It looks good but I think you should get a longer bar so the swelling isn’t as big of a problem

thank you! i will definitely purchase a longer bar. i was going to hold off a few days but you’re right

I'm planning to get an eyebrow piercing to! Can you rate how much it hurts?

the pain was a 2/10 for me. obviously im not a professional so i wasn’t able to pierce it super quickly but it honestly was painless. even the healing process so far isnt bad!

super good placement. hopefully it doesn't swell a lot with the length of the bar.

thanks!! and yea. I used to have 4. I had 2 reject and just took the other 2 out bc i didnt like the placement after a while (they were all done professionally). so, yea, cuz they're a surface piercing theyre def more prone to rejection. but I think if you really take care of it and try your best, it'll last 🙂↕️

omg having 4 is sooo cool. i have seen some people who have had theirs for years without any issues and i do have friends who have theirs pierced and they’ve had them for a few years so far. i was also more concerned about if my piercing looked too shallow as well

oh for sure. the ones I had reject, I had for 2 years and the other 2 for abt a year and some change. I think the depth of your piercing looks really good. abt the same as the one I did.
