Pierced cosplayer here: a lot of the time I leave my ear jewlery in if I think my wig will be covering/wont stand out too much/get lazy. I have a retainer for my lip piercing but the gauge is a little thin (so it hurts to put my normal jewellery back in), I lost one of the ends for it, and it's kind of a pain to put in/take out.

Plus some characters actually suiting piercings, even if they're non-canon. I leave my lip piercing in for Striders and Meenah, but usually make more of an effort with it for cosplays like Jake/John where it's highly unlikely and a little odd for the character to be pierced.

But this is just for conventions and photoshoots really. If I'm just taking a picture at home or something? I don't really see any reason at all to take it out.

I am also a total sucker for Tavros cosplayers with septum piercings, I must admit.
