I have been thinking to do it a long time, but afraid of many things.
How painful it is. How long the healing etc.

Biggest issue. How am I showing up with the new look. And questions from everyone.

Advice appreciated.

My friend did is last year. She was excited about it for a week, wore it proudly and was so happy to show it off. A week or two later she took it out, she said she got over it. Idk.
I wouldn't do it but that's me.

I am not sure where you live or what circles you are in so I cannot comment on how people will react. In my community it’s a big statement and would come with a lot of judgment..

That being said, if it’s something you like and want and don’t care what people will say anyways then go for it!

From my understanding with friends who have gotten, it can take months to heal. Make sure to find somewhere reputable to do it and be careful with any facial products you normally use to avoid infection afterwards. Also better to start with a stud rather than a hoop from what I’ve heard. The pain is probably similar to getting an ear cartilage piercing

A teenager I know got a cartilage piercing in her nose. It hurt for a week and then she was fine.

I don't get how you blow your nose if you have a nose ring...?

Try a clip-in first. It will give you some idea of whether you actually want it.

It's so not a big deal. I did it twice. Biggest risk is knocking it out in your sleep so make sure you get a starter nose ring with has a hook inside. It's a very personal choice. You know your crowd and community. I did it in Israel and again, in college. I wouldn't do it today and no one can tell I ever did it.

I happen to think nose rings are ugly, but you do you. You'll just excuse me if I don't look you in the face when we talk. Sorry, but those things make me nauseous, no matter how gorgeous the woman and how discreet the ornament.

When I was in school the "in thing" to get for your Bat-Mitzah was earrings. When I asked for some my Daddy told me that he is only going to pay for a nose ring not earrings. I wonder what would have happen if I told him fine I'll take a nose ring

Did you derive pleasure making this comment? Are you grown up who really can't look past something that's very normal in many cultures?

Nauseous? Seriously? That's honestly something you need to work on not bring up here as a reason why maybe someone shouldn't get one.
I'm writing this response because I think your comment was just mean.
There are some things I don't particularly enjoy looking at but I'd still give someone the decency to look them in the face when talking to them.
