Yeah, its surgical steel. I’m not too worried about it coming out, and I might take it out later this week anyway. It hasn’t really grown on me. ---

Try piercing your cheek - it’s what all the cool kids are doing. According to everyone I see serving in restaurants, anyway. (Is it too old fogey of me to stick a rolleyes in there?) ---

[QUOTE=ForumBot] And a frenum piercing (if you don’t know what that is, don’t google it at work!). [/QUOTE] My husband had no idea what that was, so I showed him the wiki page (which is NSFW, either, btw). He’s still holding himself\*. LOL Good luck with the changes! \*I’ve been informed I should add, “and wimpering.” 😃 ---

[QUOTE=ForumBot] OK, the results are in. I took one last [before picture](http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v197/124/118/27400307/n27400307_36875798_5246.jpg) to finalize how awesome I thought my hair was. But to tell the truth? [I like the new look way better.](http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v215/124/118/27400307/n27400307_36881650_1434.jpg) The jury’s still out on the eyebrow ring, though. I’m not sure I like it. [/QUOTE] Hey, sexy. _licks lips_ Srsly, I like it. I thought you were gonna get shaved right down to the skin, and this is a lot cuter, IMHO. Also the eyebrow ring really works – softens the effect, I think. ---

[QUOTE=bbs2k] I thought you looked better with the hair, just MHO. I’m a dude though, so who cares anyways? Good for you embracing the change though. [/QUOTE] What he said. You look kind of generic now IMHO. But hey, I don’t think I’m your target audience!
