    Hey,I was thinking of getting my eyebrow done.But I work nights in a cocktail bar which I wouldn't think is face piercing friendly..so would there be any possible way I could take it out a day or do after getting pierced?Or do I need it in for a few weeks?:confused:

    You'd need it in for more than a few weeks I'd imagine. If you took it out a few days after it was done it'd close up almost straight away, not to mention that you're not supposed to be messing with the jewellery in a brand new piercing, you're supposed to leave it be until it's fully healed.

    yeh i'd be leaving it in for a minimum of two months tbh.

    you might get away with sticking a plaster over it

    I doubt ill get away with a bandage for two months,thnaks for the suggestion though.

    Mention it to your bosses, ask them if there would be a problem with it!

    A clear plastic retainer, or a clear glass retainer will do the trick.

    Make sure it is curved as not to agitate the piercing.
    Can be found on various website...

    Still not a good idea to go trying to swap out the jewellery in a fresh piercing tho!

    Better than taking it out for ages then trying to force it back in.
    Maybe even get the piercer to pierce it using the would be glass retainer.

    I had to leave mine in for 3 months minimum, but if you go back to the piercer after 2 weeks, they will put a clear bar in for you, and small balls. That way it wont be noticed.
    Or just buy a small skintone plaster.

    No it would close up plus taking it out all the time isn't a good idea it could get infected ... mine did and i looked after it so well i just had to leave it out in the end. have a scar from it as well.
