Question about eyebrow piercings

[greendaze5]

Hi y’all – has anyone here ever gotten an eyebrow piercing (or know someone who did)?

I’m curious as to how long it takes to heal so I can safely and comfortably take the metal bar in and out when I want? I have an ear piercing from some years ago, but I don’t remember how long that took to heal. I was going to get one when I was living/working in California, but when I got to nearby San Rafael, the place was closed for the Christmas holiday. I wish it wasn’t as I would’ve gotten it over and done with, instead of hesitating and putting it off like I do now.

To make a long story short, I’m off on vacation soon (Virginia Beach ), and am considering it again. Would the piercing heal in about a week while I’m on holiday? After that, I’m back to work, so ideally I’d like to take it out when needed. My workplace is pretty casual (I work as a medical illustrator), but nonetheless, I have to meet with ‘professional’ folks like doctors and clinicians now and then so I have to make a 'good impression.' . Also, I’m an altar boy on Sundays and on 2 week days. In these situations, maybe having such an obvious piercing won’t go over too well.

Anyways, if anyone knows what the general healing time is, please share. Thanks!
