big gaping holes in your body Options

[willow-x3]

Im actually getting "venombites" done, which is two lower lip piercings done side by side

my bf got them done last year :D

look amazing and he said they did't hurt much

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

Ugh - I think piercings are disgusting and don't understand the point of them. I've got friends with piercings all over their face and they're gaging their ears - ugh. I just don't understand the appeal! Next thing you know, it'll become trendy to sew your mouth shut!

don't see a point in decorating your body to stand out...you're beautiful the way god made you. Why change it?

Sorry darlins, but no one asked for the a negative opinion. If you're not going to help with the questions I asked, then why post here ?

I happen to think SOME piercings look beautiful and go well with certain people. But there are some people who wear piercings wrong somehow, and it just isnt natural and are hella ugly.

and Willow - did your bf get them done at the same time ?

Only thing I have pierce is my ears and it didn't hurt at all but it did itch for some reason

Nah he had snakebites but he got them like a month later

[cyb3r0ptik]

you cana get them done with studs or hoops,
however you're going to want to get them done with hoops to begin with for the first few weeks, to allow your lip to swell... swelling is actually a very important process during healing.
to limit the swelling by means of jewelry is going to aggravate it and cause some problems.

not to impose opinions, but have you thought about side-by-side vertical lip piercings?
are you planning on a left side, right side, or in the middle?

also, have you ever checked out http://www.bmezine.com?
they have pictures (limited to i think 75 pics total for non members), and user stories about getting piercings and/or tattoos.

great place to check out if you're interested in something new :)

good luck!

i have my ears twice, my belly and my nose...i have had my ears 3 times but they got infected and i had to take em out, same with my catilage. my belly hurt, but i didn't cry...i almost passed out though cause i hadnt eaten all day...then my nose was a breeze. i hardly felt it and i have a low low low pain tolerance. i think the worst piercing pain wise was my cartilage...i wouldnt imagine that snake bites would hurt TOO bad at first...but maybe after when you gotta eat and talk and stuff...i dunno...i wanna get the marylin monroe type thing done...it looks like a beauty mark...but its a cute little stud....but i would only get that if i took my nose ring out cause that would just be too much i think...good luck with your piercing!

I find this funny BECAUSE...in the bible it was part of marriage cermony to get your nose pierced...they talk about it in the old testiment

"He had seen the nose-ring and the bracelets on his sister’s wrists, and had heard Rebekah tell what the man had said."
Genesis 24:30

"Then at last, when the camels had finished drinking, he took out a gold ring for her nose and two large gold bracelets [ Hebrew a gold nose-ring weighing a half shekel [0.2 ounces or 6 grams] and two gold bracelets weighing 10 shekels [4 ounces or 114 grams].] for her wrists."
Genesis 24:22

Piercings come out...they leave tiny little scars sometimes, but really, they arent a huge deal and I don't think God will scorn us for them. Piercings (when done correctly and tastfully) don't take away your beauty, but they accent it. Saying that you shouldnt decorate your body because you are ruining what God made would mean that you can't wear makeup either, and you shouldnt wear jewelry and you shouldnt cut your hair, and you shouldnt shave...it all falls into the same boat...so...yea

I only had my lip done this past saturday (it's monday) and i love it. I love the way piercings look all around. it adds an edgyness and a statement that you own your own body and you will do with it what you please. I only got the left side of my lip done and i was going to get snakebites, but now im thinking of getting venombites instead.

Nice!

Maybe I should get my nose pierced for marriage instead. :P

I cant have any piercings cause my body always ends up trying to close them up.


Not even my bloody ears

it's possible it's a type of allergic reaction to the jewelry...
have you tried in gold, silver, or other nickel free jewelry?

also, there are parts of my body that can NOT take piercings.

i can get my ear lobes done, but cartelidge is impossible. the few times i've gotten it done, it's closed right up. actually tried to swallow the earring.
i've also never been able to have a bellybutton piercing heal on me. ever. and i've had it done a few times.
all i have to show for it are a couple of scars.

[Lolitakitty]

I only have simple ear piercings. I'm getting second (and hopefully third) ones next month.

I really want a nose piercing. Or lip.

[*CowerPointyObjects*]

Yesterday I accidentally stuck both of my right earrings in the same hole and didn't notice until this morning. But that did explain the pain...I just figured my second holes needed to be cleaned.

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

I will ! Im so excited ! These are the first facial piercings my mom is letting me keep haha. WHOOOOOO !!! If they had a smiley bursting from excitement, it would go HERE !

[transcendentalis...]

i want a nose stud! my parents might destroy me though :(

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

I got it ! It barely hurt, just a sharp pinch at the very end then afterwards it was alll good. My piercer was aweeeesome, i hella love her ! Im def making that place the only shop I go to. Pics sooon !

[y0urelectrikk]

I had snakebites too, which I did myself. I think if I got it done professionally it would have hurt less..because when I do it I take forever just to get the needle though[like 10 mins], whereas if you get it done professionally its over in a matter of seconds. I let one of them close up though, so now I'm just back to one side pierced. they were a little uneven so it reallly bothered me.
also just did my eyebrow yesterday. Its still really swollen, and I just have a needle chillin there, waiting for the swelling to go down before I put the actual eyebrow ring thingger in.

i think the worst piercing pain wise was my cartilage...i wouldnt imagine that snake bites would hurt TOO bad at first...but maybe after when you gotta eat and talk and stuff...i dunno...i wanna get the marylin monroe type thing done...it looks like a beauty mark...but its a cute little stud....but i would only get that if i took my nose ring out cause that would just be too much i think...good luck with your piercing!

I thought the worst was my ear cartilage too. Its the only one that actually bled. Lip didn't bleed, eyebrow didnt bleed.
When I did my snake bites. I dont remember it being hard/painful to talk or eat..but idk, I can't remember too clearly.

d00d, I want a monroe too, they're so cute. Idk if I'd be able to pull it off though.

[livwho]

I'm having my belly button pierced!

One of my friends got double lip rings (not sure what it's called), and they turned out hideously. Mostly because he has gargantuan lips.
