Sam Ward Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 well ive spoken to mummy and she said that she wouldnt be happy about it. but thats mainly health reasons all of which ive picked apart, naturally. i said "so youd rather i came back with a tatoo that if i decide i don't like im fukked" she said yes of course her biggest problem like i said was health issues. one of wich was taste. and the teeth. she also said that the only people she knows with them only took them out because they didnt like them so she really didnt have a viable argument. she also realises that i can get it done anyway so theres not gunna be a massive ruck which wouldnt make it worthwile so again i know a few people on here live in portsmouth/IOW so if you know anywhere thats good. hopefully you all say withit because my my step bro starts his work experiance there tomorrow so it be done on the cheap aswell. quite excited now WOOP WOOP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Thomson Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Being the poor student that I am with nothing to do, i've kept on getting piercings much to my body's disgust. Currently sporting: Left transverse lobe - 1.6 bar Left random bit of my upper left lobe - 2.4 labret stud Left Upper cartilage now stretched to 5mm Right conch - 3.2 plug Sternum Microdermal Please be advised stretching your cartilage is foolish haha. I'm not taking it any further as its a pretty silly thing to. Microdermals rock my socks Good story related to piercings actually, was down at the shop a wee while ago, took my t shirt off to get my nipples pierced and dislocated my shoulder and ended up in hospital getting reduced there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Scarlet Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Anyone know what the age is to get a simple lobe piercing done?I'm assuming its 16 without consent of parent, I want to get my other lobe done so I can eventually stretch it.

Dr. Nick Riviera Posted July 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 I'd say 16, anyone willing to do it to anyone younger probably sucks.make sure you get it done with a needle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr ailsbury Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Hot needle? any particular reason?'Cause having it done with a gun hurts twice as much? well it did when I got one of mine done anyways lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nick Riviera Posted July 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Hot needle? any particular reason?No, just a standard piercing needle, guns should be avoided because it basically brute forces forces a blunt stud into your ear which makes a messy wound which is prone to scar tissue. and also guns cannot be sterilised so if one of the little scrags down Claires happened to have hep c, as the circus would say UR SCREWED. Anyone who does it with a gun is not a piercer and should be avoided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr ailsbury Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 haha it was claires where I had mine gunned lol, it go infected, swelled up and pussed everywhere lolWent to a 'proper' piericist that said there is an ingredient in the claires cleaning stuff that can aggravate the wound which is why it went all gammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoo Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Had the other side of my lip pierced today, can't wait for it to heal now so I can have two petrol/pearlescent colored rings in them. Gonna have my other ear pierced soon so I can stretch it to about 7mm and then stretch the one I already have done to 14mm, very nearly had my nipple pierced lol.
