I only had 2 piercing and those were my navel and my right nostril. I wanted more piercings but I wanted something like my tongue or my lip. I never thought about getting my eyebrow pierced. I saw many people with eyebrow piercing but I never thought I would have one. I didn't even like the piercing. But my opinion would soon change.
At A Glance Author Brandy Contact Brandy@bme.anon When Two years ago Artist Greg Studio Castle of color Location Nicholasville,Kentucky My best friend, Karen always wanted her eyebrow pierced. I can remember in the 6th grade she would draw pictures of herself with an eyebrow piercing. She always looked at the eyebrow jewelry and asked if she would look right with that piercings. Her mom told her she has to wait until she's 14 years old before she can get any piercings. After a few years we were finally 14years old. We were in high school now and everything had changed. We looked different, and we were much more mature. But one thing hadn't changed. Karen still wanted her eyebrow pierced.
She didn't get her eyebrow pierced on her birthday. She waited a few months later before she called me up. She told me her mom is finally letting her get her eyebrow pierced and she would be getting it done the following day. I told her that's great and I'm happy for her. She told me she didn't want to be alone when she got it done so I told her I would go with her. That wasn't enough she wanted me to get my eyebrow pierced with her. I said no at first but she begged me so I finally gave in.
I went to my moms room and asked her if I could get my eyebrow pierced. Being the cool mom that she is she said yes.
The next day I waited for Karen to call me all day. She finally called me at 9 pm. She told me she finally got it. She got her eyebrow pierced. I was a little pissed because I wanted to be there when it happened but I got over it. One would think I would just forget about piercing my own eyebrow but now I wanted it. My best friend had it and now I wanted it.
The next day I told my mom that Karen went on and got her eyebrow pierced but I still wanted to get mine done. She then took me to Castle of Color. That's where I had gotten my other piercing and that's where I felt most comfortable. I told Greg what I wanted done and he told me it would be 40 dollars if I got a barbell and 35 dollars if I got a hoop. I wanted a hoop but I only had 20 dollars and my mom doesn't help me pay for my piercing. Since Greg knew me he agreed to do it for 20 dollars. Since there were other people before us we had to wait for a few minutes. We looked at the photos of other peoples piercings and tattoos.
Greg came out and told me and my mom to come to the back room. My mom said she didn't want to watch so she stayed in the front room and looked at the photos. I sat down on the dentist like chair. He got out all his tools and the needle out of its package. He cleaned off my eyebrow. I felt a little nervous. I lied back and he put the clamps on my eyebrow. I closed my eyes. He told me to breath in then breath out. When I breathed out I felt the needle go through but there was no pain at all. I didn't expect any pain. I felt him put the jewelry in. He had trouble putting the ball on the hoop since I picked out the smallest one but he got it on. I looked in the mirror and it was cute. It was a tiny little hoop in my eyebrow. I tried to move it around but it was stiff, he said it would be that way. He gave me some soap and a paper with instructions on how to care for the piercing.
After he did the piercing I stayed and talked with him. I asked him what was the strangest piercing he had ever done. He said he pierced a guys neck all the way around like a necklace. I asked him if he ever did any corset type piercing. He said no. He said most people who get something like that done get it for a special occasion and its not permanent. I told him the next piercing I want to get is my vertical labret and he told me he'll do it for 30 dollars.
My mom came back and told me we had to go. I said bye to Greg and went around town to show off my new piercing.
About a year after I got my piercing I took it out. I got in a fight with a girl and before I fought her I took it out so she wouldn't rip it out. I left it out for about a week then tried to put a barbell back in it. It went in about half way. I felt kind of sad that my piercing was gone but I decide I would get it done again soon. I plan on getting it done again sometime this week. Hopefully I can get some pictures of that and my other piercings.
