Lip piercings are no new trend. In the U.S., a captive bead ring hoop decorating the bottom lip has been a staple in alternative cultures for decades. Historically, many tribal cultures around the world received lip piercings for cultural and religious reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, lip piercings have found new strides in fashion. There are around 17 lip piercing types, and many of these can be customized. The lips provide such an amazing canvas to work from, leading to nearly endless lip piercing styles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before you go to your piercer to ask for a lip piercing, you should know the lip piercing types so that you can ask informed questions. Here is a list of lip piercing types, healing times, and the jewelry that each type prefers.<\/span><\/p>\n

While most lip piercings pierce the skin surrounding the lips, the Ashley piercing pierces the lip itself. Its entry point sits at the center of your bottom lip with an exit point directly behind, inside your mouth. <\/span><\/p>\n

Healing time<\/span><\/h3>\n

10 – 14 weeks<\/span><\/p>\n

Preferred jewelry<\/span><\/h3>\n

Most with this piercing type wear flat disc labret studs. The flat disc backing sits flush with your lip and won\u2019t rub against your teeth and gums as much as other backing types. You can choose different charms and gemstones for your labret studs or stick with a simple ball end.<\/span><\/p>\n
