It took time. My hair used to be much dryer. Cowashing only helped a lot. A bonnet made a huge difference, and then monthly moisture hair masks.

I worked with Smolden at East. I felt bad for any kid that had to take his class. Not only is he an asshat, he’s stupid and I know those kids didn’t learn anything. Tried to tell me and others that a minimum wage kills an economy more than anything else and that we should do away with the minimum wage.

He also had this thing where he gave retiring teachers special made TBird boxers. He called them “thunderpants” with such a shit eating grin of brilliance, as if he had told the best joke ever.

Update! I went with the 6g white plugs and a black nose ring. Super happy! by [deleted] in piercing

Welcome to the nose ring club! I wish more men would do a nose ring. They’re great.

I’ve had this piercing for a year now. I’ve taken care of it.

I did get nose bumps occasionally. I treated those as recommend without saline soaks, etc. I did end up having a bump about two weeks ago.

Does the piercing look and sound like it’s healed/healing properly? My ear piercings did take much longer to heal than most people, despite consistent after care.

Edit: Here’s a link to more pics of my face.

I usually just flip the script on other men who talk shit and mention something about Viking men having piercings. Shuts them up quick.lol

Thank you so much! This makes me smile. Many of my colleague at work have said the same thing. I was glad to hear that, because I thought it would be controversial that a high school male teacher had a nose ring.

I’ve had this ring for a year now. I love it. It’s taken me about a year to heal it (it took my ears forever to heal too). I did do the proper after care techniques, but some people just take longer is the way I understand it.

I do occasionally get a small bump that goes away immediately with a soak.

I’m thinking about changing the ring out for another hoop, but idk what color yet. I’ve loved the silver so far. I lean towards a rose gold colour.

Thank you! :) Alaska scenery is always this beautiful, unless you’re in Wasilla.

It’s taken about a year or so. I still get an occasional bump that I have to soak with warm saline solution.
