Oral piercings are the piercings that are in or around the mouth. This includes: tongue piercings, lip piercings, and cheek piercings. These piercings can also be considered as facial piercings, but the healing and maintenance of oral piercings are considerably different then facial piercings.

Here is a list of the most common oral piercings:

The Midline tongue piercing: This goes straight through the tissue of the tongue vertically. It is the “traditional” tongue piercing. This piercing is most commonly done with a straight barbell.

Lower Frenulum: This is also known as the tongue webbing. This piercing is traditionally done with a curved or straight barbell through the webbing underneath the tongue.

Upper Frenulum: This is known as the upper tongue webbing or a “smiley”. It consists of one or more piercings that go through the upper frenulum that is right below the upper lip. This is the tissue that connects the gum to the lip. It is traditionally done with a curved barbell or circular barbell.

Two Vertical Tongue Piercings: This is also known as “Venom Bites” this is when two straight barbells are pierced vertically through the tongue. These piercings sit symmetric to one another in a horizontal positioning.

Horizontal Tongue Piercing: This is also known as the “Snake Eye” piercing. This is when a curved barbell is pierced through the tip of the tongue horizontally.

The DIY or the “Do it Yourself” phrase is becoming a household phenomenon, it’s easier and cheaper to do it yourself, right? Wrong, not when it comes to piercings! You probably won’t find a do it yourself guide to take out your appendix and you’re not going to find a quality guide to pierce yourself. A professional piercer has many more advantages and knowledge when it comes to piercings, they have: education, equipment, and experience. Why is it important to know about your body? Piercers have a unique education on the body, they are aware of the vessels, nerves, and tissues that compose the body. Understanding where to place a piercing can be vital in its longevity and success.

Earlobes

Whether you choose to get one or both sides done, the earlobe is always a safe bet for guys. Your jewelry choice can change up just how the piercing will look on you, but rest assured, an ear piercing is the way to go if you have any doubts at all. Also one of the least painful locations, the earlobe can be a great way to test how well you can handle getting pierced before taking off into more painful locations.

In previous generations piercings and tattoos were taboo, they were not accepted in the work place and society saw those with piercings as “rebellious”. With more people getting tattoo’s and piercings, companies and employees are starting to rethink their policies on piercings. Each workplace has its own rules and viewpoints regarding piercings and tattoos, some industries are more open than others. It is always good practice to understand the workplace’s standard policies on piercings. More and more people and workforces have begun to look past the piercings and focus on personality and the ability to do the job. These five piercings are perfect because they are small and dainty (and some can be hidden).

Once you have one piercing it is most likely not your last! Most people are aware of the saying that someone with a few piercings or tattoo’s makes them want more, they’re addicting. “After conquering the anxiety to successfully receiving and healing that first body piercing, it becomes more exciting to choose the next one, the more exposure we have to a particular chosen event or stimuli, the less frightening or outrageous it seems because we slowly become desensitized” This was said by Stephanie Hutter Thomas, a professional body piercer and PhD student, studying the psychology of body art. There isn’t a sufficient study that people are psychologically dependent on body piercings, but people are drawn to the journey, the process, and the unique creativity that each piercing brings.

Piercings have been around for centuries and the practice go back to the oldest human mummy. Piercings have become common in our society and culture, they are a form of self-expression and art. Around 5,000 years ago a mummified person was discovered with pierced ears. Scientist measured his ears to be stretched to about 7-11 mm in diameter. Then, around 2,000 years later King Tut’s body displayed evidence of wearing earrings. This has become a trait throughout history and a practice that was performed throughout time and cultures. Piercings were done for both decorative purposes and cultural purposes. These are the six most timeless piercings, the piercings that will always be classic.

Pierced Ear Lobes

These can be pierced with a straight “stud” or barbell or a circular barbell (with a captive bead).
