De-piercing?

[judecorp]

I'm thinking about taking out my facial piercings (vertical labret, tongue, eyebrow). I have had them for a really long time. Really long. I've had my tongue pierced for over 12 years now. I've had an eyebrow ring on and off for 10 years. I got the labret in 2002. Long time. Long time.

Thoughts?

Another one chiming in...

I took my nose pierce out two years ago (for a surgery) and haven't really missed it. I know lots of people say they don't affect nose blowing, but for me, button-nosed as I am, it got in the way.

I'm a little nostalgic when I see it in pictures, but that's all.

If it's time for you, it's time. We'll all still think you're cool!

I'm not a facial piercing person myself, but on many people they look great. If you're feeling uncomfortable, go for it. I suppose there is always an option to re-pierce if you change your mind?
