Eyebrow piercing? - June 28th 2011, 11:58 PM

Hello

I want to get an eyebrow piercing, but I'm allergic to the metals in most body jewelery. Even the hypo-allergenic ones!

Any suggestions on what I should do?


If you ever need to talk, send me a PM <3

Do you know what metals you are allergic to? For first piercings, they will usually use surgical stainless steel or titanium, although you might have a choice of gold jewelry. Those are usually safe for fresh piercings. Often it's nickel that is problematic, so if this is true in your case, you should make sure that the jewelry you're getting is actual surgical steel and doesn't contain nickel.

I know with me, when I got my ears pierced I had problems with the jewlery in my ears but when I got my eye brow done the metal never gave me any problems. Like when you get it done they will use a starter jewlery which is made of sudrical metal or something. So like most people won't react to it. But like if your allergie is not life threatening really the only way your gonna find out if your body doesn't like something is by doing it. So maybe get it done and if it doesn't work out just take it out and it should heal back to normal. Worst case is that you might get some minor scaring.

Good luck.
