Piercing- Weird and Taboo Vs Bold and Fashionable

We are talking about face piercing which not only gives a different look but also a self-confidence to fight against the deformities of our society. Apart from this some of us never get pierced not even ear or nose piercing because they fear pain. Cutting our own body parts is not an easy thing for all of us.

The fear of pain tends me to think about the alternative for this. I was maybe 5-6yrs old girl when I got my nose and ears pierced. Being an Indian I always dreamed of wearing fancy earrings and nose pins, but after piercing I fear to be pierced again because of unbearable pain and even after that taking care of that always pissed me off.

Ear Piercing and nose piercing is the most common piercing that can be seen in different countries but apart from these two, there are many different types of piercing that people do.

Anti-Tragus piercing-

As its name defines this is the piercing on the opposite side of the tragus or we can say this is the spot which we can call upper lobe piercing.  Ok, the lobe is the skinny part of the ear and ant in this piercing we pierce cartilage on the sides of the ear.

Your Body is an Empty Canvas. so, Decorate

This is all about face piercing and now it’s time to think about the alternatives for these piercing. Let’s make it clear first, there is a very simple yet effective idea for having these piercings without bearing any pain.

You can use any artificial ring also known as toy piercings. These are artificial rings that are used by mostly actors. These rings need not have pierced really it just has to pinch a little and it will be set.

Another option is more interesting and easy too. You can use skin glue or adhesives to stick any of the stone or art you love to have on your face. This works awesome with false eyelashes glue.  Trying to do any kind of Artwork on your face just use a little of it to paste stones.

This is really a good alternative to piercing. But just keep in mind it only gives you artificial pierced look and can be fixed only for 3-4 hrs. Please don’t try to do inner mouth artificial piercing as the glue is not safe for eating. So keep these points in mind and never do mistakes. Be Bold, Be Safe, Be Beautiful.

If You want, you can try these artificial piercing ideas- Nostrils, Ear piercings, Madonna, Medusa and septum using skin glue/ adhesives.
