Not really, but that's not the point. Last year one of my best friends got her nose pierced, I liked it but I felt if I got it we would be too similar and it was also a little plain. During the summer I really started getting into body piercings but I had no idea which I wanted to get, plus there's the whole parents thing but my mom can't say much because she's the same way. During the summer I go to a lot of shows and 'course at concerts you're going to see some body holes, so I ...

This is supposed to be a story about my labret piercing, but before I can go into that I must say a few words on my history and my other piercings. I grew up in a very conservative house hold where my grandmother would say things like "Oh my!" when something "dirty" came on T.V. , and my grandfather would not let me ride by bicycle any further than just in front of the house until I was over twelve years old. I spent a lot of time in their house growing up because my mother was always working. Still ...

So I have been putting off getting my Labret done for the longest time. well, mainly because my boyfriend didn't really approved (he hates piercing, especially facial ones.)However, we talked about it and he said he will be fine with it so I didn't hesitate when he finally did approve of it! The only reason why he even said yes is because he hopes I'll get bored of it and takes it out just like I did with my eyebrow :) so here I am two and half weeks later telling you of my experience. I woke up to my ...

Chris and I wanted to get tattooed but the outcome wasn't looking good. We called a few reputable shops and none of them had any openings so we decided to go to Anchor's Tattoo in Burlington and see if we could fit in somewhere. We couldn't, so I decided to get a piercing or two. I decided on my cheeks. I had my cheeks pierced when I was 18 but due to a horseback riding accident, I got thrown into a jump and broke my jaw and chin and had to remove the piercings for x-rays. It was excruciating getting ...

I'm seventeen years old. I've wanted to get my lip pierced since I was thirteen. I used to go to a private Christian school, so I wasn't allowed to have any piercings besides my ears. I transferred to a public school for my senior year, so I decided to get my lip pierced over the summer. Mother agreed after a bit of convincing. She was afraid of what dad would think, but finally she said "okay". My birthday is in the middle of April, so I had to wait until the end of May to get it done. It was ...

I guess you could say that I was your stereotypical rebellious teen just looking for something different to do. I am 16, a junior at an art school and it isn't uncommon to come across tattooed and heavily pierced students. I would approach them and ask "did it hurt?" and all the usual questions just so I could get a closer look. There was something oddly alluring about metal through the skin. I have always loved lip piercings. Specifically, rings, but I knew that I'd have to start smaller. One night, as I was browsing through the pages here at ...

I've been interested in piercings and tattoos for a good long while, but had always been a bit apprehensive about getting them myself. I have been an off and on visitor to BME for almost 4 years now, and my interest only increased with time. I have piercings on my ears, and have stretched my lobes a bit, even pierced my ears a few times by myself, but I've always wanted a piercing that is a bit...unconventional. My friend Kat (IAM: PhenoBarbiDoll) told me she was taking a trip to Fairfax to possibly get a new piercing, or speak to ...

I finally did it. I got my lip pierced. I don't understand why I was so nervous about the whole thing to begin with. I had a Monroe before, so I don't know why I was so nervous about getting my lip done. I guess the thing that I was most worried about was whether or not the people at work would fire me or not. I work with a bunch of fuddy-duddy old men who wear the same 5 polo's every week, and even the slightest hint of change they freak out about. (You should see them if someone ...

Hello, My name is Brian. About a year ago I wanted a new piercing. I live in a small town that is not close to a shop. So I decided that I would pierce myself, bad idea. So I decided that a labret would work. I didn't have the jewelry so I decided to use a "tooth" from one of those little black combs. I cut it off as far down as I could go and then I melted it into a round bulb at the end. Then I got the needle ready by burning it and then putting it ...

Isn't it funny how sometimes the piercing you just got was the one you never thought you would get? This was the case with me and my madonna (a.k.a upper labret). It began over six months ago when I took my beloved piercing book to work, and my buddy instantly decided she wanted a monroe. Two days later, it was done. Two weeks later I decided to re-pierce my retired conch, which was the start of a whole lot of re-piercings for me as well as a couple of new ones. When the piercing bug bites, it hits hard. So ...
