I'd like to know if in your opinion nose piercings instantly make you look more trashy in lolita or ouji.

I'm personally into gothic lolita, military lolita and aristocrat & aristo ouji and want a septum and nose piercings. I don't want it to detract from the elegant vibe that I'm aiming for.

I want to somehow mix the vibe of being doll-like, elegant and and cool, but don't know how facial piercings (especially nose piercings) will affect that. Sometimes people within lolita, visual kei, and other jfashion subcultures have facial piercings, but I rarely see nose piercings so opinions would be very much appreciated.

personally, i dont think piercings make u look trashy as long as u hav jewelry that goes nicely with your coord. if u do get a septum and decide it doesnt look good with lolita/ouji though, you can always just flip it up into your nose as long as its a circular barbell style :]

The issue isnt the piercing itself. Its the jewelry that is available. Horseshoe type jewelry is not at all good looking with lolita and most people just wear the basic titamium or steel (ew) jewelry while they are wearing lolita. If you actually want your piercing to look good with lolita then i can recommend something custom from bvla or maria tash. Anything else is just obviously cheap and e-girl esque. Its definitely possible to have classy piercings though

Those are pretty but they are just going to look like a bedazzled snot rocket about to launch. A more modest piece would make sense. If it's large an it pulls the eye in disrupting the flow of the coordinate it's going to look bad. Piercings aren't trashy by nature but they shouldn't distract or disrupt the entire look.

I feel like quality, size, and metal color really make the difference

Real rose or yellow gold look better than typical basic bitch titanium rings most of the time like >>10745775 said. Titanium can also be anodized in colors like pink, etc that match better with sweet.

People always associate body piercings with oversized, poorly sized, chunky (cheap) jewelry, but there are actually really dainty linked chains and rings that are hardly seen in pics too

When a piece isn't high quality, it cheapens the whole outfit's aesthetic for sure

When I visited Japan a couple years ago I remember one of the shop girls in AP Shinjuku having a large lower lip piercing. She complimented me on my piercings and at the time I had my septum, 3 lip piercings and a bridge piercing :') I think it is just down to personal taste. Some people hate them, others like them.

It's easiest with a septum, with certain rings you can just flip those things upside down and they won't show at all. I have friends who hid septum piercings from their parents for 3+ years with this trick.

This is adjacent to the discussion on whether they look GOOD with lolita, but it's always funny to me when people here get surprised that others have tattoos/piercings/dyed hair. Like, it's an 'alt' fashion, you're gonna attract 'alt' people. It reminds me of the 'lolitas should be lovelies!!' thing.

Piercings, dyed hair and tattoos are and always will be associated with alt fashion and regarded as edgy by the general public, it doesn't matter how many zoomers wear them. Alt fashion being trendy doesn't mean it's normalized or "normie" even.

>> No.10746444

>>10746326
If your doing something with disregard for the norms of what you are participating in it can be both alt and edgy. No, it isn't just "edgy" to wear piercings with frill but proclaiming that one represents the true spirit or it should be just accepted because it's an alt fashion is "edgy" behavior. Accessories, including piercings should look cohesive. If the piercings looked good and were cohesive with the outfit most would scan over the coord and move on.
