   when you get it pierced, they ask if you want a ring or a curved barbell. i used the barbell because me and any piercing i have gotten with a ring never worked out.

   You can start out with either a ring or a curved barbell.
   Most piercers recommend that you use a barbell to start with because they don’t get knocked around as much.

   I waited about 3 months to change out from my ring, but you can just get it pierced with a barbell.

   When you get the original piercing you can request a ring or a barbell. If you have already gotten the piercing it is better to leave the original jewellry in for the full healing period. If however, you would really like it changed you should go back to the store which pierced you and have them change the jewellry for you so that they can put the new jewellry into an autoclave first. this will sterilize the new jewellry and reduce the risk of infection and scarring.
