    hey all,
    im planning to have my eyebrow done in the summer when school finishes so i will be able to take it in and out during the nxt year of school.

    thing is i have a weekend job in a supermarket which ill be working in the summer and i dont think they let them. i have to ask.

    i was wondering would it be possible to take it in and out when needed for work or will it lead to damage?

    thanks,
    xxboylarzxx

    I left mine in for two months before I started changing it, but then it grew out in September(got it done in January), I'd advise to leave it in for at least 6 weeks before yo go fiddling with it. But who am I to give advice.:o

    perfect thanks.:)
    can you get the clear bars in straight away?or do i have to go metal for 2 months?



    i might just get the normal metal one done. not much the manager can do if its done :p

    Meh I waited only 2weeks for my lip before l changed to to a clear bar and It healed grand D

    Please don't be advocating/recommending bad practice. You really should wait 6-8 weeks before changing jewellery to give the piercing time to heal.

    If the piercer is willing to pierce you with the jewellery that's one thing, but please do not go against the aftercare guidelines.

    You could also be asked to be pierced with PTFE which is safe and clear and for work take the balls off.... Only some pierce with PTFE though but AFAIK snakebite will do it.

    what is your obsession with PTFE

    Nothing but I use it with everything for school :D I would say Bioplast but I would most likely be eaten by everyone here unlike on bodyjewellery forum where at least there open to things.... :(

    T&P here are very pc IMO

    If I was to be 100 % honest I would recomment waiting a few weeks and changing it then but then I eat freaked at over it :confused:

    Cant remember how long I waited with my eyebrow. Definitely wasnt as long as I was supposed to but thats my eyebrow so obviously I cant tell people not to wait as that would be wrong. You already waited years to get it done. A few more weeks wont kill ya.

    its supervalu.
    i will get it done cause the handbook has nothng about eyebrow peircings your just not aloud wear them if your work with any fresh food which i dont.

    hopefully they dont give out too bad ,cause im not going to take it out with the risk of infection:)

    its looking better for me now then:) haha

    one more thing im 17 will there be any issues with getting it done on the day


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    Here is my advice to you; I would get the eyebrow pierced and get a standard piece of silver coloured jewelery and get a plastic balls put on to the piece of jewelery. The balls are not cheap. I think they are about €10 for two. Also get it done in a respectable studio like Wildcat in Stephens green shopping centre, Snakebite in middle abbey street or Bodyshock in temple bar [the street to the left of the central bank].


  • Registered Users Posts: 172 ✭✭xxboylarzxx


    my mate wants to go to wildcat cause he knows people who reccomended it he is gettin a labret or somthing.thanks fot the advice.

    perfect!can these plastic balls be removed and for example screw on metal ball when im not working?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    perfect!can these plastic balls be removed and for example screw on metal ball when im not working?

    Yes they can. Ask the piercer can you buy the balls separately. For wildcat it wouldn't do any harm bringing an Id because they could ask for Id.


  • Registered Users Posts: 172 ✭✭xxboylarzxx


    thanks a lot i wouldnt mind paying a good bit extra for the balls as long as it doesnt mean taking the bar out:)

    im 17 do i have to get concent? by any chance?

    For wildcat all you need is id :)

    Also balls are pretty cheap like as in 1-2 euro :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    No, 17 is the age to get it done in Wildcat without consent but bringing Id would do no harm because you will definitely be able to get it done.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13

    Clear ones are not I nearly had to pay €10 for the things.


  • Registered Users Posts: 172 ✭✭xxboylarzxx


    great thanks for all the help:)

    Automatically deducing someone's sexuality from a piercing? Keep your rubbish to yourself. First and last warning as you've been quite offensive already


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,544 ✭✭✭hitlersson666


    If you look online the balls can come cheap (that sounds wrong now :o)

    And piercing's say nothing about your sexuality :o
