Pic's of my friend's unique piercing...

[Tonya]

We all went out last night for my bestfriend's 25th birthday. I was able to capture some pics of her piercing. I just love it. She was always self-consious about her smile, and this gave her the confidence to smile. I like it because there aren't a whole lot of people out there with it. It's the gums above her front teeth. BTW, this the the friend that I lived with in highschool that I sometimes talk about.



This is Kim, myself, and her brother Sean. Sean was my first love way back in the olden days.

Your friend is so pretty, why couldn't she smile before? I have to say, I think her new piercing is pretty disgusting.

[DoggiesAreTheBest]

Yes, your friend is pretty. I don't understand why she was self conscious of her smile. I am not sure how I feel about the piercing. I find it kind of odd Just my opinion.

Owwww! As someone who lived through 2 years, two months and 14 days of having braces in my mouth, I cannot say I'd ever want metal in or around my guns ever again.


But she does have a lovely smile, and I'm sure her upper lip will develop a callous, so if it makes her smile more confidently, okay!

I'm guessing she has to eat very carefully ... no chomping into apples with that, huh?

(ow!)

Awesome!
I think if she wanted the piercing...than more power to her.

[Tonya]

LOL. I'm not into piercings thse days, so when I first saw it on her a few years ago, I was disgusted. It reminded me of a silver tooth at first glimpse. But, over time I have grown to love it. It's not to intrusive to me. (Unlike her stretched ears. )

I agree, she's a pretty girl, she has a beautiful smile.

I have mixed feelings about piercings. I think excessive piercing can be disgusting. Just my opinion. I have my ears and belly button pierced. That is about as brave as I get

I think your friend is pretty, I don't know why she would think that she would need a peircing there. I think that it would hurt! I find it gross.

Ditto. I'd possibly put a little diamond stud in my nose, but my husband would have nothing of that. He's a clean cut military boy. He hates tattoos and piercings.

I LOVE body piercings.. and I love guaged ears but, I agree with Soledad's comment.

Your friend is gorgeous and IMO, the peircing just ruins her pretty smile.

Yikes! Eww.

Good stuff! I'd look terrible with that in my mouth, but I think it looks good on her. I like piercings, but tatoos are way cooler in my opinion.

You know that litte flap of skin under your tongue that attaches your tongue to the bottom of your mouth? My friend had that pierced. Well, actually she pierced it herself.

Can she eat apples with that? It does look like it would hurt, if she bit into an apple.

She sure didn't need it, she is a very pretty girl.

My daughter has her ears, belly button and now her tongue pierced. She had her tongue pierced when she turned 18. I couldn't understand that! But she likes it.

Your still the prettiest one in the bunch Tonya.

cool!! i love it!! i have never seen a peircing there befor!!! wow what a neet idea!!!!

[G.P.girl]

i'm not sure i really like it. nose, belly, and ear percings are ones i would consider getting, but i think eyebrow perciengs look good on some people. but i don't really like the whole tounge/lip/gum piecings. is hers in her gums or in her lip? it seems like it would be claking against her teeth when she talks
