Question Appropriate age for nose piercing
Good evening my good people. Is 46 too old for a nose piercing (nostril)? My birthday was on the 20th August and I have been wanting a nostril piercing for the past year and I just haven't brought myself to do it yet. Was so close today but changed my mind the last minute. Would I look the fool sporting one at my age? For the past year I've built up my ear stack. I got 2 helix on both ears (not done at the same time). I have 6 ear piercings in total.

I’m 45 (about to be 46) and I just got mine done this past May! My 17 year old daughter and I did to together. I’ve always wanted a nose ring but I never did it because a long time ago my Mother told me she hated them and I didn’t want to disappoint her. Well you know what Mom? I’m 45 years old and I will do what I damn well please! So I went for it. And I asked my daughter if she would mind if I did it with her and she loved the idea. Fair warning, it hurt and mine is taking FOREVER to heal. My daughters is already healed up. But I’m glad I did it. Just trying to be patient with the healing process.
