No, D.I.Y. piercing kits are the bain of a professional body piercers existance. First and foremost folks buy these kits, go home, attempt to pierce themselves, screw up doing it, then come into the piercing studio with an infected mess with junk jewellery hanging our of this misplaced hole and want it fixed. Now my rant is over here's the real goods. D.I.Y. kits are for ear lobes only and not intended to be used for any other body location.

No. Plain and simple, no. Too much risk of infection, injury, death, disease, etc. Dont do it. Spend the 20$ and have it done.

What will safety pins do if you use them to pierce Your Top Lip What Could Happen?

Using a safety pin to pierce your lip (Or any other part of your body) is safe PROVIDED that you first sterlise it, like over an open flame and then dip it into something like iodine. Before piercing your self though have a good think about what you are doing - and be careful !________________________ Do NOT listen to the original answer. Piercing yourself is always a dumb idea. Piercing yourself with a safety pin is an even dumber idea. You could hit a nerve or a major vein and permanently mess up your face. Safety pins aren't a safe metal to use like titanium alloy like a lot of "training jewelry" is made of and it could irritate the piercing. Plus you'd look like a total doof with a red, pus-oozing, badly done piercing sticking out of your mouth. Listen to either answer you want. There are risks. Using a piercing kit is probably a better idea than using a safety pin.
