Eyebrow Rings Though the teen years and the college years are usually times when people experiment with different things, and aren’t afraid to try new things, there are times when you just have to say no. My roommate was interested in eyebrow rings, and thought she might like to have one. I thought it was a cool idea, though not for me, but she had no idea where to get it done. She asked me to numb her eyebrow with ice and stick a pin through for her. I thought I could do it, but in the end I didn’t. The thought of putting something through her skin so she could wear eyebrow rings was too much for me. Perhaps that is when I discovered that I couldn’t hurt another person, even if they asked me to. I could never be a tattoo artist, nor could I ever pierce ears, or other body parts, even with the assistance of a gun. I told her she would have to find someone else to assist her with her eyebrow rings, and thankfully, she understood. I got really close, and even had the skin numbed, but when it came down to it, I just simply could not push the pin through her skin. She was sure that eyebrow rings would be the next big thing, but honestly, I see very few people with them. However, they do look very cool on the right person, even though there are few who wear them. The nose ring was popular for a while, and that was what she opted for instead. Those are nearly gone now, though you also see some with those as well. Usually, the ones with the nose rings also seem to be the ones with the eyebrow rings. If you are looking for eyebrow rings, spend some money to get one that will be okay with your system. Cheap jewelry will get infected. Stainless steel is usually a great idea. It might not be as pretty as some other types of eyebrow rings you might find, but it is by far one of the safest ways to go. The size you decide to get will be up to you, but make sure you get something that does not overwhelm your face. Instead, you want something to compliment your features. Just like earrings, they should be an accessory and not an eye sore or something you regret. Summary Eyebrow rings are not as popular as when they first came out. People have allergies to all kinds of metals, and the most common type for people to wear is stanless steel. Rings made from steel are not as attractive as other metals, so many people have given up the idea.
