job, are competing in a sporting event or are visiting sensitive relatives. Metal is forbidden in some areas, e.g. for an MRI or X-ray. Simply removing the piercings will cause them to close. However, various options exist for these situations:
1. The most common piercing to hide is to the tongue. Clear acrylic tongue retainers are available in a variety of sizes.
2. The same can be done with lip piercings, but the retainers are shorter.
3. If you only need a short period of concealment, e.g. a job interview, you can take the ball off a labret stud.
4. Retainers can also be used with eyebrow piercings, but will be visible if the piercing is shallow or there is little hair. A barbell can be used with its balls removed, to keep the piercing from closing.
5. The retainers used to hide navel piercings are differently-shaped, like a Golf tee with a curved stem. These will be more expensive because they aren't a mass-market product and not every company makes them.
6. After ears, nostril piercings are the next most inoffensive, but situations can still arise where they must be hidden. Employ a titanium or niobium nostril screw, colored to match the skin. Or there's the Microbezel nostril screw, weighing 20g with a 1mm jeweled top, which is hard to detect. Acrylic retainers are usually not thin enough and will remain visible.
Piercing is a popular form of body modification. However, there will be times when you want to keep your job, play a sport, have a baby (female personnel only), get an X-ray or not give Grandma a heart attack, and that's when the above steps can help you tremendously.
