Posted April 18, 2022 by body404

Piercing is a type of fashion that may enhance your looks and personality even without saying a single word. In ancient times, it seems that a lot of communities have always had piercings.

 
Body piercings are coming back nearly 5,000 years. Even though when the people discovered the oldest mummified bodies, they also found piercings on their bodies. Lips and tongue piercings cultures are more famous in ancient America, while the nose and ear piercings are popular in ancient Israel. In the past, piercings were a sign of wealthy communities.
So, here is a lookback of famous piercings that you can get even nowadays.

Ear piercings
The fashion of ear piercings came when people started showing off their ears by making different hairstyles. Ear piercing is getting famous from time to time, but it got out of fashion in the middle of the 1920s, and most people were irritated by ear piercings. Other than ear piercings, most people, especially women, wore clip-on jewelry instead of doing piercings in their bodies. The trend of clip-on jewelry extended to the 1950s.

Eyebrow piercing
People enjoyed the popularity of eyebrow piercings just for a short period. The trend of eyebrow piercings stuck for a few past years and went back to the age of 1990’s fashion. But if we talk about present age piercing trends, eyebrow piercing is not as common as most other piercings.


Navel piercings
Navel piercing is one of the most famous piercings that modern girls can even get. During the 1990s or 2000s, most college students started getting their belly button pierced, giving their personality an attractive look. The trend started when most of the singers and models came into being. But the ratio between men getting belly button piercings is less than women.

Tongue piercings
Like navel piercings, tongue piercings were extremely famous during the periods of the 1990s to 2000s. In the past, tongue piercing was more popular instead in the present time. Tongue piercing was mostly famous in Mayans and Aztecs. In ancient times people thought tongue piercing was a source of communication with gods, but nowadays, this trend is coming slow down, and tongue piercing does not help communicate with the gods. Even today, tongue piercing is a personal choice of people.


Famous Body Piercing
So, all the above piercings are famous body piercings that both men and women can ever get and have worth since ancient times, Including ear piercings, eyebrow piercings, navel piercings, and tongue piercings.
