when you get your lip pierced by a professional they do not use a gun they use clamps and a needle they push the needle through your lip very fast i have i have had my lip pierced 4 times and i watched the piercer the whole time GO TO A PROFESSIONAL THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING!!!! 2nd answer: I pierced my lip myself and my tips would be, get an actual piercing needle. They are so much easier to use. But, if you can't get one use a thick sewing needle. I used one. Numb BOTH sides of your lip with ice. Then just stick the needle through. If you hesitate it will just hurt more. Once it is through wait maybe one hour. Remember to move around the needle in between the waiting time. Then slowly as you pull the needle out place the lip ring in. I suggest studs. You can put rings in about 3-4 weeks after it has healed with no problem.
You can only use a New needle for piercing. and they are sterilized in a lab.
-Mouthwash with alcohol -peroxide -alcohol -Don't put chapstick/lip balm around the actual piercing. You can use it just not on it.
you should use a stud
Generally the size is 18g~16g for female lip piercing, this depends on the jewellery type and style desired. 16g~14g for male lip piercing, this can again vary depending on the style and design of the jewellery.
Can I use Orajel before I get snakebite piercings?
no A sewing needle is a sharpened piece of metal. If you try to shove a sewing needle through skin, you will cause a lot of damage, which will in turn lead to longer heals and possible scarring. When a piercer does the piercing, they use a hypodermic needle. It is a hollow needle with razor sharp edges on the point. They are designed to slice and separate the skin, causing as minimal damage as possible. When looking to have a piercing, consult a professional piercer. Piercing is not a do it yourself project.
they use a piercing gun or a needle
yeah but its probably not the best thing to do.
you can use coco butter
You can get an infection no matter where you pierce, that is why piercing should be done by professional body piercers working in licensed and inspected facilitates not at home in the bathroom.
Go see a professional body piercer, don't screw around with your piercing if you have no clue as to what you are doing.
