Usually people with piercings are considered Gothic or emo, or some other stereotype. It makes people look unprofessional if they have nose, tongue or belly button piercings. It also is unsanitary because they can fall off into food if your looking into the food industry. So if you happen to have piercings, I would recommend taking them off when going to an interview.

Not all body piercings would affect your ability to obtain a job. For example, most part-time and hourly jobs don't care as long as you replace your piercings with a clear jewelry piece, or take the piercings out all together. However, if you have multiple facial piercings you may be falsley judged as someone who is lazy, rebellious, and/or a bad worker. Not always, but sometimes, these prejudices may happen.

If you're going for a professional job, like a doctor, lawyer, teacher, nurse, secretary, or any other "salaried" job, piercings are really not a good idea. Clients and even the boss may associate a lot of piercings with immaturity. Most of these careers require you to take your piercings out all together.

Does navel shape actually affect whether or not a piercing would be ejected over time?

Actually, it is more a problem of how much skin is available in the piercing area, and how thick that skin is. Thin skin is more likely to allow the piercing to eject. Check with a licensed body piercer and let them assess your navel skin where the piercing would be.

I bite my bottom lip a lot on the inside to the point where it bleeds like everyday and I was wondering if this would affect a piercing or whether they would even do it with my lip in that state?

If you're biting your lip like that I don't think that they're right for you..... It would really aggravate your piercing to get hit all of the time. It also wouldn't be pleasant to have two wounds ( bitten lip and piercing) healing at the same time. I would get another piercing or wait until you kick the bad habit.


Does getting a tattoo or piercing affect your brain?

No. It will only affect the top layers of skin. It doesn't affect behaviour. If someone displays changes after having a tattoo than I would suggest that these problems were already part of their psyche.
