High nostrils... Crazy or Cute?

Thinking about getting a high nostril piercing? Here’s everything you need to know before you commit!

👉 What is it?

High nostrils are just like regular nostril piercings only placed higher up toward the bridge of your nose.

👉 Why get them?

They’re stunning for anyone who loves symmetry, stacked piercings, or bold nose jewelry looks.

👉 Pain & Procedure

They’re always done with a needle (NEVER a gun). Because the cartilage is thicker, they can hurt a bit more than a standard nostril piercing but pain is different for everyone.

👉 Healing Time

These piercings are a commitment! Healing can take up to 2 years. Expect swelling or irritation bumps, and don’t downsize your jewelry too soon it can make things worse.

👉 Aftercare

Same as most piercings: sterile saline spray twice a day, rinse with cool water, and pat dry with a clean paper towel.

👉 Jewelry Options

Flat back labret studs are your best bet while healing. Once healed, you can level up with chains (super trendy right now) or custom pieces to make your look unique.

👉 Styling Tips

High nostrils look amazing paired with standard nostril piercings or a septum for a balanced, edgy style.
