004b Labret Piercing

Dead centre, below the lip line, the labret is one of the oldest and most universally worn piercings in human history. From ancient Aztec nobility to every second person at a Converge show, it's been earning its place on faces for a long time.

The centre labret sits along the midline of the lower lip, just below the vermillion border, passing through at a neutral angle. It's clean, it's direct, and it works with everything from a septum stack to a completely bare face. A staple of alternative fashion and dark aesthetic dressing that doesn't need to announce itself.

Pierced at ALT CVLT in Frankston, Victoria. $50 includes the piercing and starter jewellery. Consult with your piercer on appropriate gauge and jewellery style for your anatomy.
