Nose ring jewelry has become a fashion statement for those seeking a little more edge then the traditional ear piercing.

Jewelry styles compliment different locations on the nose and designs are suited to every unique personality.

Because the nose is one of the most prominent features on the face it is important to choose nose rings that flatter your features while taking advantage of the many shapes, sizes and colors available.

One of the most popular styles in nose ring jewelry is the captive bead ring. This circular ring features a bead that holds the ring securely but is easy to remove.

Curved barbells are the most popular style for nose piercings that go through the nasal septum and for those that go through the top of the nose in the area between the eyes (bridge piercings).

For a barely there look, nose studs and nose screws offer a more sophisticated look and are more appropriate for those working in an office environment or uncomfortable with larger more attention seeking nose rings.

You can choose between real diamonds, emeralds, sapphires, rubies and other gemstones for stud style rings. The best materials used to make nose rings are titanium, platinum, gold, silver and surgical steel. Shapes including hearts, circles, musical notes and stars are among varied styles now available in Nose ring jewelry.
