What do you guys think about.., self piercing? Options

[HelloSunshine]

Well..a couple of days ago a girl in seventh grade was planning to pierce her tongue. She already had the tongue rings and such, she just needed to pierce it, without her parents knowing. When I found out what she was doing it with, a push pin, I was in shock. I mean, it was really unsanitary, and it would've needed sterilization. Turns out she chickened out, like all my friends thought she would.

The point of this topic is what do you guys think about self piercing?
I think it's fine if you know what to use and that you're under parental supervision, I suppose, if you need it

I don't see why you would need a piercing...but that could be scary. Especially for myself. I don't handle pain or blood well, and knowing myself as I do, I would screw it up. Yeah, better to leave it to people who have the tools and skill to get the job done.

i know a guy at my school who pieced his nipple . O.o;;;;... -_______________________________-;;


then later that day, someone hit it really hard and he bled like hella . if you're gonna get a piercing, please do it correctly/professionally. lol

[inthemudhole]

Yeh. This girl at my school tried to pierce her own belly button once.
If you're going to pierce yourself.. do it professionally.. and if you're not allowed, then just wait..

I think it's okay if you know what you're doing. But a push pin..?? INFECTION!!

I agree, I wouldn't be able to handle it. My friends and I were wondering why in the world she would want a piercing anyway.

yeah i don't suggest self piercing, my friend pierced her belly button with a tack once at my house, is will most likely get infected, so it's just better to wait..

Well for me, I had my ears pierced till I was 4 and it KINDA closed up, but it turned out it didn't close all the way because I was trying to wear these earrings I thought were pretty, and I could still see the mark where my piercing used to be, so I kept pushing the earrings in and they finally went through. So if you call that self-piercing, it's not that bad. I haven't gotten an infection yet.

[*tyedyefroggy*]

Self piecing shouldnt be done, at all! You're never sure what will happen in the future, meaning like swelling, infection, blah blah blah. ONLY Professionals should be allowed to do the piercing. Its common sense.

[imafreakinazn]

self piercing is gross and unsanitary.
:P

[Chaos13]

its very bad and very unsanitized. for some reason i want my left ear pierced again cuz its closed already. should i?

[angel-roh]

Well as long as you don't get STDs. Sharing needles is a bad thing. Well I don't know if the sharp objects you used is what you share with others, but you know it's bad haha.

Well my friend actually self-pierced herself and she knows the rules of the STDs. So right after she used it, she threw it in the trash can. So after you self-pierce, you gotta threw it right away before someone touches it and use it.

[Levy2k6]

i'd rather go to a "professional", lol.

Piercing yourself is kinda stupid, especially if you have no clue to what you're doing.
Just go see a professional when you are older, I see no point in piercings other than earrings.

Levy2k6; don't double post, it's really really really really bad on forums.

self piercing is gross and unsanitary.
:P

exactly, that's so wow...

umm...i don't think people pierce themselves with those kinds of needles...and i think it's aids you get from infected needles...but the person who used it has to have the hiv or aids virus

[iheartsimba]

eh i dont care. i dont do it at all, but if they wanna why not.

my bestfirend last year peirced herself like daily..it was like some version of mutillating herself..she had so many peircings. i could never do that

[x-hobo-x]

my bro had an ear peirced.... gun shot ^^
and i hear it doesnt hurt!! o.o ~~lies..

[lostintheclouds]

this girl i know pierced her belly button with a safety pin ouch.
she said it didnt hurt, but she obviously wasnt sober at the time x]P

anyway, i think its stupid. there's a big enough chance of it getting infected by a pro let alone doing it yourself.

[kellyannie]

My friend pierced her belly button and tongue by herself, and it turned out fine. So I guess it just depends on who does it... but I would prefer getting it professionally done

[juliar]

it's called go to claire's for ears and piercing parlors and such for other areas. you don't want to end up getting an infection on your tongue.

push pins are bad.

[mizz_mithy]

about a month ago i went into the girl's bathroom and there was this girl trying to pierce her belly button. it was nasty. self piercing seems nasty and gross. i sure wouldn't do it.

[Skyline Drive]

When it comes to piercing the tongue.. it should definately be done by a proffessional because you can hit the wrong nerve and that definately won't be a good thing. I think it is alright do self piercing when it comes to ears , but anything besides that I think it should be done proffessionally.

[silver-rain]

eh, i can't imagine piercing myself. i would rather get it done professionally.
