How to Remove an Eyebrow Ring

How to Remove an Eyebrow Ring



Great news is you landed a new job, bad news is they're not too keen on the eyebrow ring. Removal is fairly simple and relatively pain-free, but expect the hole to leave a permanent mark.







Things You'll Need:





Ponytail Holders



Antibacterial Ointments



Antibacterial Soaps









Step
1



Begin with clean, dry hands. Clip any bangs away from your eyes, and pull your hair back into a ponytail.




Step
2



Make sure that you have enough light to see what you're doing, and that you have enough room to move your elbows freely around your head.




Step
3



Grasp the ball of an eyebrow ring using the index finger and thumb of your strong hand. Then pinch the ring's body - where it enters the hole - with the index finger and thumb of your opposite hand.




Step
4



Pull the ends gently to create a space where the bar can slip out of the ball. Slide the bar out of the hole, keeping the ring close to your brow and the tension as relaxed as possible.




Step
5



Use your weak hand to grasp the stationary end of an eyebrow barbell while you grip the removable ball with the index finger and thumb of your strong hand. Twist counter clockwise to remove the ball, then gently pull the bar through the hole.







Tips & Warnings









Before you begin the removal, tilt your head into different positions to see which angle works best for you.








Enlist the help of a friend with a gentle touch and non-squeamish nature if you realize you cannot see what you're doing. If you're out of resources, the person who did the piercing may be able to fit you in for a free removal.








Consult with a physician if you must remove your ring and you notice an infection. If you remove it while the area is infected, you may trap bacteria in the hole when it begins to close up.








Do not jerk or pull too hard or you may rip your skin.








Dab a pinhead-size amount of antibacterial ointment on the holes if you notice trace amounts of blood.
