Nostril Piercing Jewelry:

Placement is usually somewhere along the groove in the nostril where the cartilage is often thinner. The interior structure of the nostril should also be examined when deciding placement. Some piercers perform nostril piercings using a needle one size larger than the jewelry to be worn (e.g. 18 gauge jewelry, 16 gauge needle) to allow room for new tissue to form around the inside of the piercing, but this is not necessary.

Initial jewelry: Captive bead rings in 20 to 14 gauge and 5/16" to 7/16" inside diameter. The ring should not hug the edge of the nostril. A ring which is too small in diameter will often cause the piercing to migrate or scar.
