They make the face tattoos look better?

On plenty of people lip and nose rings are quite sexy. I'll admit it's rare to see a woman look great with eyebrows peirced but far from impossible.
I don't understand it nor do I care for it. I have seen some very small ones that did not look bad, but I have never seen any that made me go WOW she is hot. But it is their face, maybe they won't regret it or the tattoos when they are 60.

Aesthetic, artistic expression, complete control over a physical form, the hot, beautiful pain of the needle's contrast with the cold, smooth steel that caresses warm, supple flesh. The sharp, intense sensation every time you touch, the regenerative, burning, warmth of live as your body heals itself like fucking wolverine. The immortal knowledge that piercings were one of the very first forms of art, found in every single human society, connecting yourself to the planet, to your species, to the human collective unconscious, something greater than yourself. Something beautiful and wise, something immortal and ancient and timeless. Something, as far as we know, unique to humanity, something that connects while being unique. Beauty in it's truest form requires pain in order to appreciate pleasure.
God I could go on forever. It feels so fucking good. It's addictive. Surface piercings will grow up to, so you can do it over and over and fucking shit it's so good.

From the pov of a body piercer.....
We LOVE them!
I mean, holy shit, we make a fuckton of profit from each and every piercing!
My personal profit-margin runs to 500%..... and that's after calculating all costs (overheads, materials, wages, premises rent, jewellery, everything.)
Long live the piercing craze

Labret and nose piercings can be really nice/sexy. Tongue piercings annoy me because those with them too often unconsciously play with them - biting the piercing, knocking it against the inside of their teeth, etc. - when their nervous or bored. Piercings are like clothes or hairstyles or anything else fashiony - some people make them work, others don't. But my tastes are not their tastes, so as long as they're happy and having fun I'm happy for them, even when I think their design/fashion choices are sucky.

Only if you're too stupid to go back and get a downsized bar after the swelling goes down.
Or if your piercer places it too far forward.
A correctly placed and sized piercing should not be able to touch your teeth unless you purposefully stick your tongue out and bite it.
Labrets do far more damage as they always rub the gum.

Or roll your tongue under to bite it, which is what I did. Repeatedly. Until I just had to take it out because I can't be trusted with my own fucking mouth. I did that 'stick your tounge out and roll the ball around your front teeth too, mostly under the mistaken impression that it was cute. I never chipped one, tho. So.... good for me.
I'm gonna guess that mine wasn't properly placed, because I could fold my tongue and stick it between my side teeth or stick out my tongue and roll it between my front teeth.
The tongue growing up process pissed me off tho because that sonofabitch heals FAST. Like 1 day fast. You don't get that super nice healing feeling I was talking about earlier when you take the bar out. That might just be me, but it heals SO MUCH faster than any other part of the body.

I think they depend on the person and their facial structure on whether they will look good. I personally think its a persons choice but they need to consider life around that. I have had plenty people come to my shop who want to get them when they haven't got any other piercings who I turn away because they haven't thought about it first.

It's fashion trend. In the matter of fashion go with the flow. On matters of principle stand like a rock.
Most girls these days have tats. Small and artsy but they have one. I'm not a huge fan of most facial piercings. Some look nice. Some look hot and sexy. Most are bit too much. Depends though. An obvious punker/goth type can pull it off better than other styles. Hell they're probably mandatory. Step up from 70's punker piercings with safety pins.
Piercings close up if not used later in life. Facial tattoos have always been the hardest of hardcore. Now this stretched earlobe thing is weird! Guys with size 10 rings in their lobes. First time I ever saw that was in a National Geographic from the 60's on African tribal women.
Our primitive ancestors probably had lots of body ornamentation. Tats are ancient.
How long have women pierced their ears?
