what are snake bites piercings

Snake bites piercings are a type of body modification that involves two piercings on either side of the lower lips edge, resembling a snake bite. The piercings can be done with either labret studs or rings, and the jewelry options include circular barbells, flat back studs, seamless hoops, and captive bead rings. The cost of the piercing can vary depending on factors such as location, jewelry choice, and the piercers experience level, but it typically ranges between $60 and $120. Aftercare instructions include cleaning the area and following the piercers instructions. Snake bites piercings are not typically considered as painful as other lip piercings, especially those that go through the actual lip. It is important to choose an experienced piercer to ensure that the piercing is symmetrical and done correctly. The jewelry material is an important consideration since snake bite piercings are mouth piercings that will come into contact with gums and teeth. Therefore, it is recommended to use high-quality jewelry made of materials such as 14-karat or higher gold.
