    Hey guys,

    I used to have a vertical industrial piercing in my left ear, but work forced me to get rid of it.

    I'm thinking of getting another piercing, but I'm not sure what to get. People say an eyebrow ring would suit me (you can see a pic of me from via link in my signature) but I think they're kind of boring. Nose rings do nothing for me. I don't want another vertical industrial either.

    What is getting a piercing thru the skin like? (you know, beneath your lip etc.) Are healing times quick? High infection rates? Basically, I want something weird.

    Any advice?

    Thanks.

    Lip piercings are cool and all, and do heal fast enough (around 2 weeks and youre grand) but they arent really wierd anymore. I myself love the look of anti eyebrows:

    It may feel grand after 2 week's but a lip piercing will not heal in 2 weeks after care must continue for longer. No piercing is weird I think you should have used the word non "mainstream", I would go for a surface piercing on the arm,back of kneck or chest an anti-eyebrow is nice looking too but I'd never get away with that and work.

    Piercing's arent painful so that should never be an issue and healing is grand if you do regular salt water soaks that take like 30 seconds

    Lip is a very nice piercing - I had mine placed so could wear ring or labret stud in it. Am sticking to the ring so far though.

    Have you ever thought about a small orbital?
    They can look pretty damn sweet :)

    What type of piercings are you not allowed have? Facial? Visible?
    You can always go below the neck..

    what in the world is an orbital??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17 DigitalAngel


    Lol it's like having 2 "normal" piercings in your lobe or cart, but a single cbr goes through both.

    You can have it placed along the lobe, conch, helix, or whatever.

    One example is

    but that's not the only type.
