Eyebrow Ring - Yay or Nay

Mollusc · 18-02-2013 04:20PM #1

Hi everyone.

I'm debating about getting an eyebrow ring/bar. I know they are a bit out of fashion at the moment, but I think they still look cool enough.

I work in an office environment, and I know that it won't be a problem there.

I'm a 27 year old male, am I too old to have one of these now?

Could you please provide some honest advise as I have received mixed feedback from people who I have asked (my gf, my mum, my workmates).

Thanks.

No, just No

Don't get one if you look like a scumbag.

Do whatever you want.

I imagine some people might find you hard to take seriously, but if you don't mind that or think you can convince them otherwise, then reach for that rainbow.

Did you really just set up an account to ask people if you should get an eyebrow piercing

:pac::pac::pac::pac::pac:

anyways.. don't. Not a good look imo.

They look ridiculous! At a push they look cool when the owner has other facial piercings.

I used to have a lot of piercings, some "interesting" ones, but I have always thought eyebrow piercings were hideous.

If yer gonna do it, you might as well bleach your hair as well.

stiffler123 · 18-02-2013 04:23PM

If you want one, then go get one. Simple.

Absolutely not

they're fine, they can look great so go for it. to hell with the nay-sayers

Mollusc · 18-02-2013 04:24PM

Wow, some quick responses.
I do like the 'surfy' look, and have my hair bleached already.

I wouldn't consider other piercings on my face though.

Run_to_da_hills · 18-02-2013 04:24PM

Stupid,

If you ever get tired of it and want it removed, you are left with a visible scar for life.

Grahamb23 · 18-02-2013 04:25PM

Please don't . if you missed out on getting one in the early 90's so be it but just forget about it now....

Sounds like a look from back in the early 90's

i don't mind piercings.i had plenty of them years ago.but i never liked the brow ring.i think they are lovely looking on women but they make fellas look a bit rough.but hey do what you like

ArtyM · 18-02-2013 04:30PM

Get one of those nose studs OP - the ones that the wearer thinks are cool but everyone else actually thinks looks like a pimple.
Definitely get one of those.

Just to make this decision easier, I added a poll, could you please vote in that.

At the moment it's not looking favourable...

No Atari Jaguar option so...no vote....

When I was a teenager I was considering getting a lip ring. I went to some shop like Claire's Accessories and bought a fake one. I put that on at home and thought to myself "wow, that looks truly awful and ridiculous, what was I thinking?".

Give that a go, if you still like the idea of it, then go for it. People will think what they think (although you should probably pay attention to what your girlfriend says). You can take it out later if it's not working for you.

If you don't know if you want one

You don't want one

Had it done in my early college years

Pain in the hole. Can't play sports, hurts, always getting a wallop and you need a bar for a few months before you can contemplate a ring.

Also, scar gets fairly ugly after a few years.

Avoid.

Have an eyebrow (bar with spikes) and labret piercing and they make me look sexy as fcuk. Go for it op, the chicks will be all over you.

It's the standard opt out option on boards.

They were way cool in the early noughies, coincidentally when I had one.

Now however, in this day and age, they are the facial distinction of a idiot man.

18-02-2013 04:43PM

If you really wanted it, you probably wouldn't be looking for online approval for it.

I don't think they look good on anyone, but if you do want it then just do it. I hope you're not left with a scar if you change your mind.

tan11ie · 18-02-2013 04:44PM

Nay

The OP's probably pretending to never have heard of it.

Mollusc · 18-02-2013 05:00PM

I haven't heard of it.

If I knew, I would have put the option there.

This is giving me a visual of the 'general publics' reaction, so it's giving me something to think about.

Kylo Ren · 18-02-2013 05:02PM

Yay or nay?

More like gay!

heh...
