How do you pierce your smiley?

Answer 1

I got my smiley piercing a couple months ago.

they had me hold up my lip by myself..

and they put the needle through & then slid in the jewelry.

Although mine could of been different because i got a barbell instead of a beaded ring. (Its not different just cause the ring is different-kimmy)

I did mine myself, easy. It's sooo easy there is like hardly any veins or dangers in your smiley.

It's virtually painless and you just get a needle try and get one thicker than your actual barbel or ring, (you wouldn't need to get a bigger needle if you just would get the right one... they sell them online at painfulpleasures.com they are cheap! I would prefer the cannula piercing needle for first timers, its a European method, if you don't like that one just get a usual hollow one. get the same gauge needle as the ring, its hollow for a reason. XD - Kimmy. btw whoever wrote this part is stupid and doesnt know what they are talking about. ) lift your lip up aim and push it straight through it should make like a popping or pinging noise twice because there is two layers. MAKE SURE YOU USE A CLEAN NEEDLE AND JEWELERY and make sure the needle goes through in a straight line otherwise yours will be wonky :')

once the needles through leave it for a while let it breath, if its bigger than your jewelery this is where it pays off, because your jewelery should just slide in, but if its smaller keep wiggling it around in the hole and pulling it up and down to try and stretch it so your jewelery will go through.

make sure when you put it through you do it quickly otherwise the hole will heal up in like 30 seconds as it is so newly pierced.

Clean it regularly with 1 cup of hot water mixed with 1tsp of sea salt, brush your teeth vigorous and brush your smiley softly as bacteria builds up on that. (Never use any kind of toothpaste that has whitening in it after getting a new oral piercing or else it will get infected. and listerine is better than salt water use it after everytime you smoke, eat or drink anything besides water, brush teeth regularly. - Kimmy.)

You don't need to take it out while you eat, but you can if you want to but I suggest not to for the first 2 weeks, if you don't want your parents to see, just get a long lip bar and put it through... if not a straight double ended balled barbel for in the day and I suggest a ring for at night, as it lets your piercing breathe more and its fun to play with, make sure the balls are on tightly so you don't choke on them in your sleep :)

hopee i helped (you didnt, XD.)
