So i'm 14 year old girl n i just pierce my lip at home and i when to buy the ring at hot topic, is that bad?

Answer 1

well, there is a high risk of infection with any piercing, but seeing as though I doubt that it was a sterile needle that you used, I would say you won't have it very long before it gets infected.

Answer 2

The rings at Hot Topic are good, you shouldn't worry about that.

What you should be considering is:

1. Was the needle you used to pierce your lip sterile (completely clean)?

2. Do you have the proper equipment to take care of your piercing over the next few days (rubbing alcohol, mouthwash, etc.)?

3. Did you get your parents permission first? If not: How are you going to deal with the consequences?

Answer 3

In my cuontry we piece eachoter all time. You need ring before piece or it closet on you.

Answer 4

Home is not the best place to do it, piercing infections are nasty!You should have gone to a professional!

            Why didn't you ask befor you did this!Too late now!

Answer 5

Now is the perfect time to ask for advice, isn't it.

Answer 6

More like UNSAFE. I would suggest taking the piercing out before any infection can occur. Then simply go to a professional and get it done correctly. Trust me, anything worth getting done right is worth waiting for.

Btw, most stores like Hot Topic, or the local hair store that sales jewelry, sell the type that are cheaper, made of cheap metal and meant for piercings that have been in for more than 60days (the length of time they take to completely heal). New jewelry for body piercings should ALWAYS be purchased where licensed professional piercers  are located.

I'm not a professional but I have enough piercings to know better. Good Luck =)
