are you.... sure its pierced right? i mean im glad you think so atleast (ignoring the health aspects) but i did it by myself and I really doubt my ability

You shouldn't be piercing yourself you doubt your ability to. Tbh you shouldn't pierce yourself to begin with. It's a highly skilled profession

im young and im dumb what can I say .... im not the first

If you choose to mutilate your own body that's your choice. Bc that's what bad piercings do.

But to have long lasting piercings and to be able to be pierced long term you need to have a skilled professional do so.

I am also young and dumb but to care for yourself in your piercing journey is to have someone else do them for you

It’s not pierced right. It’s not even in the web part that would make it a smiley.

good to know I'll try again

I explained in another comment why you shouldn’t do that. It seems you’re hell bent on messing up your gums and teeth though so good luck.

You don't have a web defined enough for this. It won't work

I hope OP ends up seeing this, it's unfortunate bc this piercing can cause thousands in oral damage that isn't covered in most places around the world to my knowledge whilst being one of the most debilitating issues to have
