What does a nose piercing feel like?

Okay, so I've had my earlobes pierced twice (because they got plugged), and my ears were very sensitive, and I no longer wear earrings. The actually piercing didn't hurt at all for me, so would it hurt like that? I've also had an IV which is a painful shot that pumps water into your blood (when I had my tonsils taken out), when I was done, it wasn't too bad.(just during) So, does it hurt more like an ear piercing, or an IV? Or do you have another example?
