How To Unscrew Eyebrow Piercing

Getting an eyebrow piercing can be a bold statement, but there may come a time when you need to remove it. Whether you want to change the jewelry or simply need to take it out for an event, unscrewing an eyebrow piercing can be tricky. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to unscrew an eyebrow piercing without causing damage or pain.

1. Wash Your Hands

Before you touch your piercing, make sure to wash your hands with soap and warm water. This will help prevent the spread of bacteria and reduce the risk of infection.

2. Prepare Your Tools

You'll need a pair of clean, non-slip gloves and a pair of pliers to unscrew the jewelry. Make sure the gloves are powder-free and latex-free to avoid any allergic reactions. The pliers should be small and pointed to fit into the small space of the jewelry.
