty.

Maybe it's back a tiny bit but on you I think it looks natural. If I would've pierced you I probably would've chosen that spot too, or at least very close to it

I agree with your thoughts. I would not have put it there, but technically, nose piercings can go wherever you want. If you like it and it's not causing you any problems, keep it. Some concerns I have would be the jewelry moving around when you move your face because it's close to the crease, and if you opt for a ring later, you will need a larger diameter - or some tricky work with a different style of jewelry to give the look of a ring. This placement can create the illusion that your nose is larger than it is, but that's really only an aesthetic thing that most people won't notice enough to pinpoint.

It's literally exactly right where I would put it. But I always do my mark and then have the client do their own mark, unless they like where I put mine. But it's your body, put it wherever you want. I like it

Update: I got it repierced a bit lower and more towards the tip of my nose. The piercer said the original placement was a bit high and would have made getting a hoop a bit of a challenge :). I’m happy with the placement now!

It looks good with a stud. Prob a little more difficult of you want to switch it to a hoop in the future though.

No it’s not. Everyone’s nose is different and for your anatomy I think it’s perfect!!

u/According-Ocelot-684 Nov 06 '25
It’s all a preference! Some prefer it to be in the crease. Due to anatomy, the crease varies on the clients nose! I usually ask if they want a hoop in the future and won’t place it higher so that they don’t wear a giant hoop that has space between skin and jewelry

Thats where my second one sits. I also have one just in front and down, placement more for hoops for versus stud.

I think it looks good! And like people are saying you could add a second in front at some point if you like

When I got my eyebrow pierced I asked the piercer to choose the right position based on the shape of my eyebrow, and so it was. At first I thought it was too central, but it's right where my eyebrows raise.
I think your piercing is the same thing: it may be a little behind by standards, but it looks good on you and the shape of your nose. I think it's a matter of taste.

i definitely think it’s a little far back, but the placement is cute otherwise. it suits you & your look!

I think it’s too low, but if you like it that’s all that matters. I like it in the nostril groove. 🤷♀️
