My niece just pierced her nose! It is a tradition practiced for thousands of years. Nose pierce or Nose ring is called mukuthi (mookuthi) in Tamil and in South India we pierce our right side of the nose while the North Indians pierce the left side. My grandmother, mother and all my sisters have their nose pierced. Every time someone in the family get nose piercing, there will be a celebration!!! I love nose ring it has a special place in our face!
