If you’re looking for an eyebrow piercing in Staten Island or the NYC area, I offer precise piercings using high-quality jewelry selected for proper healing and long-term comfort.
I’m Paul, a professional body piercer with over 26 years of experience. Every piercing I perform is done with a focus on placement, jewelry selection, and long-term results.
What Is an Eyebrow Piercing?
An eyebrow piercing is typically placed vertically through the eyebrow, passing through the skin just above the eye.
It’s considered a surface-style piercing and is commonly positioned along the outer portion of the eyebrow, though placement can vary depending on your anatomy and preference.
Eyebrow piercings can be subtle or more expressive depending on jewelry choice and placement.

I’ve performed a range of eyebrow piercings, from clean, classic placements to more customized positioning based on individual features.

Jewelry Options for Eyebrow Piercings
Eyebrow piercings are typically started with curved barbells that follow the natural contour of the area.
Common starter options include:
- Implant-grade titanium curved barbells
- Internally threaded or threadless options
- Simple ends or small decorative designs
- Solid gold options when appropriate
Proper length and fit are important to allow for swelling while minimizing movement and irritation.
Heavier or overly decorative jewelry is best saved for healed piercings.
I follow safety standards supported by the Association of Professional Piercers to ensure proper placement, jewelry selection, and healing.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
Your appointment is handled in a clean, controlled environment. I’ll assess your anatomy, go over placement with you, and mark the area so you can see exactly how it will look.
Because this is a surface-style piercing, placement and angle are especially important for both healing and longevity.
The piercing process itself is quick, and I’ll guide you through each step so you feel comfortable throughout.

Pain Level & Healing Time
Eyebrow piercings are generally considered mild to moderate in terms of discomfort. Most clients describe it as a quick pinch with minimal lingering pain.
Healing typically takes around 2 to 4 months, though this can vary depending on aftercare and individual healing.
Because this is a surface-style piercing, it’s important to understand that movement and external factors can affect healing.
Aftercare Basics
Eyebrow piercings require consistent aftercare to avoid irritation.
Basic aftercare includes:
- Cleaning with sterile saline solution
- Avoiding unnecessary movement or touching
- Being mindful when washing your face or drying with towels
I’ll go over aftercare in detail during your appointment so you know exactly how to care for your piercing.

Who Is a Good Candidate for an Eyebrow Piercing
Eyebrow piercings work well for many people, but placement and lifestyle play an important role.
You may be a good candidate if you:
- Have enough tissue to support the piercing
- Understand that surface piercings can be more prone to migration over time
- Are able to avoid excessive movement or irritation during healing
- Can commit to proper aftercare
I’ll help determine the best placement and jewelry options based on your features and goals.
