bout four weeks ago I decided to get my other nipple pierced, I had had my left nipple pierced for about five months at this stage and my over-active brain had exaggerated the pain and thus I had put off having it done for quite a while. I was in town with a friend of mine when I decided to get it done there and then, I had already decided what I wanted, a vertical barbell through my right nipple; there was a ring through my left nipple and somehow I never liked the idea of symmetry. In fact this ...

ince i was 12 i had been begging my parents to let me get my tongue pierced. they always said, "not until you're 18". i had also been bugging them to let me get my tongue pierced, which they really hate. anyway, they finally agreed to let me pierce my navel. i checked out a lot of places, to be sure to find a very clean studio. there was one i really liked, but they wouldn't pierce me until i'm 18. i decided i would go to the place my cousin gets pierced at, even though it's not all that ...

As an artist, I have always been interested in anything concerning art. I enjoy not only drawing what I see, but, more importantly, creating things....looking to my imagination to guide me in what I do, in all aspects of my life. But, for many years, I have been searching for new ways to express myself through my art in new, different, and unusual ways....and that's when I discovered the wonderful world of Body Modification. Last year, a friend of mine introduced me to a new world through body modification....she was 18, and had already had her ears pierced in several ...

oday I got a septum piercing at Ars Subcutan in Mannheim, Germany. It's now about 6 hours old and still sore. :) I had had an information & counseling appointment on Saturday, three days ago, to clear all open questions, check if my nose was suitable for such a piercing and choose the jewelry. We then decided on a 10ga black anodized stainless steel retainer - Wulf (the piercer at Ars Subcutan) won't pierce septa (I was just told that's the correct plural for septum - so don't laugh please ;) at anything smaller than 12ga and since I want ...

This whole incident was completely unplanned. My friend owns a tattoo and body piercing shop, and we were there late one night; October 24, 1997. I leisurely asked him if he wanted to pierce my septum. He said sure. He has given me two tattoos, a small piece on my back and a large armband on my right arm, and pierced my tongue and my lobes, which I am stretching. He keeps a few surgical stainless wires around to make jewelry out of, so I made myself a 14ga septum retainer. After sterilization it was ready to go. My friend ...

have wanted to get my eyebrow pierced for about 4 years. Before I ever saw anybody that had actually had that done. I've always been fascinated by body piercings, and I just thought to myself " wow, my eyebrow would be a great place to get pierced. " My parents, however, disagreed. At this time I was only 14 years old. So I'd have to just wait. Finally, 4 long years later I was 18. I had to wait a few weeks after my birthday because I didn't have any ID. All the tattoo places in Memphis religiously ID everyone. ...

I don't know if this is okay because we had to do it ourselves. But I mean it seemed the only way to get it done, and after over a dozen new holes, none of them ever got infected and they all turned out well, so, I'm hoping that this submission won't be rejected and I'll be able to see how others' thumbwebs turned out. Anyway, my story follows. Thumb Web. When all this started all I had in the way of body modifications was a hole in each ear, and a small "J" scar done a few years ago ...

ad thought about getting both ears pierced a while ago. I hadnt seriously thought about it untill recently when I decided I wanted to pierce both my ears to 8 gauge. While I was deciding wether i would do this or not, i also began to think about an eyebrow piercing. I always thought eyebrow piercings look really cool, espically with a barbell. I decided I was going to go for it and get my eyebrow, and my ears pierced the next weekend. I had saved up the money, now all I needed was the time. I was in NYC, ...

remember as a child when I first became attracted to body piercings. My mother took a girlfriend and me to a carnival which was in town. As we wandered around the back lot we came across a tent, and through the open flap we saw a young mother nursing her baby. She smiled and invited us to come in. Immediately my gaze riveted on all the gold rings she was wearing. I had never seen so many rings, especially on one person. She had gold rings on her fingers and toes, and more rings pierced through her ears and nose. ...
