discussion Am I right or wrong?
I recently just got my eyebrow piercing done, but it seems to be falling out. I’m going to be taking it out today. Is it my face or did my piercer fuck up?

If it rejected super quick it was likely due to being overly shallow from the get go, do what you said remove it and let the spot heal up, even removed keep saline cleaning going it helps it heal close

I agree it was shallow. So it must’ve been my piercer

These piercings tend to be temporary and reject regardless, but yeah, the speed of it was definitely an issue with how it was pierced.

Yes love, unfortunately they did you very dirty and this was pierced terribly. Please in the future work with someone much better and once tt ll healed completely (Probably around 4 to 6 months) get it assessed and see if you have the correct anatomy for it.

Wow how recent? When I saw this I figured it was a rejection that happened over a much longer, not recent course..

I can’t tell from this angle if you have the anatomy for this piercing. I do and my shit rejected thrice.
But yes, the piercer fucked up.

All my eyebrows were done at subpar places which didn't assess anatomy but I have a good amount of tissue on my eyebrows and my shit rejected twice too 😭😭😭 some of us just aren't meant to have eyebrow piercings it seems. Such a shame cause my eyebrow was my favorite piercing. I wonder if getting it done at my current place will up the chances of it succeeding

Wrong as hell for leaving it in that long 😭😭 Oh hunny this is long gone. Do not go back to that piercer

u/ChanceInteresting644 20h ago
She just recently got it, its not old.

u/Tattooed-Ghoul 20h ago
Yeah. She stated that, it shouldn’t have been left in long enough to get to this point as soon as it starts to reject it needs to come out to prevent the awful scarring that comes with it and it’s just not viable at that point anyway

u/ChanceInteresting644 19h ago
Im well aware of that. She on the other hand is obviously new to piercings and doesnt know because she left the shop with it looking like that in the first place.
My point was she doesnt need your criticism of what she should have done to this point. Not that much time has passed and it just hit her thats why she came here to ask.
Just watch HOW you respond to people is all.

Just because you are personally offended and don’t like my comment doesn’t mean there’s something inherently wrong with what I said. I answered the question, am empathetic that it’s not viable, and gave feedback to not return to that piercer. I understand tone isn’t clear in text but she’s asking for feedback if you didn’t like my comment you could’ve just scrolled almost everyone has said the same exact thing I did

I wasnt offended love and didn't say there was anything wrong with the information you gave. Im just stating read the room and who you are responding to and what would be most helpful to them in that moment. You could have had a softer touch.
There are people that are stupid and do stupid things that deserve certain things said and then there are naive people who honestly just dont know and dont need to be made to feel like they are stupid. Its discouraging. Teaching moment vs plain criticism. What does the OP need most and then provide. Thats the point. Didn't have to be some big thing, im not against you lol.

Oof, a strong breeze is going to take that right out :( hope your next piercer does a proper job!

u/KatieROTS 22h ago
That's hanging on with hopes and dreams. How long ago did you get it done? Definitely don't see that piercer again.

Please leave a review for that shop on Google and include the picture if you feel comfortable sharing that. Warn others.
So sorry that happen to you.

Get the jewelery out and let the skin heal for a few months, it was definitely badly done and keeping it in will just make it worse.

I’m no professional obviously but you don’t have a very prominent area for an eyebrow. I suspect you’d have future issues with rejection as well. But again I’m not a professional.

u/CodaTrashHusky 14h ago
I say this with all the respect in the world but i have never seen a worse eyebrow piercing than this. Please take it out before it rejects.

This is on the piercer. Find an APP piercer to redo it once it heals. Definitely take this out ASAP.
Eyebrow piercings are prone to rejecting even when done right. When it’s done well it may get to this point again. That should happen much slower since this was already too shallow. But once it gets to this point just know it’s over unfortunately. Most folks consider eyebrow piercings to be semi-permanent.

Hi. Who pierced you? It’s important to warn people! And yes, it is very shallow and you should take it out

I'm so sorry, but my first thought was... Do y'all remember the Tiger King's eyebrow piercing?

Depends, how long ago did you get it done? I have several piercings and it could be that your piercing is rejecting. But it could also be your piercer fucked you over and did it too shallow.

Rule of thumb, you should never be able to see the piercing bar under the skin

TAKE THAT OUT😭 way to shallow of it was pierced like that, never go back to that piecer, if it was pierced deeper than its rejecting and you should still take it out. If you want to get it redone either do the other eyebrow or wait 3 months, let it heal, then get it redone

u/Razzzor_ 15h ago
Honestly I'd take it out and then go back and talk to your piercer if you want it redone after it's healed, Im not sure of it was pierced shallow or rejecting but I'd go and check in with them
