Ask Kayla Quinn

Jenny, I couldn't find any equivalent to "left ear buccaneer, right ear queer" rules for eyebrows.

I did find this, however:
• "The usual place to pierce the eyebrow is at a 40 degree angle from the outside corner of the eye, however, it may be pierced anywhere along the eyebrow from directly above the eye, to the edge of the eyebrow. The eyebrow should never be pierced further in than directly above the eye, because of the presence of the three major Supra-Orbital nerves, piercing one of these nerves can cause permanent damage.

  The piercing is usually done at an angle to make the ring sit better, if the piercing is done vertically it sits directly outward and has a greater likelihood of migration."

(Quoted from Wikipedia)

From experience, I can tell you that the cartilage, or tip of the ear piercing, is going to hurt. Go to a pro, don't risk it by trying to do it yourself. It will heal slower than the earlobe and the gold ring will get caught by your hairbrush far more often than you think...resulting in a jarring pain that races through your ear and down your neck!

Try getting your "good side" done...you know, the side you favor in photos!
