Facial Piercings and Wearing Glasses: How to Style Both with Ease
Overall, Facial piercings are an amazing way to express your individuality and elevate your style. From lip piercings to septum rings and nose studs, these can add a bold, personal flair. But if you wear glasses daily, you might wonder—can I rock my facial piercings and glasses without discomfort or an awkward fit? The good news is: absolutely! Industrial Piercings and glasses may not be the stand out look you're going for. But with a few tips and the right jewelry choices, you can effortlessly combine your favorite facial piercings with your eyewear!
Why Anatomy Matters When Getting Pierced Near Your Glasses
Your glasses rest on specific pressure points around your nose and ears. Piercings can sit too close to those areas. It can cause irritation, soreness, or even damage to both your skin and your frames. That’s why understanding your facial anatomy is key! Knowing where your glasses naturally sit helps you—and your piercer—choose piercing locations that won’t interfere.

-
Nose Piercings (Nostril & Septum):
Nose piercings and glasses are classic choices. Septum piercings, especially with clicker hoops like the Flat Teardrop Chevron clicker, offer smooth edges that won’t snag your frames. -
Lip Piercings (Labret, Monroe, Medusa):
Lip studs and rings can work comfortably with most glasses, but it’s best to choose smaller, flat-backed jewelry to avoid any hassle. -
Bridge Piercing:
Because this piercing sits at the top of the nose bridge, it can sometimes make glasses sit a little higher or feel tight. Lightweight frames paired with minimalist jewelry help ease the fit. -
