Anyone have/like piercings?

fit_becka

I have my ears pierced twice, my life, tongue and belly button.

I did used to have my nose and the top of my ear pierced but had to take them out when i started work.

(I also want a tattoo but still havent got it designed so havent got it done yet but i'm going to leave that as a treat for myself when i hit my goal weight not to mention it would look better.)

I love, love, loooove piercings. I currently have 14, but they are mainly on my ears. I did 7 of them myself. I still want more, but I'm broke and the ones I still want, I cannot do on my own. Anyway, I have: both earlobes pierced 4x each, right tragus, right helix, left cartilage, left rook, nose, and tongue. I had my belly button pierced when I was 16, after I had lost a lot of weight. My parents took me as a 'reward' for my hard work. I have let it close since then though. Not a very flattering place to be pierced when you are really overweight. I might reward myself with that again when I reach my goal. I haven't decided yet though.

Of all of my piercings, the tongue actually hurt the least. It was a bit uncomfortable while it was healing though.

I love piercings! I have 5 in each ear (lobe to cartiledge) and my right nostril. I tried for a 6th in each two different times, but I guess 5's my limit.

I also tried to get an industrial a while back, but was told that my ear is the wrong shape. I was pretty bummed. after examining my parents' ears, I concluded that it was my mom's fault... but what isn't? ;P

I have a tragus, monroe, nose, had an eyebrow, and my mother said she'd kill me if I ever ruined my $20,000 in orthodontia and dental work by shoving a $50 piece of metal through it, that she couldn't deal with it... And I had a boyfriend who had a couple once, and his teeth and tongue were never right afterwards.

Have 7 tattoos and waiting for my artist to come back into town...

My only rule is: I wont put anything on or in my skin that I wouldnt show in a church, in front of family, or respectfully in the workplace... I know I'm kinda weird!!

A monroe is just as likely to mess up your teeth as any other facial piercing that enters your mouth. It's more detrimental if you play with it. I've had my tongue pierced (and played with it) for almost 9 years now. The most damage I think I've done is chip an already chipped tooth even more.

I've had everything pierced but orbitals. My orbitals are too shallow. I have my ears gauged to a half inch currently. I've had 4 lip piercings, labret, nose, eyebrows, tongue (standard), tongue tip, tongue web, conch, 5 or 6 up each lobe, cartilage, industrial, nipples, belly button and one other. All but my conch were done myself (which I don't recommend). I miss them

If you get a monroe done properly it shouldn't mess up your teeth really... or maybe it's according to how your mouth is.. mine is flat against the top of my lip and it barely touches my teeth when I force my lip flat down... when I'm not trying to force my lip down it doesn't touch my teeth at all. I never had trouble with it (except changing it). But they have special jewelry you can use now it's called something bio.. it's not exactly plastic but it's like plastic and it's soft and flexible and a snug fit that doesn't do anything to your teeth.. and the balls are easy to slip in.

I like steel and titanium though, but I did try that bio stuff once and it's good! I just like the jewelry choices for the steel better (my piercing is a 14g.. not a like a normal 16g).

I've had it since I was 18, I'm almost 25 now. I had my labret pierced at the same time and still have it... it actually hovers over my bottom teeth for the most part... or just hits the tip.. I wear a extra long shaft there because I find small ones uncomfortable... haven't had problems with it messing up my teeth even though the shaft hits the top because it's so long.

I have had a tongue piercing for awhile and this is the only one I'd say actually hurt my teeth and it's NOT THE piercing's fault it's mine.. don't put it between your teeth to untwist the ball.. after awhile that files your teeth down... that was my fault! It hasn't actually hurt my teeth otherwise.. I never actually had it hit my teeth unless I was purposely playing with it.. but after awhile you get used to it and don't play with it as much and are more careful when you are.

Well that's my experience on those piercings.

The only piercing I reget ever getting is the bridge of my nose... it was crooked when they did it.. not tight and just all around done wrong. I took it out a few months later but it was to late... years later and I got a horrible crooked scar on the top of my nose.. which was ok until today.. my glasses covered it up for the most part but I'm getting contacts today and the scar is horrible!

Just remember that when getting piercings.. if you get one in an obvious place like that the scar might remain! My ear's (for the most part) and my eyebrows that had scars are gone now, so is my nose (that piercing was a pain in the butt, never again.. I kept accidently ripping it out in the shower... ).

I also have a scar on my wrist where I tried a surface pericing.. it only lasted about 8 months because it wouldn't heal correctly, but it never rejected. I don't regret this scar.. It's fading and actually in a werid way it makes me sad this was my favorite piercing and I miss it.. maybe someday I will get it again when I can go to a proper place to get it done.

I love piercings! I've only got 4 in each ear at the mo, used to have my nosed pierced but took that out.

I'm hoping to have two micro dermals on my temple this weekend actually, but i'm a little scared of the pain (im a wimp) so would love to hear peoples stories if they've had facial micro dermals before!

micro dermals leave scars

EmmileeJ

15 piercings so far, did all but nipples. I have snake bites, a monroe, 5 in each ear lobe, 5/8 gauge in ea. ear (going for an inch..), and my nipples pierced.

Tat wise: An Edgar Allan Poe chest piece, a start of a bio-hazard/gas mask/steampunk piece on right shoulder, and a tree that is curved into a peace sign on my left wrist.

Going to be getting 2 red microdermals as the eyes of my ravens in the chest piece and a bridge piercing in a couple weeks.

If I can lose enough weight, I want to get my hips pierced, and a corset piercing.

I love body mods =].

My husband and I both have our tongues pierced...He also has his labret and eye brow done too. I find it very attractive! I just have the belly button pierced. We both have tats but he is covered. I want MORE tats for sure!

NoahGayDaniels

I have four. Snakebites (planning to get spider bites on right side), nose and bellybutton. (: Also, I have my ears, but I don't really count those as "piercings". (: I want to do an industrial, my tongue and maybe my eyebrow. I love piercings!

alexairey

I have my left ear and I also have my labret done with a black star

koosdel

I had my tongue pierced but I took it out a couple of years ago. It actually didn't hurt when I got it done but I have a hard time comvincing people of that!

I don't really care about pain, because it goes away. It's only for the moment. Plus, I went through labor and then two c-sections.....piercings? Piece of cake.

Lol! Perfect!
The tounge is more shocking than painful, in my opinion.

StaceyL76

I have my ears and had my nose done but I took it out about a year ago.. I miss that. I have a tatoo on my back, plan to get another one.. not sure what yet.. but I do want another one.

sbwood888

I think the labret piercing is so attractive, but I am too old for that sort of thing. I would look ridiculous at 44 years old. Besides....my in-laws would faint.
I have my ears pierced 4 times---all in the lobes. I had a cartilege piercing but it kept getting infected, so after about three years I got tired of that and took it out. I have one tattoo on my back--it is over twenty years old and is losing the color. I need to have it re-worked. I have one scar on my chest from where I had an unattractive tattoo removed--literally excised. Who can afford laser removal?? :grumble:

DeathIsMyGift

I've had my tongue done. That was so 1990's. I took it out when I had my wisdom teeth pulled and just never put it back in.

I still have my lip pierced but I'm getting too old for it (I'm 31) but my girlfriend loves it and I don't really look 31 so....who knows. I may keep it for a few more years.

foreverjade

I just got my daith pierced yesterday!!!! Pretty painful but felt like nothing right after!!
Other than that, I've got my rook, helix and belly button

Driagnor

No piercings, but 3 tattoos, and just found the design for my next one. Want to make the booking in the next couple of days

Jellyphant

I have both ears pierced as well as my tongue, which is fairly recent AND didn't hurt at all. Healing was another story though.

I USED to want to have my tragus done, but I'm kind of leaning towards getting my navel pierced when I finally have a flat stomach.
The pretty dangly belly button jewelry are enticing..

MrsSorenson

I had my eyebrow, navel, two cartilige, two in each ear, and 2 tatts. I wanted my tounge and nose done, but never could because of work. I now rarely use any of the piercings. The tatts are on my back. I can't wait to get another. But that will be when I meet my ultimate goal weight! Got a ways to go!

Woodman725

Just my nipples. They are finally healed after almost 5 months, which is in the 3-6 month window she said it would take. I also make gauges for ears, see my profile pic. This is not me, but I did make the gauge from wood. I've made them as small as 1 Ga and the biggest was 1-7/8" (in the picture). If my profile doesn't have the photo, then it's in my pictures.

lizdavis07

i have my hip pierced....(and a lot more, but i think thats the most interesting)

Gemini80

I like them I have two sets in my hears and my tounge done. Thats all I want.

casey12105

I have my tongue, lip, 5 in one ear and 2 in the other. I used to have my eyebrow but after I had my son his favorite thing to do was headbutt it or grab and pull so I just took it out. And I used to have my bellybutton done but when I started gaining weight I took that out too. I'd like to get my nose pierced but my husband isn't feelin that.

JellyJaks

I just recently got my eyebrow pierced (it was my reward for losing 10 pounds.) The only other piercings I have are 3 in each ear but I plan to have more done. I'd like to get some spider bites and my nose pierced. When I finally get down to my goal of 140 pounds, I'll get my bellybutton repierced also. I currently hate the way my tummy looks so I don't want to draw attention to it...

McBody

I recently got a Monroe... and I love it.

StaceyDono

I have my ears done, 1 in my right cartilage, and I want an industrial on my left cartilage.

I have one tattoo so far, but really want more~! Just have to think of them first.

jonbobfrog

I have my earlobes pierced. I also have an industrial and an inner conch in my ears. My nose, nipples, belly button, tongue, and top girl parts are also pierced. I want snakebites but have a "professional" job and it was tough getting away with the tongue ring as it was.

I have 6 tattoos as well, and I have plans for a few more. One of them is really big, a back piece, that I'm going to get when I reach my weight loss goal. ) Can't wait!

StaceyDono

Good luck! x3

Steph_Marie29

I have my eyebrow and my ears. I did have my tongue pierced.

BioQueen

Hi! So I just got my navel pierced today - so excited! I love it! I am about half-way to my goal at 160 pounds (I was pretty happy back in the day at 150 where I was just at 'healthy' BMI range, although I'd like to go 5-10 pounds below that). But I thought that it would look okay with where I am at right now, and I adore it - so pumped!
