Ohmanohman, if you're going to do a DIY piercing, make sure you're piercing it with a hollow needle (you can buy one online, or take the needle off of a syringe), and make sure both the needle and the area you're piercing are cleaned with something like medical alcohol.
Also use salt water after, to clean+make it heal better.
And don't just shove random metal in, get surgical or stainless steel, or titanium. They're better for fresh/healing piercings.
A lip is safer to DIY-pierce, because supposedly you're more likely to hit a nerve, and/or get complications with an eyebrow than a lip. And that wouldn't be fun.
Andwhen/if you're piercing your lip, feel around where you're piercing, and make sure you don't hit a major vein (it's hard to miss if you feel for it).
Goodluck! :J
