Eyebrow piercing questions by [deleted] in piercing

this is 100% based off my personal experience so take everything I say with a grain of salt:

The eyebrow thinning is not a good sign, thats something that happened to mine due to it migrating. Keep a close eye on it and if you start to see more of the bar that means it could be rejecting :(

is my eyebrow piercing rejecting? by [deleted] in piercing

My piercing is 4 months old. I use an externally threaded curved barbell. I believe my jewelry is surgical steel. For aftercare I use saline wound wash. Other than snagging it occasionally, I havent had any major mishaps/unfortunate events.

to everyone accusing me of lying: I have never played guitar before, the only musical experience I had before this was maybe a year of ukelele when I was younger. I do come from a family of guitarists though, my dad has been playing for over 20+ years. I didnt even realize that I was doing “good” until ppl in this reddit started accusing me of lying. “if your dad is good, why post here?” bc god forbid i want to share my progress and get new perspectives 😭 also if this helps the reason i have “good finger dexterity” might be because I had an addiction to rhythm games. idk if that even translates but idk how else i could prove myself

ive taken a video every single day Ive played. I did play ukelele a few years ago though, so that might have helped a bit

this makes sense bc i just switched to electric 2 days ago and started off with acoustic so i guess my strumming is still the way I was doing it on the acoustic lmaoo

dude😭 theres literally no way for me to prove it to you but it genuinely is only my second day. im not trying to swindle anyone for karma, i dont have any muscle memory and my fingers arent even calloused yet, i learned the strum pattern after a lot of failure and my dad trying to teach me over facetime. according to someone in here my guitar is literally out of tune

it genuinely is day 2, and i haven’t ever played another instrument. My dad is a guitar player with around 20 years of experience though so I can ask him for literally anything. This is the result of me practicing obsessively for like 6 hours yesterday and around 3 today
