Can You Use Nose Rings As Earrings?

Nose rings have been around for centuries, and they're currently surging in popularity. But can you use nose rings as earrings? The answer, surprisingly, is yes. While nose rings and earrings serve different purposes, they are both pieces of jewelry that can be worn on the face. Nose rings are usually made from stainless steel or titanium and they can be adorned with gems or charms. 

For one thing, nose rings are usually smaller than standard earrings, so they can fit easily into your ear piercing. Additionally, nose rings are typically made of smaller gauge wire, which can make them comfortable to wear in your ear. As you can see, there is no reason why you can't use a nose ring as an earring- simply remove the metal clip and insert it into your earlobe. You can also use a nose ring as a makeshift eyebrow ring by gently bending the wire into shape. So, next time you can't find your earrings, don't fret - just grab your nose ring and get creative. 

In this blog post, you will discover simple ways to turn your nose ring into earrings, and how to take proper care of both your nose and ear piercings. We’ve got a lot to cover - so let’s dive in with why one would want to use nose rings as earrings.

Why Would You Want To Use Nose Rings As Earrings?

So, Can You Use Nose Rings As Earrings?

Can nose rings be used as earrings? Are nose rings safe to be used as earrings? There are two primary types of nose rings: those that are inserted through the nostril, and those that are inserted through the septum. Septum piercings are usually believed to be “riskier” because they are pierced into a sensitive area of cartilage.

As long as you use high-quality nose rings, only get pierced by a professional, and follow careful aftercare for your piercing, you should be safe. Can you use nose rings as earrings after proper care? Yes, you can! But before you go ahead and put your nose ring in your ear, there are a few things you need to know. 

First of all, not all nose rings are suitable for wear in the ears. Note that studs for nose piercings are typically 18G to 20G in size, while earrings are 22G. Yet, if your nose ring has a heavy gauge or is made of a certain type of metal, it may not be safe to wear in your ears. It's always best to check with a piercer or doctor before putting any type of jewelry in a new piercing. 

Secondly, you'll need to clean your nose ring thoroughly before wearing it in your ear. This is because bacteria can build up on the jewelry, which can lead to infection. So make sure you give your nose ring a good clean with some antibacterial soap before putting it in your ear. 

What About Vice Versa - Can Earrings Be Used As Nose Rings?

Can nose rings be used as earrings? You already know by now that the answer is yes. While nose rings have been traditionally worn in cultures around the world for centuries, earrings have only been widely adopted in the last few hundred years. Nevertheless, both earrings and nose rings serve the same basic purpose: to adorn the body in a beautiful way.

So, can you use earrings as nose rings? The short answer is yes. In fact, many people who have their nostrils pierced also choose to get their ears pierced so that they can interchange their nose rings and earrings. However, there are a few things to keep in mind if you plan on wearing your earring as nose ring. 

Firstly, make sure that your nostril piercing is fully healed before you attempt to wear your earring in your nose. Secondly, remember that not all earrings are created with premium quality metal such as titanium or stainless steel; some are made with materials that are not suitable for wear in the nose. So, choose your earrings carefully if your goal is to wear them in your nose as well.

Finally, think about the size of your earring. If the gauge of your ear piercing is too small, then your nose ring can close up as you wear it in your nose. Why a nose ring close up? Your body might perceive the placement of the new earring as a wound and work to heal it by sealing it up. This is where the proper aftercare really makes a huge difference.

It is important to do your research before putting your earring as a nose ring for this purpose. With these considerations in mind, there is no reason why you can't enjoy the beauty of wearing both earrings and nose rings.

However - should you wear nose rings as earrings, and vice versa? Let’s take a look.
