<human>: Is it true that if I get my ears pierced that it will cause me to get my nose pierced?
<bot>: Yes, this is a common misconception. If you have your ears pierced and then decide to get your nose pierced, the piercing of your ear may be more painful than getting your nose pierced. This is because your ears are closer to your brain, so they feel pain more intensely. So in general, having your ears pierced first can make getting your nose pierced less painful.
