Bridge Piercing

A bridge piercing is a body piercing through the bridge of the nose. Basically, it is located between the eyes. This is a very painless piercing, normally described as "a slight pressure", but less painful than piercing of the ear lobe. The head being such a vascular area, during the piercing a good deal of bleeding may occur. This piercing is also called the "earl" after the man who popularized it. It is mostly found on "collectors" as it is an obvious and therefore "uncommon" piercing. Of very high importance with this piercing is cleanliness: your nasal passages pass below it, so it is of utmost importance that you avoid infection to this area. 14 gauge (1.6 mm) is the most common gauge for this particular piercing. See also Body Piercing Aftercare for more information.
