Info on snake bite piercings please?
I am thinking of getting a snake bite piercing with my friend next month. Would really appreciate anything about how much it hurts, the care, the risks etc from a person who has had it done and their point of view (I have also been doing my own research) but just want a few pointers and opinions. I'm a wimp so I bet I won't, but thanks anyway!
Aw Abby how cute! I got my ears pierced for the 3d time last year (they kept closing) and I got a lolly pop too!
Thanks SO much MetalFace! I will be sure to e-mail you, thanks a million!
Hey there, I've got snakebites, so I think I can answer all of your Q's here (yay me! lol)
THE PAIN FACTOR- On the scale on 1-10 (10 being the highest) a lip piercing scores about a 2. However this does depend somewhat on the size you get pierced at. The bigger the needle=the more painful the piercing. I had mine done at seperate times. One was pierced at a 1.2 the other at a 1.6 and the 1.6 deff hurt more. Also, you should note that you will be getting two piercings, so you should prepare yourself to feel twice the pain!
THE AFTERCARE- You should clean your piercings twice daily for the recommended healing time. To clean them you should use warm Water with sea salt. Sea salt can be bought cheaply from health food stores.
THE RISKS- There are risks associated with lip piercings and these are the erosion of tooth enamel, the receeding of gums and just general mouth problems- these sound pretty scary but are actually avoidable. You can wear bio lip jewerlly (which is made of plasticy type stuff) which isnt so harsh on your teeth as metal is. Usually though placement can solve all of these problems. You just need to be pierced high up enough to avoid your piercings scraping your teeth.
TIPS- Start off with labret bars not lip rings. Lip rings tend to bend the hole, whereas labret bars help to set a straight, round hole. Also lymph can easily get dragged into the piercing by the ring. Overall lip rings are detrimental to a fresh piercing- labret bars are much better.
Okay so there you go! If you have any more Q's I'd be happy to help you!
Good luck =)
