I'm sure this has already been talked about here before.

I mean, it's a popular topic, I guess.

Do you have any piercings? Want to get more? Why?
Don't want any piercings? Why not?

I currently have my ears pierced and my nose pierced. I want a septum piercing as well as my lip pierced. My aunt has a labret piercing and I've wanted one ever since as she looks so badass with hers.

Any tips for people getting new piercings? I always do months of research before settling on a piercing, but it always helps to hear advice from people who have piercings.

I love piercings! ...on other people. My ears are gauged but that's it. I am too afraid of needles and my pain tolerance is like -12. My wife has her eyebrow pierced and she used to have her lip pierced but it got infected and gross. The only thing I'm not a huge fan of are dermals. That's just a little too much for me. But I think it's so cool when girls have like a billion ear piercings and belly button piercings and nose piercings and all that good stuff. I say as long as you're confident with your piercings you'll totally rock them!

I'm not a fan of stomach piercings, though when I was going to get a piercing, I took into serious consideration that I could get my belly button pierced. But then I thought that would look trashy on me.

I'm more of a fan of facial piercings, tbh. :) I love my nose hoop right now, but I really want that septum piercing and lip piercings. I told my parents I'll be such a metal mouth one of these days because I want my lip pierced multiple times.

I have very low pain tolerance, but piercings actually don't hurt that badly. I thought I'd be crying in pain when I got my nose pierced, but it didn't even hurt that much. Just felt like popping a painful zit and then in half a second it was gone. No pain anymore. It felt really good, actually.

I am thinking about getting my ears gauged, but I have to do more research on it. My ears have been pierced since I was a baby. My parents had them pierced when I was a toddler and surprisingly, they never closed! All these years I've not worn earrings and they're still open. It's amazing. I've recently started wearing faux tapers, just to see if I'd like to look, though.

I have 4 holes in 1 ear, and 3 in the other...which I rarely adorn with earrings. I seem to have developed an allergy to some metals and my ears will swell and itch...even with hypoallergenic posts.
I would have liked to have my back pierced and laced to resemble a corset....but I'm kinda old for such things, now.
Stomach piercings only work if ya plan to have a tight, flat tummy all your life! ....old age takes all the elastic out of the skin....then the fat settles around your belly....then the belly ring hole enlarges.... Not the best look to be sporting at the nursing home! Lmao!
I like the bar-bell at the base of the skull look,...but, again, am kinda old to be wearing it! Lol!

I have had my ear lobes pierced a minimum of three times, but each time, they have closed. I cleaned them like I was told with the cleaning solution, but I guess I am allergic to all the earrings I tried. The only one I had slight success with was titanium, but I somehow lost one of the earrings, and the hole closed up before I could afford to replace it.

I wouldn't mind having them pierced again, but it seems like too much of a hassle.

I use to wear an eyebrow piercing & had a tongue piercing too but removed both due to the dress code rules at my 1st professional place of employment when I was 21. I do currently have 4 piercings in each ear lobe & buying earrings does get rather expensive. Plus I couldn't even begin to calculate how much money was wasted on the numerous earrings I've lost over the years.

Piercings

I have about five piercings but I'm still looking for more.'-' I think the most painful one I had was probably my nippy nops. . . I really wanna get the orbital and tragus piercings but I'm worried about having to take them out for work and everything. . . especially since I don't know if I'll be able to let them heal properly if I have to constantly take them out.

I had snakebites.
I took them out a couple of years ago.

Idk. First I wanted them because I wanted to be different.
I mean, I didn't wear the hoop earrings. Those were bleh and annoying.

I took them out because I already don't look my age.
And I just felt like people looked down on me? Or something.

But I do love regular earrings piercings.
I have two earrings in each ear.

I've always wanted to get the tip of my ear pierced but amg.
Piercing places cost too much.

I wanted a nose ring, so I stuck a big needle through my nose and put a ring through it. It was pretty simple, but I knew what I was doing. Rubbing alcohol helps, and keep your piercings clean and dry and they should heal fine.

Expect some swelling, at least for a few days, and if it's anything that gets bumped around or is in a sensitive area, expect it to take a little longer to heal. My nose took a good month to heal up, because I kept forgetting there was something there, and I kept banging it around.

I have no tattoos or piercings. If I do anything during a day I keep sharp objects away from me. Who wants to look like Pinhead from Hellraiser?

However, I do have a question for those who put those tiny rings along their eyebrows and that is are they planning on hanging miniature shower curtains there or what?

You're never too old for piercings, in my opinion!
In fact, I think piercings look cooler the older you get. I think the same with tattoos.

They look super amazing! I think those corset piercings look painful and I heard that they don't last long, but they look cool enough to me! :)

I have my ears pierced, one in each lobe. I had them pierced when I was 8 and I've worn earrings most of the time since.

I have a pair of fake organic plugs...but have hardly worn them.

I've worn odd earrings before, and one fake organic plug with a normal hoop earring another time...funnily enough, no one noticed or commented on it as far as I know.

I think a lot of piercings on the face is a little frightening to look at, but a few, like a nose piercing and eyebrow I think can look good.

3 in each lobe and scaffold in each ear. Tempted to get an industrial.

Scaffold goes ACROSS. Industrial goes DOWN.

Always tempted to get more especially the devil ribcage.

Just never wanted holes poked in me. Shrugs

I had a ton of peircings in the past, but I let them grow up for work. I had my septum, snakebites, all up my ears and my nipples done at one point. I'm hoping to get them all back soon, but I will admit I enjoy getting tattoos a little better.

I love piercings! Well, I love thoughtfully places piercings. As much as I love piercings, I don't like to see when people crowd their face with randomly placed piercings just because (which is something I see very often). I guess you could say people should think about how their piercings would look as a whole rather than thinking about them individually?

Aside from my ears, I have a septum and angel bites. I might get a labret sometime, but I'm not sure. There aren't too many other places I could get pierced on my face that would look right.

I want implants. Like big spikes sticking out of my head. That would be so cool. I used to be scared of piercings, but I'm not any more.

I have my ears and my lip pierced. I used to have many more piercings.

Make sure you go to a good place, one that follows the law at least. Remember that everyone's healing is different. I pretty much never cleaned my lip ring and it's perfectly fine. Cleaned my ears religiously and they keep on swelling up and stuff.

Idek how that works.

If you over clean your piercings it can irritate them causing inflamation.

I just have my ears done. Three in my right and two in my left ear. The highest one in my left ear got infected and I had to let it close up. For awhile I thought it was a keloid, but turns out it's not. Thank goodness!! I plan on getting it re-done sometime so I match again... I'd love to get my tragus done or an industrial. I've thought about doing my nose too, but that'd be it since I plan on teaching. :P
