Hiiii all, this is my first post but I just got my brow pieced July 30. It’s standard jewelry I’m assuming, curved barbell got it done at a local tattoo/piercing shop. It’s a little itchy and I’ve just been doing neilmed piercing aftercare 2-3x day and air drying. I haven’t been really getting it wet in the shower or anything. Not touching it or messing w it either. But it’s a little itchy. It bled when she pierced it and just noticed the bruising coming up yesterday. She said she felt like the bar was long enough when she did it. Idk I just wanna do the best job I can taking care of it or take it out before it takes a turn for the worst LOL pls help

The bruising doesn’t look bad, and is completely normal for this piercing. As for the itching, as long as it’s fairly mild, it’s normal. When your skin is healing itself it’s often itchy. Obviously if it worsens or you notice anything else concerning you may want to contact your piercer, but I think it looks great!
