How do I care for a lip piercing at school?

I've got 2 weeks off and I really want my lip pierced but I've heard it takes up to 8 weeks to properly heal. I'm worried that it will get infected in school because I can't use mouthwash at school after eating my lunch or whatever. I would rather not wait 'til the summer break, so how should I care for my piercing whilst at school if I were to get it done? Ta in advance.How do I care for a lip piercing at school?
Get a little bottle from the travel section of Wal-Mart or Target, fill it with sea salt solution (1/8 teaspoon non-iodized sea salt in 8 oz warm water) and keep that in your bag to swish with after you eat. Not a problem. What is stopping you from taking a bathroom break after lunch and doing it there?





If that somehow IS a problem, you will have to wait I guess?How do I care for a lip piercing at school?
I got my lip pierced and I went to school for 8 weeks, and it was fine. Just when you wake up, clean it well, and when you get home from school clean it again, and before you go to sleep. Just use mouthwash after every meal. If you eat at school don't worry, just clean your lip when you get home. Just clean it with whatever solution the piercer gives you once you get it pierced and you should be fine. :D Good luck
Why can't you use mouthwash after eating? Just bring some with you and swish in the bathroom. Or bring a water bottle that you can spit the wash into.





Or if that's really not possible, clean it when you get home. Obviously this isn't the ideal cleaning habit, but if it's the best you can do *shrug.*
