Trending Gold Nose Stud Styles for 2025: How to Select the Right One For You
Nose piercings have moved beyond a simple trend–they’ve become a symbol of individuality, self-expression, and style. Whether you want to enhance your appearance or make a bold statement subtly, gold nose studs are a go-to option for everyone in 2025. Their versatility, combined with the timeless appeal of gold, makes them an ideal choice for anyone looking to add flair to their piercing. From sleek and minimalist to bold and detailed, there’s a gold nose stud to fit everyone’s taste. In this guide, we’ll explore the different types of trending gold nose stud styles for 2025 and provide tips on how to pick the right one for you.
Threadless Gold Nose Studs
Whether you’re new to nose piercings or simply want something low-maintenance, minimalist threadless gold studs are an easy way to add a touch of refinement to your look. They suit almost any face shape, especially those with more symmetrical or oval faces. They also provide a clean, balanced look without overpowering your natural features.
Nose studs, particularly threadless ones, are more challenging to insert and remove, but they are great for healing fresh nostril piercings. Additionally, they offer the comfort that you won’t have to worry about loose ends or jewelry falling out, as they are plenty secure.
Threadless nose studs are also very versatile. If you don’t want a tiny, minimalist end, opt for something bold and flashy, like an ornate bezel-set gem.
Nose Bones
Nose bones are another type of nostril stud. These look like straight barbells, but they are not. A nose bone, instead, has a gem or design on one end and a straight post. At the end of the post, there’s a tiny ball or disc that’s a larger gauge than the nostril piercing. This helps ensure the jewelry stays in place and doesn’t easily slide out your nose. A risk of this jewelry style is that consistently playing with the jewelry or switching it out often can cause your piercing to stretch.
Nostril Screws
Nostril screws will never go out of style because of the versatility they offer to nose piercings. The options are endless, whether you want a gemstone like an opal, a cubic zirconia for some bling, or a shape like a star. Nostril screws are nose studs with pre-bent curves in the post so they hide in your nostril and stay in place easily. They’re also relatively simple to take in and out, so they’re great options for occasionally switching up jewelry.
In 2025, flowers are trending, so don’t shy away from our 14-karat tri petal clear CZ nose screw or our 14-karat daisy nose screw in either gold or white gold.
L-Bends
If you constantly change your nose jewelry, consider something easy to remove and replace. An L-bend is a nose stud shaped like an L. The bend in the post helps keep it in place in your nose. You just have to ensure you don’t buy one that’s too long and sticks out too far, so measure beforehand or ask your piercer to suggest a length. L-bends are also known to be more comfortable than nostril screws, and they sit snugly against your nostril for a secure fit.
L-bends offer great versatility, as you can opt for something flashy like our 14-karat gold disk with aqua CZ or something more minimal like our 14-karat gold L bend CZ bezel nose ring.
Not Feeling A Stud? Go with a Hoop
Not everyone wants to wear a stud in their nostril piercing, and that’s okay. We’ve got something for everyone. For those who are steadfast in their desire to wear hoops, we’ve got tons of gold seamless rings, captive bead rings, and more for you to choose from.
How to Select the Right One for You
When it comes to picking the right gold nostril piercing jewelry for you, whether you opt for a a stud or a hoop, it’s important that you take into consideration your lifestyle and the type of gold color you want to wear. Think about whether you’ll be changing your jewelry out often or keeping the same piece in for a length of time. If it’s the former, opting for a type of nose stud that’s easier to insert and remove would be best.
At Urban Body Jewelry, many of our nostril piercing studs (and hoops) come in a variety of gold color ways. You will need to decide whether you want rose gold, white gold, or yellow gold. To help you decide, consider whether you’re a gold or silver-toned person. If you want the quality of gold, but the color of silver, go with white gold. If you have a warmer skin tone, yellow gold often compliments it nicely. If you have cool skin tones, rose gold works well to highlight the pinkish undertones. And if you have neutral skin tone, anything will work well for you.
But don’t let us guide you completely. It’s fun to mix and match and experiment with which gold styles you’re drawn to. Buy a few styles to play around with before deciding which one you like the best, and soon you’ll be a trendsetter in 2025 in no time.
