Why is the sky blue? Over the ages piercing was done by several groups for various reasons some religious and others to scare off spirits and some just for the look of it. In our culture it's done now for the fashion and a personal statement of style "The Look" Piercing is something different to every person and the reasons are just as various from a kid rebelling against the parents to and artist capturing the essence of there own personal style. Right down to Joe the biker just wanting to look a little more hard core. It is a unique means for one to express themselves now a days.

How do you treat a lip piercing?

Well if you had the piercing done you should have received detailed written aftercare instructions, if you are going to get the piercing done, you should get the aftercare instructions in writing. Be sure to ask your piercer before you get the piercing done," do I get written aftercare instructions?". If the answer is no then find another studio to get the piercing done. All piercing studios must provide the client with written aftercare instructions, this is a requirement of all body piercing studios, as required by the local health inspection departments and municipal licensing bodies. If you didn't get instructions for the aftercare of your piercing and you just got it done, go back and ask for the instructions from your piercer. They must provide the aftercare instructions, they are responsible for what they do, and part of that responsibility requires they provide you with the instructions verbally and in writing.
