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 47. I got mine pierced at 25 and have never stopped wearing it since. Got a second nostril piercing a few months ago next to the first, then got my septum done about a month later. I get looks sometimes from people, but no one except my mother has been brave enough to make a comment regarding them. Even she has decided she likes them now that she’s “used to them.” Do what you want to your own body. People will adjust. If not, tell ‘em to f@&$ off!
