  • how long does the swelling last I just got my done on tuesday

  • Does the flat disk rub against your gums ALOT or never? and do you sometimes forget that you have the piercing? cus I don't want to be constantly feeling it "klink" against my gums (and or teeth). and what does it look like when you take OUT the jewelry? PLEASE answer back because I've wanted a monroe for a long time(:

  • @b010gna hey i have a monroe peircing too, and no the disk does not rub against your gums, and you can get smaller post lengths, i always forget that its there! sometime people ask if it hurt and i forget what they are talking about lol

  • ok i just bought me a new stud for my monroe but its too long.how do i cut it??

  • Can You Do A Video On How To Take It Out Please? :)

  • Did u have braces b4 u got the piercing? or after

  • WOW 110!!!!!!! shit i only would have to pay 25 for piercing and jewlery.....and tip of course but honestly where do u live they ripped u off

  • I got mine done last month but my lip swelled up too big and engulfed the stud (because they used an 18g that was way short). I am getting redone at 12pm today and am going to a different shop (one that knows what they're doing). This was a very informative video and it looks great on you! :)

  • @RidebikesNJ I just got my Monroe done and my swoll up fot a week and now its just red. but there is no way you can hid it...sorry

  • that is a hugge bottle of mouth wash! haha.

    it looks super cute on you!

  • can you use 18 g in the whole? and how big is the whole when you take it out? i want it but i dont im worried about the hole size >_<

  • $110.? for just a piercinq,, yuh could have qotten it for ALOT less..

  • @awgaskarth I just used normal toothpaste, and it doesn't really hurt at all...just don't use listerine, because that has alcohol in it and can hinder healing.

  • lip infections are very rare because your mouth has a natural defense to fight off bacteria

  • Whoa!? Sixty!? Wow, the place here does it for $20, jewelry included, and they're really professional, too. I think it looks so pretty on you, though! Great choice. :)

  • @pseudoserenity aw :) thank you!

  • Does it hurt?

  • @InfinityandToBeyond Not whatsoever.

  • why is your monroe stud 3 pieces? i never heard of that..

  • @cyberxkandixkid That's just the way the monroe post and stud that I bought came. :)

  • ITS NOT HARD TO DO YOUR MAKE-UP..I HAVE TO HAVE MY MAKE UP ON A DAILY AND IT HASNT AFFECTED ME IN ANY WAY!!

  • Ok, so if my dad EVER says yes, i Am going to get my monroe peirced, i am planning to do ALOT this summer, how long do yu think it will be for it to look like yours?

  • Okay so, I really wanna get mine done but Im scared of it getting infected and Im also scared of the pain cuz I AM scared of needles.

    Any advice?

    Oh and hows your piercing doing right now, by the way.

  • @YolandaLovesJonas If you're scared of needles it may be a little more dramatic because your body will tense up and cause more pain. Just relax! It goes so fast, it shouldn't hurt.

    and right now, my piercing is just as good as it was in this video.

    Still never been infected! :D

  • @xcatherinesbombx I got it done last week && it acually only hurt a tiny bit when the needle went through =] You rteally helped. Thanks

  • I wanna get my monroe, [: but i was wondering how hard is it too apply make up after getting it done like for my foundation. ? Thanks [:

  • @EllenKelly69 It isn't hard to apply! I just wipe the foundation off the ball and around the area of the post with the cleaning spray mentioned in this video.

  • @xcatherinesbombx Okay thanks you [:

  • When I got mine pierced, it honestly didnt hurt at all. But it did swell like a bitch for about two weeks. The ball was literally half way in my face. Lol.

  • I got mine pierced two weeks ago.

    I have Biotene.

    The problem I have is the back gets stuck in my lip.

    Did you have that problem?

  • @amberdenise44 Thats going to happen. Mine had an imprint of the circular back inside my lip. Just keep twisting it every now and then so it doesnt heal into your lip. Hope this helps:)

  • @amberdenise44 I did! :) It eventually like formed a crater, adn the crater dried up and peeled off, though..

  • Damn you got ripped off girl!!

  • im 14 and for my graduation present my parents are letting me peirce my monroe this is the first facial peircing but i have 7 ear peircings the question i have is did it hurt was it worth peircing and i have braces so does it affect me

  • dammnn you got ripped off X)

  • how much did it hurt cause i really want to get mine done

  • man u got screwed over on the price lol

  • oh wow its only $45 for everything including jewelry when i have mine done today! plus i bought sea salt and mouth wash

  • $60?! wow!

    And no jewelry include?!

    That's so weird because here in England it only costs about £15 for both!

  • @thequeenofnerds: yeah, alaska is very expensive...probably because of high shipping costs.

  • @TheQueenOfNerds I only paid $50 for mine and it included both the long bar and the shot bar. Hmmm how weird...

  • Ah, thank you so much for this video! I'm going to get it done soon and I'm also OCD haha, so I want to be very careful with it.

    I have a question, if they pierce me with a 14 or 16, could I get a TINY jewel later on? I have a friend who got an 18 which would be preferable but I want it to heal right as well so, thank you if you're able to answer!

  • @ruthi2baby: I got mine pierced at a 14, and it is now a 16. I wouldn't recommend going lower than a 16, because the bigger the gauge, the sturdier. You can talk to a professional piercer and see what they think, but overall a 16 isn't really that big. :)

  • Oh, thank you! Well I guess I will go for that then...how exactly do you make it a 16 after? That confuses me lol. Sorry if I'm annoying, I'm just really learning as much as I can about the piercing before I get it done. :)

  • @ruthi3baby: You're not annoying, I totally understand. I researched monroe piercings for YEARS before I got mine done. You pierce it at a 14, and then after like 6 weeks you just change the post to a 16 gauge and it will shrink down. :)

  • Oh awesome, thank you so much :) I can't wait to get it done :D

  • your gorgeous! and i love the peircing! i have a question...if you take it out like after say like a year or two? will it close? or stay like a hoe there?

  • @princesskitty1414: Thank you :) and it depends on the person. Some people can have piercings and can take them out after YEARS and their hole will close, other people can have them for 6 months and the hole is there for life. If you aren't ready for a hole in your face for the rest of your life, I suggest not getting it. A piercing is a commitment, and there is not always a guarantee you can get back to how you were before.

  • your soooo pretty! and it looks perfect on you :)

  • @jhudzbabygirl: Thank you :) you're very sweet.

  • can you buy smaller size balls to scew on to the 16 gage posts? thx.

  • @ibnerdsunite: yes! you can get different millimeter balls. :)

  • thanks this was so helpful, i'm trying to convince my mom to let me get this done plus, i'm allergic to metal also so she's nervous

  • hi Catherine! I just got my menroe about 2 days ago and its red! It doesnt hurt or anything but i was wondering if this is normal and how long does it last?

  • It will be red for awhile and usually it drains for about three weeks after you get it pierced. It's completely normal for it to be red. If it starts to burn, or itch and feels infected, go back to the place you got it pierced, or go to the doctor to get on anti-biotics. :)

  • my monroe pirceing was £25 ;)

  • 110?!! Thats Expensive.

    The Piercing Its Self For Me Was 35,

    iDont Kno How Much The Jelwery was.But Dangg

  • i got mine done today it didnt hurt :}

  • ok so i am going to do my friends monroe today and im somewhat professional, i have peirced my friends snake bites, all of my bellybotton piercings {theres 3}, my lip piercing and so on... so i dont have any of the professional cleaners so what is just as good or works good?

  • sea salt and water is good too, it's a cheaper alternative to h20 ocean!

  • Hey Catherine! I have a few questions, I hope you don't mind. I'm hoping to get my Monroe/Madonna this weekend. I was just wondering, overall, is it necessary to buy H20 Ocean products or can I just use Oral B mouthwash, sea salts and Dial soap? Also, do you have any tips on what to eat and/or drink the day of the piercing and the days after until swelling and etc is finished? I can't have ice cream since I'm lactose intolerant : /

    <3

    BTW Your Monroe is adorable.

  • You can use any type of sea salt wash, and any mouthwash that does not contain alcohol. Biotene is a good one. I suggest not eating spicy foods for awhile.

  • damn. 60? plus another 35?

    my nose and monroe all together was 75.

  • everything is super expensive in alaska :(

  • You have to leave it in 6 weeks? Damn now i have to wait until Spring break.. oh god thats ages away!

  • personaaalllly, i leave mine in ALL the time.  Everyone's body is different and you just have to know how long you can leave the piercing out without it closing. I recommend leaving it in at LEAST 6 weeks.

  • so I went to wal-mart and got a monroe stud it says its surgical steel and it's a lot shorter than what I'm guessing they pirece with. SO my question is . Do you have to have the mental ball stud monroe ring thing? Sorrry am not sure what it's called. Also, I"m supper allergic to nickle so I'm scared it will get infected, and I'm kinda weary b/c it is in my mouth. Does it scrach your gums at all? Thanks

  • Most people who are allergic to metal, are really only allergic to nickel. Most metals have a percentage of nickel added to them as a filler, but surgical steel should not have it. I've never personally purchased monroe jewelry from walmart, but if you are allergic to metal, I would suggest buying a ball from a piercer, at least for the duration of the healing. It doesn't scratch my gums at all, because on the back of the post is a flat plate. If you have any more questions let me know. :D

  • one more QUESTION, like out of 1-10, did it hurt to get it? like 4 real

  • For me, it was maybe a 2, but that is probably because I had crazy adrenaline going. Everyone's pain tolerance is different. I've had people tell me that they almost passed out, but I didn't hardly feel it.

  • What It Helps Ta Take Medcine Before Yu Gooo.? And Did Yurs Bleed? I See Some Ppl Here On Youtube And Thrs Bleed I Be Lyk Danq Lol

  • I really want to get a monroe, but I dont think my mom is too keen on the idea. how did you get your mom to agree?

  • Every mom is different, I had to get A's on finals.

  • okay so, I want one really bad. And i'm really scared of infection. i just saw a video death 2 monroe, and I got rlly scared by that. Im not rlly worried about the pain but, how many times do you clean and take care of the monroe for no infection? and if it starts hurting can you take it out clean it, and put it back in...? :| im just rlly nervous bout infection,

  • When I first got my monroe done I cleaned it around three times a day, and rinsed my mouth whenever I ate. Honestly, it depends on the person, everyone is different and some people are more prone to infections and some aren't. If you do get an infection though, you can go to the doctor and get anti-biotics and that should take care of the infection. Just whatever you do, DO NOT TAKE OUT THE PIERCING. It will trap the infection inside.

  • I payed 35 for mine with the jewelry. I didn't pay loads of money for special mouthwashes or any of that. I just got Listerine and I used Dial soap to clean around it. This is what the piercer told me to do, and I didn't have any problems at all. Also, I found what works GREAT for the dryness/redness around the piercing is saline solution. All in all, I am VERY satisfied with my piercing & I didn't have to spend lots of money at all. (:

  • is there current foods you can't eat? .. like salty or spicy foods?

    :\

  • Nope. I eat whatever I want...and it doesn't give me any problems.

  • dang that charged you alot

  • why yes, yes they did,

  • Any oral piercing that touches your teeth or gums can damage your teeth or gums. A goog piercer will place your piercing where it is least likely to damage your oral health, but still look good.

    Talk to your dentist about whether or not they think it would be good for you.

    If you do get it done, don't click it on your teeth too much, sometimes I find myself biting on the post and that can chip and damage your teeth.

  • It can get caught only if I purposely make it that way, other than that, it stays away from my braces.

    You can drink, but while it's healing if you drink or smoke it will slow down the healing time, but it definitely doesnt hurt it.

  • You paid way to much for your piercing.. I paid 25 bucks thats it by the way your ball on the end of yours is way to big, get a little gem

  • I like the ball.

  • did it hurt when you ate?

  • No, only spicy foods..and you're not supposed to drink or eat too much dairy because of the natural bacterias in it.

  • do u mind doing a video on how to take care of it after just getting it done, pleasE? and how to take care of it in the long run? if u dont mind =) thanks

  • Currently, I am on vacation..I would be happy to do a video when I get home though, which is on July 4th..so If you still want it then, I will happily do it :D

  • i just got mine today =D so do u get used to it, like can u move it around ur mouth without hurting?

  • I don't even feel mine anymore. It's just there, and unless I am pushing it through my lip or playing with it you don't feel it whatsoever. The pain is really temporary, but you may notice that it starts to get crusts around the post...this is completely normal, so don't freak out, and it is temporary as well, just be sure to clean it well, and take care of it.

  • omg i got mine done yesterday it was only 25 in milwaukee wi..

  • nooope! not unless I intentionally hook it onto them hahaha.

    :)

  • my favorite part is .

    its your face. and its your hole in you face.

    lol

    :D

  • :) hahah! well it's true! you gotta like it, or you're stuck with having to let it heal, or a gnarly hole you hate.

  • that is so expensive!

    my bellybutton cost $60 with some H20 Saline STuff :/

    your monroe looks great though...I'm scared to get any like oral piercing lol

  • thank you! I know I paid quite a bit, oral piercings aren't that bad, but my dentist says TONGUE piercings are the WORST on your teeth.

  • you can have the diamond one if your piercing shop has it available, when I went the shop that I went to was out of the diamonds, so I just got a regular ball.

  • does it irratate your mouth at all

    by the way it look really cute ilove it

  • It doesn't irritate my gums or mouth, when you first get it it does, and it is normal for the inside of your lip to be irritated and for it to rub on your gums, it takes a little bit to get used to it but now I can't even feel it at all.

    Thanks! :D

  • oh k thanks cause i wanna get it done but im 13 and have braces so i wasnt sure if it would irratate but thanks soo much

  • If you do get it done, make sure it's placed in the right spot. It shouldn't hook on your braces.

  • yeah like you'd probably pay 15-20 quid over here for the lot, what a rip off

  • Oh, well, I wanted it done. hahah. I don't mind.

  • looks great!

  • thanks!

  • Alaska sucks.

    I'm pretty sure that piercers make about the same as doctors here.

    :)

  • you paid waaayyy too much for that. FYI xD

  • That's how we do.

    in alaska.

  • haha my parents don't listen..But I had to get an tooth implant and veneers and stuff so if there was like a 1% chance it could affect it they said they'd kill me, can't blame them I guess since they spent thousands! it looks awesome on you though never take it out :-) and do another tutorial soon!

  • I am going to do a tutorial tomorrow, :) I don't plan to take it out, especially since I had to pay for it! hahaha.

    I had to do SO much research before my mom agreed.

    she still hates it, but she's supportive.

  • looks great on you :-) I've had alot of dental work done so my family wouldn't let me get any sort of piercing near the mouth :-( So I went with my eyebrow piercings lol I still want this soo bad though but my boyfriend hates it..blah people suck.

  • Thanks. Monroe piercings don't actually usually affect your teeth, because they don't click your teeth unless you bite on them..so even my orthodontist wasn't too mad about it.

    I think monroes are freaking cool! haha.

  • ohhh btw im allergic to metal too its annoying i break out in little bumps and it itches and ughhh btw this was a great video

  • yeah, I got my ears pierced when I was 11 for my birthday and my whole face swelled up and I got bleeding hives and I had to take them out..

    Soon after I had an allergic reaction in the dentist chair..

    I hate allergies!

    they're hardcore :)

  • i got mine done professionally for 20 bucks that included the jewelry. I also recommend the h20 ocean products. i had no infection with mine or swelling.

  • I used to have my lip pierced but I took it out last year. Now I want to get it done again lol. The first few weeks of healing sucks though...so much maintenance!

  • Yeah! You should do it again though :) That'd be cool!

  • hey where did do you buy your jewelry at? online or at the shop where you got it pierced? just wondering. thanks.

  • I got it in a local shoppe, but there are good places online I'm sure, but I haven't ever ordered from anyone..

  • I'm so glad you went to a proffesional.  I can't stand when my friends pierce themselves. I could never do that. I'm a major wimp :)

  • Me neither! All my friends do their own, except their tongues.

    And, my mom insisted that I go to a professional.

  • i want to get my tongue pierced but ahhh =/

    haha

    great video

  • I heard that tongue piercing hurts like BAD.

    They're coool though, but I wouldn't get one because my orthodontist would murder me because he said they are the worst for your teeth, because after time your teeth just start to corrode away.

  • the tongue hurt the worse for me ..i dont think i would do it agian..lol. but i've had friends say it didnt even phase them i guess everyine is different..lol

  • Yeah, a couple of my friends have had their tongues too and some say it doesn't hurt and others say that it's the worst pain they've ever felt..

    everyone has a different level of pain tolerance.

  • awesoem vid..but whoa you paid that much for one peircing?! ...where i came from and ec=ven here in wisconsin where i live now it's like $40 or $50 and the jewelry is free...i did all my own peircings except for my tongue..i think my lip closed up though...lol. i want it back ..but this was a very informative vid..i never heard of that peircing spray i've got to look for it..:0

    xoxoxoxoxoxo

    joanie

  • Alaska is expensive! haha, I'm sure down in the states it's a lot cheaper, but it's my only piercing, so I don't mind.

    :)

    Thanks for watching and commenting! and I really like the H2OSpray.

  • Did you have this done at the hole look or body piercing unlimited or did you go somewhere else ? I'm trying to decide where I'd like to go for some work. Did you like the place ?

  • I got mine done at Body Piercing Unlimited...I MUCH prefer The Hole Look though :) Everyone there is friendly and it's a great environment.

    What are you thinking of getting done?

  • mine too.

    I wash my hands a TON.

    But, at least i'm clean!
