How to Get a Labret Piercing

A labret piercing is generally a single piercing below the center of the lower lip, but it can also be done singly or in pairs to either side of the center. A variation of the labret is a vertical labret piercing, in which the jewelry is visible both under the lower lip and on top of it. Browsing through images on websites like BMEzine can give you a good idea of the placement of jewelry for your labret piercing. The labret is a common and easily healed piercing, so any piercing studio you feel good about is a fine place to get it done. 3 Prepare for your labret piercing by thoroughly brushing and flossing your teeth and using a mouthwash. Once you're at the piercing studio, you may be given mouthwash to rinse with before the piercing. A labret piercing leaves a permanent and visible scar, so be sure you want the piercing and can live with the scar if you decide to stop wearing your labret piercing.
