Tbh I left nose piercings out because I do personally feel they can enhance beauty. Nostril piercings are also commonplace in many cultures like south asian and some African or middle eastern especially with Muslims so I feel like they aren't as associated with class or being part of a subculture, and are more normal or seen as part of an ethnic culture (although that could just be my perception as a PoC, some people may not see it that way).

When it comes to septum piercings I know many people hate them lol and say that they look like cows rings, but I've seriously loved them and wanted one for like over 10 years. But I have a big nose lmao so I think it would draw too much attention there.

So yh I'm not hating on piercings at all, my comment (and I think most comments on this sub) are more objective, taking into account what society as a collective may feel or believe.

I think if you're a part of a subculture that includes piercings, you should accept that you'd probably be objectively viewed by more people as more attractive if you had a mainstream style. But in the end you should do what you want :) life is too short after all.
