When I was a teenager, I got my nose pierced. I loved that piercing so much. I thought it looked adorable and I was so happy with it. However, my body rejected it, and started growing this lump behind the piercing, and then eventually started growing over it so I had to take out the piercing.

So then I got my eyebrow pierced, wasn’t as cute as the nose, but it was fun at the same thing happened. This bump started growing under the skin of my eyebrow, and then eventually almost looks like a zit coming from my eye eyebrow. I took out the piercing and it went away.

In both instances, I regretted having a piercings. It was the right idea to take them out because clearly my body couldn’t take it. I think I still would’ve like the nose piercing. I probably would’ve taken out the eyebrow, but I liked the nose.
