How do i take my Monroe piercing out?

Answer 1

The reasons you should not attempt to pierce your self should be obvious, but for those who think it's a "DIY" project, here's some food for thought.

Infection and contraction of MRSA, HIV, Meningitis, Hepatitis and Tetanus are all very serious health issues, MRSA is an antibiotic resistant bacteria that can in most cases land the unlucky individual in the hospital (and has been responsible for serious deformities and deaths). These infections has been caused by using unsterilized equipment and materials. Sterilization is not achieved by pouring alcohol over needles and jewellery, or burning these items over a fire or exposed flame. Microorganisms live in the fine fissures and cracks in needles and jewellery and only the high temperature and pressure of a steam Autoclave can render these and many other bacteria harmless.

The above reasons alone should be enough to sway anyone from thinking they can do it themselves. Professional body piercers have years for hands on training and education to enable them to make any piercing "look simple", when in fact they are considering dozens of things when they lay out a piercing and actually do it. So consider your lack of knowledge, training and skills before you attempt to do any self piercing, once you pierce it, it's damaged tissue. This makes it even more difficult for a professional piercer to leave you with a great looking piercing when the area we have to work with is damaged by self inflicted attempts.

Body piercing is not a hobby, it is a serious procedure that can if done and treated incorrectly cause serious injury and infection requiring medical attention. Pierce it your self kits are irresponsible and dangerous. Please seek the advice and assistance of a trained professional body piercer for all your body piercing requests. What you need to pierce your own belly button is a phone book and some common sense, book an appointment with a professional body piercer.

Grab the back of the labret stud with your fingers, unscrew the ball (right to tighten left to loosen) with the other hand. No video required. If you still cant get it see your piercing for assistance.

Answer 4

A monroe piercing is when you get your upper lip pierced in the same spot where Marilyn Monroe had her beauty mark. Which is YOUR left side.(so its on the right side if I'm looking at you) Some people refer to the right side as a monroe as well but others also call it the madonna. For the same reason. Madonna had a beauty mark on her right upper lip.

Answer 5

Put a bigger size in it. It's usually pierced with a 16, so try sliding a 14 into it and slowly go up to a 12. Depending on how much you want to stretch it.

Answer 6

Your first few changes should involve seeing your piercer, he/she will change the jewellery for you and you can see how it's done so you don't damage the piercing.
