Stormig Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 I recently got my left nostril pierced and have been looking up - or been trying to look up - what they call that Indian ornament that consists of the ear stud and the nose stud joined by a chain. What is it called? I can't find anything about it online. Puh-leez! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is it called? I can't find anything about it online. Puh-leez! Don't know what it's called, but I've called it a torture device. A girl that used to hang out with us back in high school got one; hers was a kind of a thick silver chain - and she loved until it got caught in the branch of a bush near the bus stop. She was running at the time and the force tore open her nostril. Lots of blood, she needed surgery to fix it. Recommedation, if you DO get one, get a cheap, thin, soft chain - so just in case it gets caight on anything, it'll break (and not rip your face). Apart from putting holes in your nose, anything else new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormig Posted November 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 Oh yes, the safety is a concern, and I would wear it only now and then, when driven around and not when running for the bus or jogging. I, too, rather it be dainty and nothing hardcore. I had been thinking of getting myself a tattoo, but this came before it. I still am considering it.

Stormig Posted November 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 I also like the ones done on the upper lip frenulum - but I'd have to check with my dentist first. I had been thinking of the nose piercing for some time, and then I got my last inspiration from the following attached picture of my favourite beauty queen.

Aubépine Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 I love all things Indian, especially their clothes and jewelery. They are so stylish. I've got a tatoo based on a very intricate henna design circling just above my left ankle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sip Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 The problem with piercing your nose is, that if you're not careful, you might get snot all over anyone that happens to be around you when you blow your nose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sip Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Hey, you'll thank me next you have to blow your nose. Just keep a finger on the extra hole I usually make fun of my cousin who has a hole pierced below his lower lip ... I tell him to be careful while sneezing because if he tries to keep his mouth shut, he might shoot out the metal thing in there and blind someone.

Anileve Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Stormi!!! Why did you get your nose pierced?!!! I know at least 3 people who have done it, after a while you get quite tired of it and remove it, but the hole never really goes away. So it kind of looks like a constant giant blackhead. I am horrible, I know, I am sorry.... It looks really nice in some cases but overall it's a little difficult to maintain that look for a while. But on the other hand... Congratulations! I know, this was really not much help, just pushing my views as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormig Posted November 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 That's a really well done ad. Great messaging. I'll have to check it out elsewhere, not at the office. Funny, Eve, I don't ever recall noticing anyone had a giant black spot where the hole is. And I'm pretty observant. Nothing a little foundation can't cover on those "special" occasions, I'm sure. If it's so bad I can let it close up in the following months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sip Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Stormig, I'm sure you look hella cute with or without any ornaments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nairi Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Well, from personal experience, I would never try to permanently alter any part of my body ever again, unless absolutely necessary. As for blackheads, I don't know about the nose, but this is absolutely true for earlobes. I have not worn earrings in over ten years, and though the holes are as good as closed, you can still see the marks very clearly. I doubt they'll ever go away.

I'd say I used to be/have been quite militant about that view. But then again, only fools don't change their minds and I've been so bored over the last two years at this job that I don't know what to do with myself.

If it's sado-masochism you're into, then there are many other ways to generate pain without necessarily leaving permanent scars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not S&M. Just do things for a change, etc. Funny, I got past my teens and university years without causing any racket about any of this stuff, so I am experimenting only now. In a way it's good, because now I feel I have a bit of perspective or whatever you'd call it. I chose to get my left nostril pierced because I hoped that the acupuncture know-how Indians claim - that that spot would ease menstrual pains and childbirth - would work. (Can't say it has helped - though it's not so bad with me anyhow.) For most people it's the right side because they part their hair from the right, so they look for "balance"... And the permanent scar part is not really so bad. My recent flare of acne, which I am also getting treated, is worse. So... Rant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormig Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Oh, just saw the ad... True, but Aishwarya Rai is stunning one way or the other. Check the following out: http://www.aishwaryaworld.com/ BTW - that other I mentioned (upper lip) is called the Madonna piercing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoushik Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 http://www.aishwaryaworld.com/ Hmm... I find nothing interesting about her. Of course she's a beautiful woman, but her eyes, her expression, her gaze deceive her. There is nothing but boredom inside her; no inner depth.
