How To Take Your Nose Stud Out and In

Nose studs are a popular fashion choice among many. Knowing how to take your nose stud in and out correctly will help you to keep it in good condition and preserve its strength and longevity. Follow this step-by-step guide to learn how to take your nose stud in and out of your nose safely and properly.

Instructions

1. Clean your hands before touching your nose stud. Use a mild, non-abrasive soap and warm water or an alcohol-based hand sanitizer before beginning the process.
2. Locate the ball on the end of the nose stud that is inside the nostril. Taking a hold of the outside end of the nose stud, twist the ball counter-clockwise until it is loose.
3. Hold the stud together by the ball, then gently pull the nose stud out.
4. When putting a nose stud back in, start off by slipping the outside end of the nose stud through the hole. This can be done with both fingers and tweezers, although a tweezer may provide a more secure hold.
5. Twist the ball clockwise until it is secure and stable. To ensure it is correctly fastened, check that it fits tightly and doesn’t rotate inside the hole.

Tips

• If your nose is sore, stinging, itchy, or irritated, take out your nose stud and give it a few days to recover. These symptoms may indicate an infected piercing.
• Clean your nose stud regularly with a piercing aftercare solution to remove bacteria and prevent infection.
• Use gentle and precise motions when taking your nose stud in and out. Forcing your nose stud can cause pain and damage the piercing.
