My only piercing experience until two days ago had been a total botch-job of what should have been a completely simple standard ear piercing session at a well-known posh ladies' boutique when I was 11. On that day, I'd waited for over an hour to be pierced, nervous as hell, before being told that the piercer had gone home early. The manager then came out, on his lunch hour, and said he'd do it for me. He had no piercing experience, didn't clean or mark my ears, and just shot two studs into my lobes as he saw fit. Needless ...

I've always liked the look of navel piercings, I can't remember seeing one for the first time but I remember always thinking they looked ace whenever I saw them and it was always something I thought I would get in the future, I just never thought about it that much. I'm pretty much a complete wimp with pain, before my navel piercing I'd already chickened out of getting my ears pierced when I was younger and I only got them done last year.(when i was 15) Once my boyfriend and his mum finally persuaded me to get them done and ...

I had my navel pierced approximately 6 months ago, in December 06, at Primitive by Idil. I shall spare you the usual stuff about parents, but most importantly, I would recommend would-be-piercees to do their homework! Having surfed on the Internet for about 2 months leading to the piercing to check on other's experiences, I thought I knew everything there was to know about piercing, but I was very very wrong. Well, the piercing process went quite alright. Idil had the jewelery sterilized, had a single use needle, had gloves on. Since all the tools were on his tray, he ...

First semester in college I started dating this guy with a LOT of piercings (by my former definition, anyway). He had his tongue, septum, snake bites, stretched lobes & daiths in each ear, and one dermal punch in his cartilage when I met him. At some point, the metal just started taking over my thoughts. I had wanted my lip pieced for like three years. But the agreement with the padre was that as long as he was paying for all aspects of life, tattoos & piercings were STILL forbidden... (He'd never really been happy about the three holes in ...

There's some back story to this one; I had wanted something else since the VCH a couple of years back. I wanted something that would be easy to hide if required, but that was a little more socially acceptable to show off than the VCH itself. Hah. I decided that somewhere around the navel was by best bet, and the other half suggested that an inverse might suit me. Inverse eh? That sounds a little more "out there" than the trillions of fourteen year olds that had a standard one done a couple of years back. Not that I'm particularly ...

Yesterday I had my first ever surface piercing done. Aside from that I've got two lobe piercings, one helix, my nostril, and navel. So, I didn't really have any idea what I was in for pain wise. The first time I ventured to Surfers Paradise (which is crammed with piercing and tattoo studios) I had no luck finding someone prepared to do a surface piercing. They either didn't have the equipment, the experience, a piercer in on that day, or had a problem with my age (I'm fourteen). I went again the next weekend and at Off Ya Tree I ...

I turned eighteen 6 days ago and when you turn that age I guess something clicks inside of you. You tell yourself I really need to do something just because I turned eighteen. I guess piercing my belly button was top on my list and a tattoo is a little too permanent for me right now. I looked online to figure out how other people cleaned it and how much it hurt. I was amazed actually at all the different responses so... I decided that I was actually not going to take the word of a bunch of people I ...

I got my navel pierced in February of 2005. I had turned 18 a month before, and the boyfriend at the time decided he wanted his ear pierced. He chose a shop that I've never really been comfortable in; my mother married into the family who owns the shop, and when you're related to them and they can't remember your name, that doesn't exactly put me at ease. I did everything wrong. I was easily 50 lbs overweight when I walked into the shop that afternoon, and to disguise it as best I could, when I held my shirt up ...

Hey. I just got my belly button pierced, and I'm here to share my amazing experience with you. Well to let you in on a little about me, and almost 15 and a huge wimp when it comes to pain and needles. I passed out when I got my ears pierced. I have always been fascinated with body piercing and tattoos since I was 8. That's when my mom get her first tattoo, and let me go with her. Seeing all the unique people really got me interested in it all. So, probably when I was 11 or 12 is ...

This experience happened almost three months ago at the end of February. Me and my friend went to west Edmonton mall to go graduation shopping. Before the day we talked about getting a piercing done each but we weren't firm on the decision. Anyways, we went there and she found her grad dress and I didn't. We then went to go and eat(I remember from my tongue piercing that they make sure you eat beforehand). We talked about it with our moms and decided that we were going to get pierced. I was actually surprised because my mom is so ...
