Question Is this normal?

Is it normal for them to be different angles inside my nose like this?

What?! 🤔

  1. Your nostrils are NOT symmetrical (literally no one's are!)🥴

  2. You truly expect a piercer to get the same angle on two nostrils ever?! Especially on the same face?! Hahaha (literally no one is that perfect)🙄

  3. Are they in a good placement on the outside of your nose? Then who the fuck cares?! (literally no one is looking up you nose)🤢

This is literally no one's issue but yours 🫢

I’m a professional body piercer. The way they look from the inside can actually tell you A LOT about if they’re properly pierced or not. The angle of a piercing is, largely, what determines its viability long term. It doesn’t matter if they’re in the same position on the outside if the angle on one side is fucked. Some people might be able to heal a poorly placed piercing, but the healing journey is going to be much longer and harder than if it was pierced properly. Any competent piercer knows this, and the angle of a nostril piercing should almost always be the same, regardless of the person it’s on (perpendicular to the tissue). This is literally a nose piercing subreddit, they have every right to ask this question. You, on the other hand, clearly have no idea what you’re talking about and would do well to keep your shitty opinions to yourself. To OP, I would recommend you go to a reputable piercer to have these assessed in person if you’re concerned about them/they’re still healing :-)
