A woman wrote to me:
I got this yesterday. It doesn't look like the other piercings.

My reply:
I'm afraid you have been given a very shallow hood surface piercing. You really should try to get your money back and you should take the jewelry out. It is definitely NOT safe to have such a small amount of skin pierced, especially with such a long bar. Even if you try to heal it, you're likely to find your body treats it as a splinter and ejects it. I would NOT trust the same piercer to redo it. Its abundantly clear that tea or she had absolutely no idea what to do or where to place a VCH piercing.
This page of my site clearly explains how the jewelry should go underneath your hood:

Where are you located? Perhaps I can suggest a competent professional in your area?
I marked your photo with what I call the "Inverted-V" of the hood. The jewelry should be coming out from underneath thereā¦.
The photo below shows proper placement for the VCH piercing and jewelry that fits well.






I am beyond thankful for this website and this picture! I had my VCH done a week ago today. I still have some swelling and some normal secretions, but no pain or tenderness. I was concerned about the healing and if I had gotten a surface VCH instead of a correctly placed VCH. After looking at this picture of a correctly placed one and looking at mine, I am confident I went to a great piercer who was professional and knew what he was doing! Thank you for making this website and having so many blogs, photos and professional responses!
Hey, Quick question. The picture you posted above of the VCH piercing with the proper fitting jewerly is an example of someone that does not have the anatomy for a christina piercing, right?
