1. Yes it will hurt for a few moments to get it done. Then afterwards it will be sore and tender for a few days. You can expect it to swell for a few days.

2. No your monroe is not more likely to get infected since it's in your mouth. It's more likely to become infected because girls tend to touch their piercings with dirty hands, wear makeup far too closely around the piercing, and almost always change their jewelry too soon. If you dont make these mistakes, and you follow your piercer's cleaning instructions you should be fine. If you can't behave, you will have a red ugly piercing and run the risk of infection. It's your choice.

3. Weather or not you scar depends on your skin. Some girls can wear a piercing for years, take it out and let it close and have no mark at all. Others can take the best care in the world of the piercing and end up with an obivous mark. No one can tell you which you're going to be. So since you can't be sure, it's best to assume there is going to be a scar and make a decision based on that idea.

4.If your piercing is badly placed or you do not wear jewelry that fits correctly, it can damage your gums and teeth. This is why it's important to have a reputable piercer work on you AND to buy properly measured and fitted jewelry. Just going to the mall and buying whatever says its for a monroe does not work for everyone. Know what you are buying so you get a piece that fits well.

5. I don't think a monroe would be spectacular on you. Monroes are one of those piercings that REALLY need to look perfect. Otherwise it looks like you just got one because they're incredibly popular right now. There is a chance that I'm mistaken, so instead of listening to what other people say, why not see for yourself?

Get out your eyeliner and a mirror. Draw various dots in the place where you think your monroe should go. If you draw and draw and draw and you still can't find one spot that makes you absolutely crazy about getting a monroe, then it's not the piercing for you. If you find a spot that makes you want to drive to the piercing shop right this second, then you should get yourself a monroe.

If you don't get a monroe, check out www.bmezine.com. There are galleries of all sorts of piercings there. You can then look at pictures and choose something else that flatters your face. I think you'd look great with a nostril piercing. And with the rate at which they're becomming accepted, you might not even have to take it out when you head out to get a job.  

Answer 3

1. Eh, most piercings are a pinch, but don't worry its not to bad

2. Just like any other piercing there's a chance it can get infected, but just because its near or in your mouth doesn't mean its more likely

3. Probably i mean it is a whole through your skin, so yes

4. No its placed especially so it wont damage your gums or your teeth.

5. I think it would, because your face is totally clear so it would look awesome .. oh and i LOVE your hair; can i ask what shampoo you use? hahaha .. probably sounds weird ..

Good luck with asking your mom.

Answer 4

Pierce your sack.

Answer 5

1. Yes, but only for a moment.

2. Yes, but if you follow your piercer's aftercare instructions you should be fine.

3. Yes, it is likely.

4. It can, you must wear appropriately sized jewelry to avoid this.

5. I cannot look at your picture from where I'm at, sorry! ^_-
