I’ve never understood the nose stuff. A stud in the side of the nose? So it looks like a zit? Or am I supposed to notice your nose first because it has a shiny object in it?

And nose rings? Like cattle? Or is it keep someone from picking his/her nose?

I’ve seen both on otherwise attractive women and wonder if it is done to mar their looks and dissuade some of the attention they receive (however it then tends to lure more attention from similarly altered bad boy types).

I always thought the jewel nose stud in Indian women to be beautiful.

That was also part of my response. But, limited piercings and weird hair are minor and they heal up. Tattoos are a different story.
