How to Keep a Nose Ring in Place



A nose ring can easily go from a gorgeous adornment to a major annoyance if it keeps popping up, falling out and getting lost or plopping down into your soup at dinner. You can keep a nose ring in place with a few simple tips.







Things You'll Need:





Nose ring



Proper backing on the nose ring









Step
1



Have the proper backing on the nose ring. Some have a small ball on the end and others have a bent back. In my case, the small ball ring kept sticking out further than it was supposed to. I switched to the bent back and bent the back even further to secure it in place.




Step
2



Stop touching it. Playing with the nose ring or touching it to make sure it’s still there not only invites infection but may also dislodge it.




Step
3



Pay extra attention when you wash or dry your face. Nose rings like to get caught on towels or skitter down the drain.




Step
4



Blow your nose with care. Keep one finger pressed on the nose ring as you empty your nostrils into a tissue.




Step
5



Remove the nose ring when necessary. If you are going into a vigorous sport, swimming or doing something that may dislodge or rip out the nose ring, take it out. You can leave the hole open or inserts a soft, plastic nose ring plug found at many
jewelry
stores

Tips & Warnings









Hoops and heavily adorned nose rings are more likely to get caught on things than simple studs.








Kids like to grab at a nose ring, pets like to lick at a nose ring and shirts and other clothing articles like to get stuck on and pull at a nose ring.
