Very cute, it suits you.
Here is a video of when I gave myself my Monroe piercing last August.

I got all my sterile tools off eBay, then just researched it. I washed my hands and the outside of my face with dial and the inside of my mouth, I gargled with antiseptic mouthwash... dried it with a paper towel, marked it, clamped it and pierced it with a sterile 14 gauge needle.

I also did the center of my lower lip myself.

LOL! Becky I was just telling kim about that video the other day. I am so glad you posted it!
OP, I to have my nose pierced, I was 34 I think? and I was also getting divorced! It became a symbol of my freedom!!!! I hope you like yours as much as I do mine. Word to the wise, keep it in, it will grow shut in like 2 hours!!!!

Oh my gosh I could NEVER pierce myself! I like piercings and I even like getting pierced, but I couldn't do it to myself!

It's not as hard as you think, they are so sharp and hollow. It doesn't take much pressure to get the needle through. And with the inside of the mouth, you can see all the veins and such you need to avoid.
Honestly, I don't remember any pain either.

Could be because my mind was preoccupied concentrating, I didn't have a chance to psyche myself out! So that is also an advantage.

I did NOT need to see that! LOL Yet I looked anyway. LOL I would love to get my nose pierced. I just don't think I could do it. I am too much of a chicken. You seemed so calm after getting out of the chair. I would have been a nervous wreck before and after! I got my ear pierced for a second time when I was 18. It hurt so bad that I never got the other side done! Just couldn't bring myself to do it. I do like the nose piercing with the little stud. It is a little on the wild side but yet still very girly. I think it looks good!

I think your nose piercing looks GREAT!!! I have always thought of doing it...but my husband would die. but, if we were to ever split up, the first thing I would do is get another tattoo and get some piercings LOL

I love it I had a piercing for my 30th too.

About the inverted nipple thing. I know a few girls who have had it done for that reason and had no problems. I dont know who pierced you but Id get another opinion.
You have great nipples anyway dear.
but oh man Vixxen with pierced nipples. faints

Here is a shocker.......
I got my nose pierced when I was about 36 and it is still pierced. I went with my daughter who thought I needed a new image it was kinda fun and I have a very small diamond in it. I really didn't think it hurt too much and the only time it bothers me is when I dry my face with a towel and forget it is there.
I had a friend who turned 45 and went and got hers done. lol
My husband asked me if I was having a midlife crisis and I said well if it is only a nose piercing be thankful but then I went and got a tatoo about 6 months later.
That is all, I think it was enough to sew some wild oats that I never got to sew when I was young! lol

Lol, my dad got his first tattoo when he was 50! I got one, then my brother got one, and then my dad got one! We made the midlife crisis joke too! Now we're trying to convince my mom but she's not into it after I told her how much blood I saw come out with my second tattoo!
