Its fine to have no back! It will stay in cuz your skin just closes up around it! Mine doesnt have a back and it stays in. Ive tryed both, and they r the same. The ball doesnt really do anything, it just kinda hurts to put it in!

Well it kind of depends where you got your nose rings and the quality of the nose rings.
If you got it at Wal-Mart I would even bother putting any of them in my nose.
I would think the surgical steel nose rings are the safest.
I hope that helped.

Surgical steel is also a commonly used material for new piercings. It isn’t porous and therefore doesn’t trap bacteria which could lead to infection.
Gold is also considered a pretty good material for piercings, but it should be 18k or higher.
So, in my opinion you should opt for the surgical steel jewelry for now at least, until you can get a high quality gold piece that you’re confident will stay in place.
