I've had my ears pierced 5 times but one set of holes closed up on me, so four times. I had my nose done but I got a really bad sinus infection and my doctor recommended that I not wear it because I am forever blowing my nose, so I don't wear it (I also have a very short nose and my glasses were always hitting it). Thats all for me.

My best friend has her ears done 6 times, a nose ring, belly button, eyebrow, tongue and she had her lip done but it agravated her so much she took it out.

Where are yours? I can't think of enough places for 17!!

I said it before on here a little back, but I have my belly button, tongue, rook, and 2 in each lobe (used to be 3 but they closed) my first holes used to be gauged to a 2, but lots of bad stuff happened to say the least and it ended up in a bloody yucky mess, and closed up to a 14. For anyone that doesn't know what a rook is, this is it. It hurt about 500 times worse then anything else, and the girl that went before me had every imagineable piercing (yes, EVERY) she got her rook done before me, she walked out and said it even hurt more then her nipples!



It hurt so bad, I couldn't sleep on that side for over 4 months! But it is just sooo cute, next I want my conch.

p.s. Gothic_Amethyst the eyebrows don't hurt AT ALL neither did my labret
I've heard that with some people it hurts more than with others. My luck it will hurt. My second lobes I got a few weeks ago and it didnt hurt. I really thought it would, so maybe I'll be lucky and the eyebrow and labret wont either. I cant get them now anyway. I'm trying to find a job right now and I've heard they both take about a month to heal (including swelling) and If I work somewhere they need to be healed so I can take them out for work or put a clear one in.

I just went and got my labret pierced today! Let me tell you, it DOES NOT hurt! They make you swish around some really strong listerine for 2 minutes and then they mark the spot. They put the clamps on and pierce the needle through. I just felt pressure when the needle went in, nothing with the jewelery though. The piercer dropped the ball and had to re-sterilize it, then the stud fell out! He had to stick a larger needle through to strech the skin. That was painful.

I got a 14 guage titanium stud with a blue diamond! I love it!

Cool! I wish I didnt have to wait to get mine! I'm suprised it didnt hurt! I guess that's why I've heard they dont numb it first! You're going to go thru heck for a while with the aftercare. Good luck!
You should take some pics to show us!

Lets see, I have a tat on my right shoulder of a moon. I have two holes pierced in my left ear, three in my right and my bellybotton pierced. I am going to have to take that one out soon cause my tummy is going to get too big.

Lucky people who's labret piercing didn't hurt
Mine hurt SO much. The girl who pierced it did it so slowly, I think thats why it hurt so much. She did such a crappy job, and used so much vaseline to soften the skin that it fell out the next night when I was out at the bar and I had nothing to put in the hole, so had no choice but to let it grow over. The piercer only comes in on Friday's here, and this was a Saturday night. By Monday, it was closed up completely


So for now I'm only at one tattoo, and an eyebrow piercing. I DO have blue streaks in my hair though


My next adventure will include a tongue piercing and my nipples. I'm also toying the idea of getting a 'hood' piercing because my sister in law got it done and she loves it
She highly recommends it. So if I can get up a little nerve I'll probably get that too.

Next on the tattoo agenda is something written in Elvish on my back (think Lord Of the Rings)
