[Rachel O'C]

just wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to hide a lip ring. i just got it done and never even thought about school (strict rules on piercings). i've got 5 days before i go back so answer would be greatly appreciated.

Wear a balaclava - its the only way.

Have you looked at getting a spacer fitted
These can be clear so you might get away with it - cover it with a little foundation ....
Most helpful comment from Ethel again !!

If you go into any good piercing shop you should be able to buy a retainer stud for it. They are clear plastic studs that are not easily visible I also have my lip pierced and is the only way that I can work in my job and keep the piercing good luck in finding one x x

[Ethel]

Well, really. Isn't this the sort of thing you think about before you start punching holes in your face?

Freedom of choice in this country for Rachel to pierce her lip
Get over your self and onto some one elses moral dilema

[Ethel]

It is her choice. It's her school's rules she's worrying about.

Then give her a break and post sensible comments or not at all because they are not helpful nor particualy witty

If you just got it done, it isn't advisable to change the ring/stud so soon. You run a great risk of infections, especially if you keep swapping one for the other. You should always wait for your piercing to have completely healed before you change it (1 to 3 months for a lip). Ask your piercer.

Hope this helps x x

I'm not trying to be witty.

I can't see how she can hide a hole in her face that isn't supposed to be there.

She knew the rules, it was her decision - let her take the consequences

thanks a mil to tazmac, pinkbunny and max for your helpful answers. i will go back to the piercing studio tomorrow and ask them their advice etc.

and as for ethel, i was just looking for some relevant info and help, not silly comments like yours!i did it on the spur of the moment without thought. yes it was stupid but im sure you've done something without thinking once before so cut me a bit of slack!!
