Where I live I think you can get these kinds of piercings at 16. And I've never met anyone that still have these that over age 25.

When I see these I automatically think the person is a teenager.

I have one I'm 39. But I don't wear a ring in it. Just a tunnel so I can stick stuff through my nose and freak people out

Right, so I wouldn't be able to see it if I met you in person? Did you have a ring in it in the past?

Only when I first got it but I wore it hidden a lot then too. Then I stretched it up a few sizes. I like that it's hidden and people don't know.

I have other facial piercings too. At some point it's just too many metal things lol
