POV: Lizzo praises Kim K for making nose rings “a trend” 🙄🤮but Desi’s BEEN wearing these type of rings for centuries.
The Mughal Empire carried the practice of nostril piercing to India (Bangladesh, Pakistan ect were all one back then) in the 1500s. It then became a common practice in South Asia that persists to this day. We call them Naths or Nakar phul.
For many women, nose piercings are a coming-of-age ritual of sorts. It signifies womanhood, elegance, and for some even a sense of rebellion.
It is especially significant during wedding ceremonies. Hindu tradition dictates that on the wedding night, the bride wears a nose chain which is hooked by a chain to either the earring or hair. The nose chain is worn by women as to show respect and devotion to Goddess Parvati as she is considered the Goddess of marriage.
Nose piercings are as much a part of our tradition as bangles, a mangalsutra or a bindi.
It’s scientifically proven that if you see a Kardash wear something trendy 9/10 they’ve stolen it from another culture.
