What is a centered eyebrow piercing?
1. What Is a Centered Eyebrow Piercing?
Unlike the classic outer-corner placement, a centered eyebrow piercing sits right in the middle of the brow. You can pierce one or both, pair it with other brow piercings, or let it shine solo. It’s all about symmetry and style.
2. Anatomy Matters
This piercing only works if your brow ridge is pronounced enough to support the jewelry. A flat or shallow brow ridge increases the risk of rejection. Not sure if you’re a good candidate? A professional piercer can assess your anatomy before proceeding. Always better to be safe than sorry.
3. Jewelry & Healing Timeline
-
Starter jewelry: A small, curved barbell with smooth ends to reduce snagging risk.
-
Swelling phase: Your initial jewelry will look a little long. This is normal!
-
Downsizing: Don’t skip it! Oversized jewelry can catch and irritate your healing piercing.
-
Healing time: Anywhere from 4 months to 1 year.
Once healed, feel free to explore styles like cones, gems, or circular barbells for a custom look.
4. Aftercare & Risks
-
Clean twice daily with sterile saline solution.
-
Rinse and dry with a clean paper towel and clean hands.
-
Avoid creams, oils, or harsh products.
Because it’s a surface-level piercing, centered eyebrow piercings can migrate or reject—especially if traumatized or placed poorly. At the first sign of rejection, consult your piercer and consider removal to avoid scarring.
Final Thoughts
Centered eyebrow piercings are a striking update to a classic style. With the right anatomy, proper care, and a bit of patience, this look can elevate your entire aesthetic. Happy piercing!
