Review on White-Silver Self Nose Piercing Gun Kit | Safe & Easy Self Nose Piercing Tool by Julie Braaten

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Proceed with care

When getting a piercing at home you should always proceed with caution, but it should be stressed that a nose piercing is not the same as an ear piercing. Piercing your own ear and keeping it clean is as easy as a drunk monkey. However, nose piercings require a saline solution and careful washing to avoid infection. So I took my time and got ready, bought the solution and all. But it's a blunt weapon. . . Other reviewers were right: the trigger is defective. I had to poke my nose twice in the same hole (oops!) because the needle almost came off and refused to go all the way. The blood spatter scared me because I thought I had disfigured my nose. I didn't, and in fact it didn't even hurt. It was like being suddenly punched in the face. But because the needle fell out the first time, my piercing wasn't exactly where I wanted it to be. However, it looks nice and I saved a lot of money, so I'm giving "value for money" three stars. So, in the end, it boils down to this: are you willing to take the risk of ruining your nose to save money? Is it worth the risk to you? I was willing to take the risk so I bought this and now I have a cheap piercing that's a little off. I still love it and think it's cute. But going to a pro would make it quicker and less scary. Again, it didn't hurt, but as the blood spurted onto my face, I was afraid for a moment.
