Does it hurt compared to getting your ears done? I have double in both my ears, and those didn't really hurt.

Mine didn't hurt at all! especially if you numb it with ice first. My friend peirced mine with a saftey pin and I couldn't feel a thing! and trust me I'm a wuse when it comes to pain! Just take a pain reliever before you get it done. It'll be fine... If you do think it'll hurt keep in mind the pain will only last for like 10sec. You won't feel a thing after that.

I went into getting my nose pierced the same way and the pain actually shocked me. I don't feel much pain, my industrial bar tickled ... but God help me I was crying and got light headed with my nose. For me, the feeling was like a sneeze stuck right in that spot, I hate sneezing and it hurts so that hurt like a mofo. I have four cartilage piercings and my lobes, and none of them hurt but this was a different story. The fact that the nerves are connected to your tear ducts means pain is more likely where as ears are sort of on their own. Expect the best, prepare for the worst is the best advice I can give you about a nose piercing ... If you go into it and get shocked you might jerk and move the ring or needle. Be calm but don't be talking while it's being done because when your facial muscles move your nose moves too. Keep still and calm and don't move too fast. My piercer asked if I was going to pass out because he's had the strongest people with piercings everywhere pass out when getting their nose pierced.
I wouldn't go as far as saying it's like getting punched but it is a slightly longer pinching feeling. Pinch your nose for 10 seconds and that is about what it's like. Piercing pain varies by person but you can get a general idea of it will feel like if you do that.

Everyone has a different pain tolerances. Some people who have answered already have said it hurts like hell and for otherw it was no big deal.
You'll only know once you do it, but as with any piercing it does hurt, at least a little!
By the way, I'm getting my nose pierced tomorrow or some other time this week. I'm a little nervous but it will heal and you will be fine.

Well it definitely hurts more than getting your ears pierced, but it only hurts at the moment you get it done so it's a whole 5 seconds of pain. I think the amount of pain too will probably depend on the gauge you get or in other words how big the actual jewelry is. Whatever side you get it on the opposite eye will water too, it's kind of odd, but it happens to everyone.

I don't know where a couple of the previous posters got their noses done, but in my experience, it was nothing really. All I felt was a slight pinch/prick feeling and it was pierced. It does hurt a little to get the nose screw put in but it's not bad. Fore warning...it is painful for about the next week. No matter how hard you try to be careful about your piercing, you will inevitably hit or bump it and it will hurt but, overall, it's nothing major.

My sister got her nose pierced and she said it really doesnt hurt. At first you feel a slight pinch and then its over. It will prolly hurt a couple weeks after because its not healed yet and you are gunna end up hitting it. Just take care of it and everything should be fine!

Africana, very Africana, my ancesestors use to have this done many, many years ago, the nose doesn't have alot of nerve endings running through it, so after the initial shock, it should be fine. Just like with your ears, make sure to keep the area clean to ensure no infection sets in.

It hurts really quick like getting ur ears pierced. Your eyes water but it's over soooo fast.

I just had my nose done today on a scale of 1 to 10 its about a two. It does make your eyes water but thats about it. Your nose is a little sore after it however.

it hurts worse than getting your ears pierced but it goes so fast-it also hurts more than navel piercing-i actually just took my nose piercing out and letting close---i had a thin one in and at the end of this is actually a little thicker-well it didn't want to come out when i wanted to change it - finally got it out by it breaking but couldn't get new one in - so its closing ...good luck

It hurts, but its done and over with quickly. Usually your eyes water a bit and you feel a slight stinging and that's that.
Be sure to go a reputable, clean and safe piercer and be sure that you take care of your piercing. Good luck.
