When you get your nose pierced, you're left with the adamant instructions not to touch it. Once you finally can, you'll probably want to change out the basic nose ring you were pierced with and replace it with the ring of your choice. Many of the nose rings you can choose from are shaped like a hook, and as a result, they may be just a little more challenging than putting in your standard nose ring.
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Your hands should always be clean when handling your piercing and jewelry.
Cleanse both the hooked nose ring and your piercing with a lubricant or antimicrobial soap solution.
Remove your current nose ring and place it off to the side.
