NOSE SIZE GUIDE
Choosing the right size is essential for comfort, healing, and the perfect aesthetic of your nose piercing.
Since every anatomy is unique, fit and appearance can vary depending on the jewelry type, placement, and desired look.
NOSTRIL STUDS
For freshly pierced nostrils, we generally recommend starting with a stud.
It moves less and puts less pressure on the tissue, supporting a more comfortable healing process.
OUR RECOMMENDATION
• 8 mm → for fresh nostril piercings
• 6 mm → after full healing
During the healing phase, tissue can swell slightly. A slightly longer post provides enough room during this time and reduces unnecessary friction or pressure points. Once fully healed, many prefer a shorter, closer-fitting stud for a clean, elegant look.
NOSTRIL RINGS
Rings should ideally only be worn once the piercing is fully healed.
Since a ring moves and rotates more than a stud, it can further irritate a fresh piercing.
