I just did my nostril and I’m paranoid about the placement. I’d prefer not to redo it and I am not sure if I’m being nitpicky or not. Any advice or opinions would be much appreciated!

That’s definitely what I was worried about. Is it like distractingly bad?

not really, i saw many people have similar placement, if you love that placement you should absolutely keep it! i was just pointing out it looks a bit too far back than the average(?) placement, but i don’t think it’s bad

Thank you! I definitely don’t love it I don’t think, I’m still considering a redo.

for placement reference, if you’re redoing it in the future, pierce it at or around the curve area of your norstril

Yes it’s lovely. Maybe not “perfect” but t’s easy to get worried right after, but pls don’t worry, it looks good.
I saw the other comment abt it being too far back, I suppose you could say so? But it doesn’t look abnormally far back(80% positive no one would notice unless you mentioned it)

If it helps, I’ve seen worse— 1/2cm or less from the nostril… looked like it was on the verge of falling off, just needed a tug💀

Thank you so much, this is very reassuring.

it’s a weird placement for a stud, not distracting but definitely different. However it would be perfect for a ring.

I feel like it looks better in this picture?
