That was what i was going to suggest too...

Its funny as piercings are so main stream not and why someone would object to 1 type but not another.

I think it's because sometimes they look less professional and if you've got obvious piercings it kinda says that you're unreliable and could make trouble or something. One of my teachers last year actually pulled me out into the hallway to tell me that because I don't look like the "norm" I would have to work harder than everyone else to be accepted into society.

I have known teachers though to have nose rings but they kept them small studs that aren't as obvious. Just depends I guess.

Sorry i didn't explain myself i think..

I can understand why some ppl think 'piercings + tattoos' are unprofessional but my point was that in the case i was refering to that having your eyebrow pierced was ok but the lip wasn't...

Ohh okay. :] Well you never know, there's all kinds of crazy rules floating around so in one place liprings are a no and eyebrows are alright. Strange but you'll have that sometimes.

I am quite happy, and I hope he is, too...One of these days I'm gonna catch him with his hair down and get a really good, sexy picture...His hair is pulled back in that picture because it was at my sister's wedding (we don't dress that way normally :p), but his hair is probably longer than mine...It's damned close.

I can't even BELIEVE that I kept my red (orange) hair for so long...It was the people at THIS FORUM who convinced me to dye it black...I wish I had started doing it when I was a teenager...I hate orange hair...I may ACT like a clown, but I don't wanna look like one.

OH, to jump into the tats and piercings conversation:

Seri can have all of the piercings she wants at her job, which was one of the reasons she chose to work there...It's interesting what some people consider important criteria when choosing a job...Seri has a couple of tattoos...Maybe she'll post pictures of them here (If I had any in my comp, I'D do it :p)...*nudge*

Dustin had to remove his earrings and eyebrow ring to work at the hotel, he still has his tongue piercing, tho.

Seri wanted to get her eyebrow pierced, but she said she can't because mine is pierced...Which I think is a silly deterrent...If she wants to do it, she should, no matter what anyone else does.

Oddly enough, it seems that people always take pictures of me from the side that doesn't show my eyebrow piercing...I need to get a good shot of it someday, cuz I really like it...It's a silver ring with a silver cross hanging from it...Seri snapped a picture last week while we were at White Castle's (from the wrong side as usual)...I cut this part out and blew it up, see if you can see the ring and the cross here:

In my avatar picture you can see something to the left of my left eye, but you can't tell that it's a cross...or even that it's an eyebrow ring.

@Ferret...You're starting to look more grown up...Soon there won't be any kids left here at all.

What kinda job lets you have an eye brow piercing and not a lip one?
I already had the eyebrow done when I started.They cant make me take it out but my new boss complains about it non stop.Plus my dad bitches about it all the time.

My dads thinks it looks unprofessinal and I'll never get a good job.Which is true but not because of the piercing but my horrible education.He acts like if I take it out some CEO of a fortune 500 company will stop by and make me president.
