I just got out of a very serious two year relationship. When things in my life change, I have to take control. This usually occurs in the form of cutting/dying my hair, but this time I just didn't think that would be sufficient enough to cure the anxiety in my life. My best friend has the cutest nose stud, and I decided that a nose ring would look great on me. So, in passing I mentioned it to my dad, "What do you think about nose rings?" He replied, "I think you are beautiful the way you are, but you ...

By nature, humans strive to do what they feel is necessary, or in some cases, what they feel is right. I am a frequent viewer of BME, and of piercings in general. I aspire to be a piercer when I grow up, and I have a overly-decent amount of knowledge for nearly 50+ piercings. I am on BMEZine.com every single day, investing countless hours browsing photos and experiences when I should be indulging in the wonders of trigonometry or biomed. With that said, I hope you realize by now that I am a piercing-fanatic. Past: Let's rewind two years, give ...

I had never considered myself a body mod kind of person; in fact, I didn't get my ears pierced until I was 15 out of an unholy fear of the pain (since I have ridiculously low tolerance and sensitive skin). However, as my approaching 18th birthday became a reality, I began to think I might like to try a facial piercing. After thinking it through, I chose a standard nose piercing--after all, I reasoned, if it sucked, I could just take it out. They seemed pretty timeless and not too trendy, so if I decided I liked it, I could ...

Since I've come to university, every year I've got to get a new piercing. Its tradition. For my birthday last year, I was gifted a Monroe piercings (which will be a story for another day) and so this year I was considering either a tattoo or getting my septum pierced. A week or so before my birthday I woke up with an intense want to get a piercing. I spent all afternoon looking and obsessing about what one I wanted to get. Septum piercings I had always wanted, but I feel that not a lot of people can pull it ...

I would like start out by saying that Emanuelle is a fantastic body piercer and is now working in Hull Ontario. I don't know why I decided to pierce my nose, I had never really been attracted to it before, and it bothered me that it was becoming so popular, but I felt like piercing my face. Now, oral piercings have always concerned me what with tooth chipping and gum receding. Eyebrow piercings, were never really my thing. I was seriously considering my septum, but with my current job that would just not fly. I decided to pierce my nostril ...

When I was 17, nostril piercings intrigued me. Every night, I'd sit and browse pictures on BME and wondered if it would look good on me. 2 days later, I found myself sitting in a piercing chair with a needle sticking though my face. Surprisingly, it didn't hurt. Just made my eyes water, which is normal. Without thinking and being high on adrenaline, I chose a cbr to be placed through my right nostril. Getting it in was a bit tricky, but soon enough, I had a purple ring through my nose. First thought was "oh dear God, what the ...

In March 2007 my younger sister was hit by a truck while crossing her street at a zebra crossing. She suffered major injuries, including a broken and dislocated spine, major internal bleeding, two breaks in her pelvis, broken wrist and ankle and a broken nose. Her nose naturally was the least of anyone's worries, even more so after she became seriously ill with pneumonia. Now there's a time limit on resetting a broken nose, two to three weeks and then it becomes impossible. At two weeks and six days, my sister was with it enough to go down and try ...

My first impressions of being absolutely fascinated and speechless with a sight of a pierced human flesh date back to my very early age. Further on it gradually developed in something like a mania: each time I saw someone having more than one pair of regular earrings it just sent shivers down my spine. Particularly assuming the fact that I was born and passed my first 7 years in the Soviet Union where piercings were a norm only for women in a quantity of one hole per ear. All the rest was considered either a barbaric heritage or a pernicious ...

I've never been a fan of septum piercings, I'm not sure why, I guess I just thought they were a little bit ugly and out of the ordinary. But somehow, over a period of time I was swayed into liking these piercings. I cannot say exactly why I began to think about getting my own septum pierced, but I can make an educated guess that the exposure to them I got on Bme helped me to understand and appreciate them a little bit more. This piercing hasn't been on my list of to get piercings for a whole lot of ...

My first experience with a septum piercing was about 2 ½ years ago, and also self done. I had seen pictures of it online before and I loved the way it looked. Unfortunately, I had a mother who wouldn't allow any piercing besides my ears, with the exception of a Monroe (Which is a different horror story all in its own- though that was the fault of a horrible professional, I did not do it myself) that she only let me get out of spite for my father. And my dad? He practically disowned me just for the Monroe alone, ...
