whatever you do, don’t argue or rebel and try to do things behind his back or anything crazy like that.
Give him your reasons of why you want to get it. and give him more than “I just want it and it will look good.” why will it look good? will it compliment you general looks and beauty? do some research online. parents want to know that you’re responsible before you jump into something you may regret. he has reasons for saying no, he’s not just a mean old man who wants to make you miserable. although that is a kind of crude stereotype. look up things like the healing time for it, the possible dangers of it (don’t focus too much on them, and try to find solutions to the dangers.), proper care for it after the piercing is done. that kind of stuff. be patient. and DO NOT say “Well, Olivia got hers pierced!” trust me parents hate to hear that. and if he still refuses, wait a while. maybe a month or two and ask again. and prove him that you are responsible, keep your room clean, keep you grades up, and even try to make a deal if you need to. like “if he doesn’t have to ask you to clean your room and you make honor roll he’ll let you get it”
good luck :]

In your slideshow include:
– It’s just a tiny stud that’s hardly noticeable unless your up close.
– A small diamond on your nose does not represent somebody’s personality or how slutty someone is.
– It’s just a small hole which when you take the stud out, will close up and nobody will know. It’s not like your scarring your body.
– You feel you are both old enough and responsible enough to make a good decision and are responsible enough to take care of the healing of the stud properly.
– It’s better than a tattoo. It is not permanent.
– It looks pretty on most people.
My math teacher last year has her nose pierced. She’s definitely not slutty.
Tell your dad to cool it with the stereotypes and generalization. I would understand if he didn’t approve because he thinks you’re too young, but the sIut stereotype isn’t right. In my opinion, you guys are old enough to get them done. I had friends at 13 years old who were getting them done then — and none of them were sIuts.
Ha ha i had the exact problem, but the way it worked for me is because are pastors daughter in law has her nose priced and i said dad come on we all know she isn’t gonna go to hell and shes even the pastors daughter it cant be that bad but lucky for me my mom didn’t care so i did it my self and when he saw it he really didn’t mind i was shocked he just eventually got use to it. Just tell him youre dad please this will be the last piecing i get and i will really try bringing up my grades or what ever and this could be bad but just do it and see what he says take a chance 🙂 good luck hope he changes his mind.
