When can I change a lipring?

I had my bottom lip pierced last Friday and was wondering how long I should leave the stud in for?
I wasn't really listening to the piercer because I was in shock when I had it done.
Oops.

you should leave it in for 2-3 weeks before taking it out. my freind got hers peirced and thats how I know

They should have given you a paper with more than enough instructions for after care. If they didn't, I'd never go back there ever again.

I don't know about the 2-3 weeks thing. If you got your lip pierced, you sort of just leave it in indefinitely, right? Why take it right out after 2-3 weeks? I had my nose piercing in for about 6 months and took it out for two hours for a facial and couldn't get it back in. It closed up within the day! Call the place you had it done, ask again for instructions.

well my boyfriend got his done bout 10 or 11 months ago, and when he takes it out it dont really grow back but he has to still push it throu and it still hurts cause it gets a little tighter
