get my monroe pierced

i hope this dosen’t hurt :P

I want to get my monroe pierced to make a statement about piercings in general. I want to prove that not everyone with a facial piercing is a “freak”; I want to show that I can still be a “good girl” and have this. I also want to show another side of my personality and show that there’s a lot more to me than people see simply at a glance. I want to show that I’m different and do something “bad”.
But, I’m nervous about scarring and manipulating my “natural beauty”. I’m also afraid of the pain/swellig involved and whether I’ll really regret this or not.
So who knows….

This was my first piercing, other than a misguided ear piercing when I was 16(!) that got infected and grew over, so I was a little bit nervous going in (needles and blood and pain, oh my!). But it went beautifully and now I’ve finally got a foreign object embedded in my face and a highly disturbed mother, so all is well.

6 MONTHS LATER:

I’ve got another on the other side! Hurrah.

i finally got my monroe done yesterday! it didnt hurt at all. i saw a lot of people that said it hurt but for me i didnt even realize it had gone through yet. i absoutley love it. although it didnt bother me till today the back is uncomfortably hitting my gums but im hoping its just because the bar on the piercing is too big. anyways if u want it, get it!

ive always wanted it done so i need to get some balls and go get it pierced, oh and some money would help too

I had this done a few days ago. It didn’t hurt at all but I knocked it this morning and it bled like a bitch. I had it pierced with a retainer which I wouldn’t recommend, because it looks like a big zit. Other than that, zexxxxy.

I got it done yesterday
and this time it didn’t hurt or swell at all.
Doing it with my friends made for a great story,
but having a professional do it this time worked out a lot better, it’s most definetly the way to go.

So as a Christmas gift, she gave me sea salt, sanitizer, cotton balls, and studs…with a picture of Marylin Monroe, all as hints that she is taking me to get mine redone =.D

but it was a bit crooked and I had to take it out. I loved it so much, it was really depressing.

I’m having second thoughts anyway. Maybe I look better without any facial piercings.
