How do you remove a nostril screw? I got it pierced at Blackstar but really don't have time to make it down there and it needs to be out as soon as possible for work.

Most nostril screws are shaped so that if you sight along the straight part, with the visible end toward you, the curly part will curve clockwise away from the straight part.

Pull the straight part out so it is lying flush against the side of your nose. On the left nostril, it should be pointing back toward your cheek, on the right, forward toward the tip of your nose. The curved part is still through the piercing with the open side of the curve on the bottom. Pull the bottom of the straight portion, where it bends, down. The curved part of the nostril screw should rotate out of the piercing like a half-ring.

Insertion is accomplished by reversing these actions. Hope this helps.
