    Default monroe question-to pierce or not to pierce

    So when I used to dance at the club Im at now, my look was very soft (blonde highlights in brown hair, wear pink a lot, fake tan)

    when i went away, i started feeling like for once it was okay for me to express my alternative side

    (dyed hair black, kept my fair skin pale, got a few tats ive wanted awhile, and am planning on getting a decent sized back piece by new years)

    I am debating on whether or not to get my monroe pierced. Since I have started back right after halloween i finally got the courage to get 2 tats ive wanted and have an apt for the large one

    Would throwing my monroe in the mix make me look like i was trying too hard?

    theres one girl at my club, a gorgeous girl who really pulls it off. we look nothing a like, but because i have small facial features, im worried it will overwhelm my face, especially since they start out with a 16 gauge at the smallest-if i got one, id want to get tiny diamond stud there

    right now all i have is my belly button, ears, and cartiledge.

    also, is 23 too old for a monroe?

    (im at a point in my life where i feel comfortable enough to be more alternative after growing up in a super strict household)

    I had 8 facial piercings and I took em out. I dunno where you're at but the last 2 places I have been at are not pierced friendly. You may be able to get away with a monroe. And oh my yes, 23 is over the fucking hill for a piercing.. -_- Better start em in preschool.

    Depends on your face. Some people look fantastic with it, some look horrible. Do you have full lips? If you don't, don't do it, it will look like shit.

    If you do get it done PLEASE do not have the piercer pierce your cheek. The perfect spot for a monroe is between the corner of your lip, to the bottom of your nostril. If you make a dot on each spot, draw an invisible line, the best place is in the very middle fo the line.
    THIS: Is a bad example. Her lips are thin and the piercing is way far out on her face.


    This is a great example (I couldn't get the pic to attach, just click the link), except I think the piercing doesn't fit her lips well. They honestly look best on girls with very full lips.

    Lol Tempest

    My lips arent that full. i have a wide jawline, high cheeks, but small lips and nose. When I do the red lips, black eye make up they look full but i dont want to have to worry about always wearing lipstick for it to look right

    I attached an old pic of the bottom half of my face (but im wearing lipgloss so my lips look fuller)

    My club is pretty piercing friendly-bodywise they dont care, and facial wise, a few girls have nose rings, one with a monroe, one with a labret. theres one girl i was in awe of with blue/green/red/etc hair, multiple facial piercings, and tats, and they didnt seem to mind either way. they thought it was cool when she color coordinated her hair to her outfit.

    I think piercings and tats look great. I have a pretty big tattoo on my back, a smaller one on my arm. I also have my nose and a monroe piercing.....oh..I'm also 35.

    Do it if you think you'll like it and its for YOU. Not a style or a phase.. but for you only.
    I dont like the monroe peircings.. I only noticed "crazy" girls with them, in my personal opinon.

    i got it done and hated it. I took it out about 2 months later. And Im ALL about tattoos and peircings. The peircer rarely gets it in the right spot...but when they do get it right i think there super cute. Ive known like 3 other ladies that got it done and took it out later.

    haha if youre getting a backpiece and two more tatts the monroe should be the last issue with looking too alternative.

    but

    the one thing i will say on it is it does hurt, more than any of my other piercings and its always on your face. if i waited till over 18 to get it done i prob woulda tattood a mole above my lip

    but customers love it, not like that should be the primary reason behind getting it done

    Chilli your gorgeous!

    For customers I am not too worried about it, the girls with facial piercings seem to do well.

    Its funny though, I dont think the tats are that extreme (b/c of where they are located), but the facial piercing is b/c I used to dress up in the whole chino-oxford look, so I would still look pretty clean cut

    Livingdeadgirl, I think I will wait and instead of rushing out to get it done, ask someone I see with the piercing who their piercer was, to find the right person for the job. I think the small diamond stud is really cute

    I had double monroes, snakebites, and a labret. I took em all out and my earnings have tripled... just think very carefully about everything.

    It would look good with your lips, they have a good shape. You don't have little bird lips, and for some reason when I was a piercer only girls with no lips wanted monroes and it really annoyed me.

    I think just getting a little gem would look classy, a big ball looks trashy. Also, make sure you get a shorter post once its healed so its doesn't stick out a bunch.

    Yeah I definetely dont want a ball. I want a diamond stud. Course I wonder if I will get the same line I get from custies when they see my monroe the ever so popular "is that a real diamond" (sigh, of course my carat sized diamond is real in my belly button ring...and my glitter is real gold dust!)

    If I get it it would be interesting to see if it affects my earnings.If so, I could eventually wear one of those clear retainers...

    Thanks girlygirl...As far as earnings....it didn't impact me at all. I average around a $75-$100 an hour. When I first had the piercings I also did my hair red (bright red). I love to dance to Ramstein..so I was pretty much the alternative wild rocker girl. So it worked for me.

    I work with a few facial piercings - a dermal as well as a lip ring, and I find it helps a lot of the time - some guys are really into it, or just want to ask about it, and so the conversation is started! (Of course, I have a full sleeve too, so I already have a pretty "alt" look) So as long as your club doesn't mind, it shouldn't really impact your earnings.

    Couple things to consider, though.

    - When you first get pierced, the bar will be loooong. This lets you swell, clean it properly, etc etc and is pretty darn important! However, you don't want to be changing it to a shorter one for at least 6 weeks. This means that for 6 weeks, you will have a bar sticking out of your face, which might impact your earnings. Not much, but it could, especially if you are self-concious about it. You won't have that little flat diamond on your lip for at least 6 weeks.
    - You will have to be super careful about getting makeup on it (big no no) for the first couple weeks. This means that when it is initially a little bit red, you won't be able to use cover up on it.
    - You should be pretty careful about rinsing your mouth, and not talking too much for the first couple weeks, as the constant flexing can irritate it when it's fresh.

    All in all, if you want it for you, go get it! But maybe take a week off to start with, and make sure that you are taking really good care of it....there is nothing less sexy than a big 'ol keloid, or swollen and irritated piercing right in the middle of your face! lol

    I miss my piercings. Not to brag but not many chicks can pull off two sets of piercings like me. I have such nice big juicy dick sucking lips. But too bad farmer Joe in north Dakota didn't think so.

    goddamn look at me! I miss u piercings!

    Bloody hell! Fuck you bourgoise judgemental motherfuckers! It was only in the interest of finances that I took out my piercings.
    I love my lips, especially when they are wrapped around his dick!

    Thanks everyone for the advice! I hate that I have to wait to get the diamond one in b/c the long bar will make me self conscious. Maybe I will get it done on a Sunday (since my club is closed), and not work until friday.

    I just noticed yesterday that one girl has a double labret and seems to do fine.
    A custie commented that my tats are too small! lol-but i know that tats and facial piercings are different things

    Since Ive dyed my hair jet black, I have had guys wanting me to be a little more dominant towards them, which is fun but hard for me. i feel bad slapping them when they are nice!

    Agree with the fuller lip statement, I'm african american so my lips are plump enough to have my snake bites and monroe. But there not so big that when I ware rings it looks idiotic. I also have a ceptum piercing and I have yet to notice any drop infact even guys who don't like them still come my way. I haven't heard a single thing about my tattoos, I'm still waiting for it because iv started my chest piece and my right side. The only thing I'm not feeling great about is I have a couple of skulls on both arms and where there placed makes me look more toned I feel like an amazon at my little club.
