How big of a needle do you need to pierce your nose?

Answer 1

The needle that is only available at a professional body piercer's studio and used in compliance with local health and safety regulations. You have no clue what you are doing and will just screw your nose piercing up, save the effort wasted by a bad idea and see a professional body piercer. Only a professional will get the piercing right the first time and you won't look like foolish with a poorly self done nostril piercing.

The biggest size one can get if looking into getting a nose stud varies on what type of piercing one wishes to have, the sizes go in gauges and goes up in two's 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 18, 20 and 22, remember the lower the number the bigger the gauge.

Answer 3

As big or small as you want it. Traditionally, 18 gauge i think. But my best friend has a 14, and my septum is 12. You want to start small though.

Answer 4

Most people will pierce a nose at an 18 guage, but a 16 guage can be used to allow for swelling. Although it may be hard to find a 16 guage nose ring, they do exist.

Answer 5

Depends on the piercer, but most use a 18 or 20 gauge, which is a little smaller than a safety pin and almost painless.
