Love bites - September 1st 2010, 09:38 PM

Okay so this might be a daft question but I'm going to go ahead and ask anyway

So basically, you know love bites? Well do they show up like straight away? Because basically as far as I know they are like bruises but bruises take a while to show themselves. So I was just wondering if I need to check myself before I wear my hair up again tomorrow

You should definately check yourself before you put your hair up. Love bites do take a while to show up depending on how hard you got bitten. If you have a bruise, please do not put your hair up. I would keep it down until it goes away


You can always PM or VM me. I'm always here if anyone needs a friend

I miss you babibear. You were my everything and you always will be

No one believes me about anything. That goes to show I'm not worth it anymore

Hickeys usually have certain signs you can look for right away to tell if its going to mark right away. If it is just a red area, kind of like a light sunburn might look, then it is fine and will go away within in a couple hours roughly, depending. If it is a really dark red or purple-ish hue (as in there is lots of blood flow to that spot, not bruising necessarily), if there is darker spotting within the red area, a darker area within the light red part, or just plain up bruising (it can happen), you will probably have a hickey. Regardless, wear your hair down for a few hours before checking again, just in case.

I would definitely leave the hair down and throw some makeup on the spot, just in case.

Short answer, yes.

But it generally depends on how hard. I'd probably advise you wear your hair down if you're easily embarrassed =P

The ones I give my boyfriend always show right away. They can be quite nasty. I think I am secretly a vampire!

They tend to show right away. I woke up with one once.. apparently I asked him to do it to me whilst I was drunk. I am very very suspicious of whether or not this is true

Makeup covers them!

love bites? Why would anyone want to bite you? I am guessing it happened on your neck. If so, I guess leaving your hair down is best then. Hope it gets better.

ahh I love it when a girl bites my neck, but the aftermath is funny where everyone is like "WTF happened to your neck and arms?"

In my experience they usually show up straight away, but maybe leave your hair down just in case, and have a good aul check in the mirror before leaving the house

Jen!

Being serious though, they do take a little while to show up, but no more than a day, I would think. As for hiding them, I think scarves are usually best, since your hair can move fairly easily. And no one believes the "I burnt myself with a curling iron" story .

"Love bite" is just a name. They are actually usually caused by excessively sucking/kissing one spot. And the neck is usually a fairly erogenous zone, so most people find it quite enjoyable.
