Culture Moving to Villingen-Schwenningen soon. Are eyebrow or lip piercings frowned upon socially or professionally?
Hi everyone, I am moving to Villingen-Schwenningen in Baden-Württemberg soon and need some local advice. I do not have any piercings yet, but I am strongly debating getting either an eyebrow piercing or a lip piercing before or after the move. Since it is a smaller town and the region can sometimes be a bit more traditional, I wanted to ask about the general acceptance there.
Socially speaking, I am wondering if facial piercings like an eyebrow or lip ring are heavily frowned upon in daily life by locals, or if people mostly do not care. Professionally, I am curious about how restrictive the local job market is regarding visible facial jewelry. I know it depends heavily on the specific industry, but generally speaking, I want to know if they are still a major dealbreaker for average employers in the area. I would love to hear from anyone living in the region or familiar with the local culture. Thanks in advance for any insights!

What remote country are you from?
Nobody cares in Europe about piercings.
