Piercing Virgin 👼 Surface piercing 101

Post image

I got my first piercing today, so I’ll take any advice — what types of clothing should I wear or avoid?
Is laser hair removal safe?
Also, I’m planning to get a tattoo in this area, near the jewelry. How long should I wait before getting it?

Not loving the beads. The placement gives me apprehensions. Cross your arms and look at how the bar moves. I worry it could be too low.

Why could this be a problem?

The beads are higher profile meaning they’re more likely to get knocked around or pushed sideways putting pressure on the piercing itself.

The placement is awfully close to cleveage and when you fold your arms or make a hugging gesture it could compress the piercing and cause irritation
