I hear you, man. I don't know how different it is to deal with freshly pierced ears compared to nose rings since I got my ears pierced when I was 2 years old. Just keep cleaning them. It'll be worth the trouble when you don't have scars from infections.
I did get my nose pierced last March and I had stretched ears until I made a deal with my mom to let me pierce my nose if I downsize my ears.
Contrary to popular belief, my ears did shrink back to normal size (I stretched to a pretty "small" size: I stopped at 0g) and my nose piercing had a little trouble healing for a while but it was fixed with washing it twice a day with salt water.

And nose hoop. (and my dog)

I'm gonna get the holes that I've had pierced twice (5 months and 5 years old) redone soon. They'll be done at home though. I do have one ear piercing already and can't wait for this one. Mine were done a second time and little bit higher but due to the major bleeding it did for about 2 months I had to let them close :(

Now just if I can talk my parents into a nose ring or snake bites....whivhll never happen and due to my career choice, will never happen.

(By the way, you're pretty harajukukiki)

Nope...it's a medical career and I go to a medical academy....it wouldn't fly

Tssshhh I haven't bought anything for my ears in soooo long! I first got my first earrings when I was 4 but at the British College we had to take them so they ended up closing again and eergh it hurt so bad! At around 10 I pierced them again and at 14 I pierced the second row. Later on I managed to open the very first holes again although they are only a couple of mm away from the others. So basically I could use two sets of earrings on the zone of the first piercings eheheh

But I want more but I just dont find time to go and do it...

@Rarity: If your holes were used for more than 3 months, it is very hard for them to close up again. And earrings dont have to be big.

My earring set, as an example, are really simple. I have small rings, little stars, little "jewls"-like-things, and little balls. Then I have only 2 pairs that are bigger. Ones were my aunt's present: they are made of gold with a little clear jewl that hangs on the bottom and the gold part does these little spikes as if it was a star and the jewl is on the middle. They have around 1.5cm of height, not much. The other pair was made by a very close teacher and it basically consists of a string with clear beads and an origami tsuru at the end in recicled paper, they are probably 5cm long. I usually use the small ones because they are more comfortable...
