How to pierce your nails

Sometimes, we look for ways to jazz up our look without fully committing. That could mean temporarily dying our hair a different color or rocking a new accessory for a little while, but one of the best ways to add some flair to our every day is with an exciting nail look. Thankfully, not all styles of nail art need to be ornate and complicated to leave a lasting impression. Adding a little bit of bling to your fingertips can go a long way.
And it's not as expensive as it sounds. With just a few items, your nail game can bump up a level with their own little set of blinged-out studs, hoops, or charms. Just be mindful of where you pierce, as puncturing your actual fingernail could be painful and is not recommended.
