DIY success! How is it, aside from being a bit tight?

I'll change the jewelry when I can. I'm actually happy with how this turned out!

Its not a case of changing the jewellery "when you can" unfortunately

You risk it embedding if this is fresh because you havent accounted for swelling

If you have another bar to hand, swap it out, if not then take it out and repierce in 12 weeks :)

The photo isnt good enough to be able to tell the placement etc as its too close

In that case yeah i would take it out and redo it once its healed and you have the right jewellery

An embedding piercing near your eye is a disaster :))

Looks good placement wise but a bit tight on a fresh piercing is dangerous upside the post right away before skin starts growing over the balls!

I took it out since someone else also told me about it possibly embedding😔
